Food Sorting Machines
Food sorting machines identify and remove selected defects or foreign material through sensing, classification and separation.
Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Optical, laser and other sensing methods respond to different material characteristics. Conveying or free-fall presentation influences what the sensors can observe.
A low defect escape rate and low good-product rejection are different targets. Product variation and throughput can change the balance.
What turns activity into demand
Food sorting machines separate products using detected characteristics, with feed presentation and rejection affecting yield.
The commercial boundary
Separate sorting equipment from inspection-only instruments and full processing lines.
