What is optical sorting in food industry

Color sorting, often referred to as color separation or optical sorting, plays a vital role in numerous industries such as food processing, recycling, and manufacturing, where the accurate sorting of materials is critical. In chili pepper industry, for example, pepper sorting and grading is a meticulous process essential for upholding quality standards in spice production. By evaluating color, size, density, processing methods, defects, and sensory attributes, producers ensure that each batch of pepper meets stringent industry criteria. This commitment to quality not only enhances consumer satisfaction but also strengthens market competitiveness.

At Techik, we elevate chili pepper color sorting with our cutting-edge inspection and sorting equipment. Our solutions are engineered to go beyond basic color sorting, also identifying and removing foreign materials, defects, and quality issues from both raw and packaged chili pepper products.

How Techik Color Sorting Operates:

Material Feeding: Whether it's green or red pepper, the material is introduced to our color sorter via a conveyor belt or vibrating feeder.

Optical Inspection: As the chili pepper passes through the machine, it is exposed to a highly accurate light source. Our high-speed cameras and optical sensors capture detailed images, analyzing the items' color, shape, and size with unparalleled precision.

Image Processing: The advanced software within Techik's equipment then processes these images, comparing the detected colors and other characteristics against predefined standards. Our technology extends beyond color detection, also identifying defects, foreign materials, and quality discrepancies.

Ejection: If the pepper material fails to meet the set standards—whether due to color variations, the presence of foreign materials, or defects—our system promptly activates air jets or mechanical ejectors to remove it from the processing line. The remaining peppers, now sorted and inspected, continue through the system, ensuring the highest quality output.

Comprehensive Solutions from Start to Finish:

Techik's inspection and sorting equipment, with product matrix of metal detector, checkweigher, X-Ray inspection system and color sorter, is designed to support every phase of the production process, from raw material handling to final packaging. Whether you're working with agricultural products, packaged foods, or industrial materials, our equipment ensures that only the finest quality products are delivered, free from contaminants and defects.
