Optical color sorters from TDI Packsys utilize world-class componentry and engineering to achieve best in class optical sorting performance. TDI Color Sorters can inspect for and automatically remove a variety of contaminants from bulk product, including glass, plastic, wood, shells and stones. In addition to foreign materials, optical color sorters from TDI Packsys will remove discolored, diseased or misshaped products. Accurate and efficient defect removal is accomplished using up to 384 individual, high-precision air jets. Ideal for sorting most harvested products, including peanuts, nuts, grains, seeds, fruits, dehydrated vegetables, corn and much more.

Applications

Ideal for sorting most harvested products, including peanuts, nuts, grains, seeds, fruits, dehydrated vegetables, corn and much more.

Color Sorters from TDI Packsys can inspect for and remove both foreign materials, and defective products.

FAQs

Optical color sorters offer a new perspective in food inspection with the use of optical tech rather than conductivity (metal detectors) or density (x-ray). 

Optical color sorters work by passing the product down a chute and into a small freefall. In this freefall, LEDs are used to illuminate the product, and a series of cameras capture the product image as it falls. 

Color sorter technology allows the user to select which colors are ‘good’ product, and everything else is read as a contaminant and rejected. 

This technology allows low density, non-conductive contaminants to be located inside of bulk product.

Optical color sorters from TDI Packsys can be used to inspect the majority of harvested products, as well as any products that are processed in bulk. Beans, nuts, fruits, vegetables and spices are all easily inspected for foreign materials and defects using optical color sorting.
