Buhler has developed the SORTEX S UltraVision intelligent optical sorter for rice. The sorter is available with up to six chutes and the inspection system detects subtle rice discolouration and defects, including varying degrees of purples, greys, yellows, streaks and specks.
The multichromatic cameras accentuate the difference between grain colours, while the textured LED lighting enables improved detection, and the ‘Crosshair Targeting’ technology targets and ejects defects accurately.
The intelligent automation system maintains consistent performance and removes the need for manual set-up. Rice varieties are pre-installed and the auto-calibration system optimises lighting and cameras. The soft landing feature almost eliminates product breakages.
The operating software produces export-quality sorting in three steps and defect control enables rejection of individual defects. The system has remote access capability providing real-time technical support and can produce performance reports on ejection rates, performance data, defect analysis, statistics and traceability.
