Key Technology Python laser sorter

Wednesday, 16 April, 2014 | Supplied by: Key Technology Australia Pty Ltd


The Python laser sorter from Key Technology removes foreign material (FM), extraneous vegetative matter (EVM) and defects based on size, shape, colour and structure.

Python combines laser sorter features with complex shape recognition via its transparent, backlit chute. According to the company, this design allows for crisp analysis of complex contours as well as any combination of length, width, ration and area.

The backlit chute is based on Key’s proprietary Chycane chute, which feeds product in a monolayer with a consistent trajectory to the laser optics and ejection valves. This reportedly maximises sorting and ejection efficiency.

The chute-fed sorter offers a small footprint, low maintenance with no moving parts, a sanitary design and an easy-to-use graphical user interface (GUI). It is constructed of full IP65-rated stainless steel.

It is suitable for fresh, dried and frozen fruits as well as nuts and confections.
