Tanis Sorton Nova: Precise Quality Control with Advanced Optical Sorting Technology
The Meeting Point of High Speed and Precision
Optical sorting technologies have become a critical stage in seed processing and quality control. The Tanis Sorton Nova is a high-capacity optical sorting system equipped with high-resolution cameras, advanced image processing software, and fast ejection technology.
Designed for businesses targeting high efficiency, precision, and continuous quality, it provides powerful visual analysis for agricultural and industrial processing lines.
Working Principle
Products are fed in single rows using a vibratory feeding system. Double-sided high-resolution RGB and optional NIR cameras scan each grain for color, shape, surface defects, foreign matter, and other quality parameters.
Products that do not meet the specified criteria are removed by high-speed microvalve ejectors with air blasts. Only products that meet quality standards remain on the line. This process occurs thousands of times per second for stable results.
Application Areas
The Tanis Sorton Nova performs well with a wide range of products:
-
Quality classification of hybrid and high-value seeds
-
Color and shape separation in chickpeas, beans, lentils, corn, sunflower, barley, wheat
-
Detection of black spots, fungal traces, broken, cracked, or rotten grains
-
Separation of foreign seeds, stones, hulls, and weed seeds
-
Product classification according to quality in industrial lines
