Optical sorting machines
Smart Sorting with TechNature: Quality in Every Detail
The sorting machines standardly supplied by TechNature are 3.7 by 1.6 meters in size. Each machine is equipped with the latest digital cameras and image processing programs. You have access to 16 photos of each individual product. This individual imaging is made possible by TechNature's uniquely developed pre-process of the sorting machine, where singulation takes place on a V-belt and diabolo rollers, and the product is inspected via both top cameras and side cameras. You can sort through multiple exits based on images that map every detail.
Where other cameras only take photos from above, TechNature distinguishes itself by capturing images from both above and the side. This allows at least 90% of all defects to be removed during the process.
TechNature delivers customization by writing specific software for each agro-product. This software works based on AI and Deep-Learning techniques, allowing the machine to achieve a much higher selection level than standard sorting machines.

Solutions:

The advantages of our advanced optical sorting machines:
- the sorting machine delivers more capacity than other providers;
- the machine fits into most existing sorting and packaging lines;
- the machine can replace up to four people;
- the quality level and sorting precision of selected products is higher;
- savings on manpower and a higher quality level also lead to higher yields. This leads to a short payback period. (For some companies, in less than three years!);
- through the combination of Vision & Robotics, the number of rejected products will be greatly reduced;
- the mechanically well-thought-out machine design is user-friendly and easy to maintain.
With a state-of-the-art sorting machine from TechNature, you no longer have to deal with:
- labor-intensive sorting;
- waste of two to five percent in the form of good products that are removed despite their suitability;
- a machine that is not aligned with supporting computer systems;
- a machine that is user-unfriendly because settings are difficult to change.
Partnering with TechNature means:
Gaining your advantage with in-house expertise, as machine construction and addition of camera techniques and specific software are handled by a single company. TechNature has everything under its own management and is not dependent on outsourced specialisms. That works better and faster!
