A single discoloured grain can spoil an entire batch of premium rice or cereal, and no mechanical separator can remove it reliably. The Grain Color Sorter uses a high speed CCD camera to inspect every kernel as it falls through the sorting chamber, and a precisely timed air jet removes the defective grains from the good stream.

The machine feeds grain evenly into a sloped chute where each kernel is presented in a single layer to the optical system. Multiple cameras and background boards, combined with LED illumination, detect yellow, chalky, black and foreign particles in real time, while a fast FPGA controller fires the ejectors within a fraction of a millisecond.

A touch screen interface lets the operator choose from preset sorting modes for rice, wheat, corn, peanut, sesame and many other grains, then fine tune sensitivity and throughput. Because the sorting is non contact and fully automatic, it runs continuously with minimal labour and consistently raises the grade of the finished product.

• High Resolution CCD: Multiple high speed cameras read each kernel from more than one angle, catching defects that a single sensor would miss.
• Fast Air Ejectors: The FPGA controller and precision solenoid valves fire the air jets in under a millisecond for accurate defect removal with low loss of good grain.
• Easy Touch Control: A colour touch screen offers preset modes and simple sliders, so operators can change product and sensitivity without specialist training.
• Multiple Grain Modes: The same machine sorts rice, wheat, corn, soybean, peanut, sesame and seeds by simply switching the recipe on the screen.
• Self Cleaning Optics: Patented dust extraction and an air curtain keep lenses and background boards clean, maintaining accuracy through long production shifts.
• Low Grain Loss: Careful feed control and a short sorting distance ensure a high acceptance ratio of good grain while defects are efficiently rejected.

The Grain Color Sorter is used in rice mills, flour mills, seed processing plants and food factories to upgrade rice, wheat, corn, barley, soybean, coffee bean, peanut and sesame. It removes discoloured, chalky, spotted and foreign particles, raising the grade of both domestic and export shipments.

The sorter is shipped in a reinforced plywood case with the optical chamber, chute and ejector manifold protected by shock absorbing foam. Air and power connections are capped and the screen is wrapped separately. A full set of air preparation components, an operation manual and commissioning support are supplied, and the machine carries a twelve month warranty against manufacturing defects.
