optical sorting

Optical sorting is a technology that uses cameras and sensors to identify and separate objects based on their appearance, such as color, size, or shape. As items pass through a machine, the system analyzes them in real-time and uses mechanical actions, like blasts of air or robotic arms, to sort and remove unwanted items. This process enhances efficiency and quality in industries like food processing, recycling, and manufacturing by ensuring only the desired products remain, reducing manual labor and increasing accuracy.
