INLINE KEEN EYE

Reduction in labour is the main objective of an optical sorter and the InLine keen eye removes 90% of inspection staff.  Yield can also be increased by consistent fault detection or new markets can be opened up for individually size/weight graded products.

Defective material is removed cleanly and consistently, leaving the finished product to your customer’s specification without the subjective vaguaries of the human eye.

InLine keen eye identifies defects by colour, measures size in all three dimensions, calculates weight and assesses product shape.

Up to nine sorting results can be provided, which can be separate quality grades or a combinations of quality, size and shape.

InLine keen eye’s capacity can be up to 50 tonnes/hr, depending on the number of parallel sorting lanes and the product size or weight.

The InLine keen eye is very high-tech but the operator doesn’t need to be. They get simple, clear statistical and operational information from the large colour touch screen which also provides live images of the product and defects allowing quick and easy set up or adjustment.

Help with set-up, software updates and fault diagnosis are available free of charge via an encrypted internet connection.

The simple hygienic design with easy access, coupled with remote service, gives the user many years of fault free service and very low downtime.
