Coffee Sorting.

Setting the standards in product quality and safety

• The Bühler optical sorting solutions deliver high efficiency in the removal of subtle colour and defective coffee beans, including broca (insect damaged), discoloured, immature, under/over roasted beans, to achieve optimum roast and ground quality.
• Excellent results can be achieved in removing even the most challenging defects such as stones, metal, sticks, glass and other foreign material, to maximize safety.

Maximising value and yield

• Precise optical sorting achieves uniform appearance and added value.
• A range of advanced custom-built technologies ensure the selection of the highest quality of coffee beans. These include
  • LED and broad spectrum lighting
  • High resolution visible mono, bichromatic cameras and trichromatic sensors

InGaAs (SWIR) and PROfile technology

• Industry-leading optical and ejector technology minimizes the false ejection of the good beans.
• Simultaneous resort option allows the recovery of good product from the reject stream.

Consistent performance and stability

• Consistent performance and a reliable operation with automatic calibration whilst maintaining a clean optical viewing area.
• Maximum stability with the Climate Control System option, by maintaining a constant temperature in the optical and control cabinets in the extreme ambient temperature ranges.

Multiple, configurable machine options

• Modular design options available up to four sizes to suit processors with capacity requirements ranging from 0.5-15 tons/hour.
• The Graphical User Interface (GUI) enables fast product changeovers and covers a wide range of pre-stored product modes.

Increased productivity and lower operational costs

• Assisted by the Anyware remote connection, Bühler engineers can respond quickly in support of SORTEX sorters maximizing uptime, further enhancing productivity.
• Lower power consumption and air requirements reduce operational costs.
