SmartSort SQ X64 Optical Sorter
The multi-function SQ X64 optical sorter is the most flexible device on the market, providing reliable sorting quality of many different assortments on any scale, and with the ability to control performance and quality on demand.
Unprecedented sorting precision
The SQ X64 optical sorter is based on the operation of video systems based on Cloud colour cameras with a resolution of 5400 pixels and operating in a full spectrum of visible colours, which allow the detection of even the smallest colour defects. The high-performance and accurate ejection mechanism for material deemed defective is constructed on a matrix of 64 nozzles on each channel cooperating with ultra-efficient solenoid valves, providing the highest class of material cleaning while minimizing the loss of good material.
All this is coupled with the proprietary integrated circuit system designed specifically for the EagleEye intelligent software, enabling efficient transmission of signals and computer analysis with up to 7 different defects at the same time. The SQ X64 optical sorter not only detects differences in colour, but also in shape and size.
Wide range of applications
Using Cloud cameras that work across the entire spectrum of visible wavelengths allows one to remove impurities that are not only different in colour, but even in a different shade – those not detectable by the human eye even when the two elements are compared side-by-side. In contrast, the high resolution of the cameras detects these colour defects even if they are in the form of fine discoloration or dirt, and can cope perfectly with an assortment of small grain size.
Thanks to this, the SQ X64 optical sorter is applicable not only to all agricultural products from the mustard grain size, through all types of cereals, to large beans, but also to industrial production and recycling. It is successfully used for the sorting of cable, plastics, regranulates, fine-grained scrap of non-ferrous metals and the PET petal. With the device memory, one can upload all the components of the EagleEye software and perform each of these functions and even more with one device.
Any-and all production volume
The SQ X64 devices are available in any configuration from 1 to 10 channels, making the latest developments in sorting technologies meet the needs of the largest production plants, and allow to maintain competitiveness of small entrepreneurs. The configuration flexibility translates into elasticity and complexity of the projects, whether through multiple sorting and resorting systems, or the separation of multiple fractions from a single output assortment, or parallel sorting of several different products.
Remote quality control
All SmartSort devices including SQ X64 have the ability to connect to the network, allowing remote monitoring and control of sorting processes with the help of a computer or from a phone screen, realizing the demands of Industry 4.0. The user-friendly, intuitive desktop and remote software interface allows you to control performance and process quality parameters from anywhere in the world.
Limitless possibilities
Thanks to the fact that all components of SmartSort devices are manufactured and designed specifically for optical sorting, the SQ series, regardless of the size of the production they work on, can be easily equipped with InGaAs cameras. A modern system of integrated circuits that processes and transmit camera signals to a computer is prepared for this hardware and software update, which adds the ability to detect another kind of defect to an already wide range.
