Satake Ultrascan
The Ultimate solution in high capacity, high efficiency, foreign
material sorting.
24,000 lbs/hour
The optical color sorter line offered by Satake is well proven in
the tree nut industry. The equipment is currently sorting pecans,
walnuts, hazelnuts, pistachios, pine nuts, cashew nuts, macadamia
pieces and whole nuts, and raw, in-shell and blanched almonds throughout
the industry increasing the value of these products by removing
such contaminants as: shell, rocks, sticks, discolored product and
foreign material. In almonds, typical defects include hull, shell
(pee wees) and husks (ScanMaster DE). The ultraviolet based ScanMaster
SE model will remove insect damage, chipped and scratched.
Best laser Sorting
The laser sorter provides you with the best solution for increasing
the quality of your product.
It has proved to be far superior to other sorting methods: with
a speed and precision that nobody else can offer, invisible foreign
bodies, such as glass, or defects with exactly the same color as
the good product are detected.
The laser sorters are used for applications that require both color
and structure sorting like raisins, shrimps, vegetables, fruit,
tobacco and nuts. Laser scanning detects contaminants even when
the products and the defects have the same color. The patented scattering
and "fluo" principles give the operator high discriminating
power. Ultra fast air ejectors are used to remove defects from the
product flow. The use of different types of lasers provides unmatched
flexibility in sorting different types of products. BEST's FLUO
technology provides a very high sorting efficiency, combined with
an extremely low level of false reject.
Our laser machines sort based on color, structure, size and shape
differences. On top of these "traditional sorting techniques",
our machine is now able to sort based on biological characteristics.
Those biological features are invisible with the human eye but sometimes
dangerous for the health, such as aflatoxin in nuts and figs. Thanks
to the FLUO technique, it is also possible to screen chlorophyll
containing products like lettuce, spinach, peas or other green vegetables
for foreign material contamination with minimal loss of good product.
