MTS - Model S1000 -Optical Sorter
Optical sorters of “S1000” series are manufactured on carbon frames, and they are one-of-a-kind.
The use of this innovative material is determined by significant needs:
- To reduce dimensions, thus allowing for applications that otherwise would be very difficult or impossible.
- To lower weights that allow the sorter to be handled very easily.
- A very high resistance to almost all corrosive agents, thus rendering the sorter structure almost indestructible.
- High resistance to impacts.
All optical sorters are equipped with the innovative scanning viewing system of color and material. This instrument – fruit of in-depth research studies – assures a very accurate sorting to the user.
Fruits are distributed onto the machine feeding belt to be then scanned by the video cameras placed so as to cover the whole belt width. In fractions of one thousand of a second the material is viewed by the system and declared to be “suitable” or “unsuitable”. Should the latter be the case, it is rejected by the smart ejectors positioned on the lower pneumatic unit which hit the polluting material with a millimetric precision by ejecting it. All the suitable material is saved and goes on toward the following stations.
MTS optical sorters read both the color and the organic mass of produce, so that only the produce declared to be suitable by the user are detected. In this way a pollutant-free high-quality sorting is assured.
All sorters feature the following:
Ethernet connection for remote access and control – Direct connection with PLC – Operation through 24V or 12V power supply; the equipment automatically sets on the received voltage – Very low electrical absorption (for a 50-channel machine the absorption equals 0.2 A) – Degree of protection of the electronic unit IP67.
