With up to twelve individual laser signals, the Helius™ and Helius™ P detect colour, structure, size and shape defects from a stream of good product. Powerful air guns remove defects accurately from the good product. The sorting machines are also able to sort based on biological characteristics, invisible to the human eye. Combined with the patented Fluo™ technology, the Helius™ and Helius™ P sorting machines detect the slightest shades of chlorophyll to create an even better contrast between good products and defects.
Other technologies available are SWIR, Detox™ (for aflatoxin) and AFMD. After the inspection of your product, the unwanted material is ejected via a front or a rear ejection system (RES™). The manifold position before or behind the particular product provides high rejection accuracy, efficiency and consistent sorting. The Helius™ sorting machine can also be equipped with a 3-way sorting system for greater flexibility, even lower false reject and improved yield.
