Specially Designed Transport System
Seeds smaller than 1 mm are transported from the feeder along a
stainless steel chute down to a specially designed conveyor belt
system to be scanned at the end and ejected nearly immediately behind
the inspection line. Of course, the seeds are also allowed to be bigger
than 1 mm. Because of the special feeding system, the seeds can be
round and tumbling or flaky or arbitrarily shaped. This makes the sorting
system applicable to an enormous range of products.
High Resolution Separation
The high-speed valves eject bad objects precisely with a very small
nozzle interval to achieve utmost separation of good and bad particles.
This new ejection system yields highest sorting quality for small objects
while reducing the loss of good product.

Optics at a New Level

The ROEBER transport system optimally presents the product to the
inspection unit where it is scanned by a high resolution and innovative
light and optics combination. With this new technology we are able to
inspect small objects like vegetable seeds or at the same time large
objects like wheat – both with excellent full color image quality.
The high contrast allows to distinguish tiny differences which is the
basis for high quality sorting. Details of the small seeds are easy to
see and can well be evaluated on the large 19” touchscreen. Clean Easily
For fine seeds it is normal to have small batches and a great variety of
products. Thus, we also focused during the design to clean the OS
f-class easily and quickly.
