Industrial sorter SORTEX F PolarVision™

for the food industrycoloroptical

Overview
The SORTEX F Polarvision is an optical sorter engineered for frozen fruits and vegetables. It removes color defects, extraneous vegetable matter and foreign materials at throughputs up to 20 t/h (application dependent). The platform is built in stainless steel and is FDA‑approved for full wash-down to support food safety and hygienic processing.

Key benefits

• High-capacity sorting with a small footprint: available in three machine sizes with a maximum footprint area of approximately 9 m²; chutes can be reconfigured for re-sorting to increase yield.
• Comprehensive foreign-material detection: combines two proprietary detection technologies to identify light and dark plastics, wood, glass, snails and cardboard from 0.6 mm.
• Hygienic design to reduce contamination risk: stainless-steel construction, food-grade fixings and sloped surfaces; approved for complete wash-down.

Highlight features
Simplifying sorting
Machine-learning enabled controls store up to 100 user-defined sorting modes. Cameras and lighting are automatically calibrated during setup to minimise operator input and enable a click-to-start workflow.

Maximize profitability
384 individual ejectors with Ejector Plus technology remove heavier defects and foreign materials while minimising loss of good frozen product.

Reduced total cost of ownership
Extensive local service presence with fast response for emergency support, spares and service packages. Optional remote-access service (SORTEX TotalCare / Anyware) enables engineers to make real-time adjustments and optimisations.
