Abstract (en)
[origin: DE4127903A1] The sorter has a conveyor belt feed (1) with the produce being discharged past a measuring chamber (2). The chamber has a glass cylinder that is illuminated from above and below by two lighting units. The ends of the cylinder have a number of photoelectric detectors that respond to the passage of the produce. The lighting units provide emissions with different wavelengths and the detector outputs are interpreted by an electronic unit (10) to control a separator (9) to deflect the product into different sections (12). ADVANTAGE - Highly reliable measurements.
