2015: The Next Step

Introduction of Real Imaging Near-Infared/InGaAs

Why?Some defects are exactly the same colouras good material: Sclerotia in Sunflower

Even higher reduction of aflatoxin in cereals

Removal of shell in almonds, etc

Visible image: Products & defects are black = NO Distinction!

Infrared image: Products & Defects are distinct = Easy to sort !

PETKUS Technologie GmbH

Technical Achievement

Lighting Using Narrow Band NIR LED’s….no halogen globes – no air conditioning!

US Military Grade InGaAs Cameras….real imaging – no oscilloscopes, no guesswork!

Common Viewing Point & Processing…no separate ejector timings for NIR system!

RGB + Geometric + NIR

Infrared image: Products & Defects are distinct = Easy to sort !

PETKUS Technologie GmbH

SmartLearn

Sorting – Made Easy!

1) Put some material throughthrough the OS900

2) Individual images are presented
