Foreign matter sorter

Foreign matter sorter

Application:

It is kind of complex system integrated with various technologies such as machine visual technology, computer technology, real-time control technology, artificial intelligence technology and advanced mechanic structure technology. It is mainly used for removing various foreign matters mixed in tobaccos such as jute strings, plastic film, metals, plastics, feathers, leather strips, papers, molded tobacco leaves, etc., and efficiently improve the quality of cigarette.

Features:

√ Air pressure stabilizing system ensures tobaccos stably dwell on the high speed belt conveyor.

√ Embedded with FPGA+DSP image processing system

√ Air cleaning system makes observation window crystal clear.

√ Optical components and cameras are airtight from the external dust.

√ Patented self-luminous background works with stable and bright LED.

√ CCD linear array camera with first-class prism beam splitter and professional optical lens to ensure vivid and natural imaging.

√ Unique one key intelligent formula leaning function.

√ Simple and friendly HMI make operation easy and convenient.

√ Precisely rejecting with error rate less than 0.5%.

√ Gently process with less degradation to tobacco.

√ Food grade stainless steel made inner chamber.
