What is Optical Sorter?
An optical sorter is a machine that uses optical sensors and advanced imaging technology to sort various types of materials such as agricultural products, food items, minerals, pharmaceuticals, and waste materials.
Optical sorters can quickly and accurately detect and remove defective or unwanted items from a stream of products, based on specific characteristics such as color, shape, size, texture, or chemical composition. This makes them particularly useful in industries where high-speed sorting and quality control are critical, such as food processing, recycling, and mining.
Optical sorters can improve the efficiency and accuracy of the sorting process, leading to increased productivity and reduced waste. They can also help to ensure compliance with regulations, particularly in industries with strict requirements for product quality and safety.

Driving & Restraining Factors
Increasing Adoption of Sorter in the Food Processing Industry to Aid Market Growth
The food industry is expanding rapidly worldwide, driven by the growing global population and demand for packaged foods. The processed food industry is valued at around USD 2 trillion, with over 400,000 businesses worldwide, according to the Global Science Research Journals Organization.
As a result, advanced technology-based sorters are increasingly necessary to remove unwanted food items. In addition, the market is being driven by the rising wages of manual labor in various countries, as well as stricter regulations regarding packaged food products. Another major driver is the significant amount of food waste that occurs globally, from farmers to food processing manufacturers, leading them to adopt sorter machines to remove unwanted and spoiled food items from a group of food products. The U.N. Food Waste Index Report 2021 shows that globally, about 931 million tons of food are wasted annually, which is 17% of the total global food production.
Given this trend, various food processing manufacturers are adopting advanced technology sorter machines to avoid such food waste. Key players in end-user industries such as food and beverages, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals are also focusing more on automation, which will aid in the growth of the market.
High Costs Associated with Machine Manufacturing to Hinder Market Growth
The growth of the optical sorter market is hindered by the high cost of machine manufacturing. While sorter machines are widely used in the food and beverage industry to separate defective food products, the high cost of the machine and a lack of demand from small and medium-scale enterprises limit market growth. The cost of sorter machines starts from USD 10 million, which requires a significant investment for small and medium-sized enterprises. Therefore, the high prices associated with sorter machines in the respective industries, such as food, mining, and recycling, hinder market growth.

What is optical sorting in food industry?
Optical sorting is a technology used in the food industry to inspect and sort food products based on their colour, size, shape, and composition. Optical sorters use sensors and cameras to detect and identify any defects or foreign materials present in the food products, such as rocks, plastics, or other contaminants, and then remove them from the production line.
The technology is used in various food processing stages, including raw material inspection, pre-sorting, and final sorting, to ensure that the final product meets the required quality and safety standards. Optical sorting in the food industry helps to improve the efficiency of the production line, reduce food waste, and improve the quality of the final product, ultimately resulting in a higher yield and profitability for food manufacturers.
