Optical Sorting Machine for Zero-Defects Inspection
High-speed, automated inspection systems for fasteners, automotive, and precision parts
Our Optical Sorting Machine is a next-generation vision inspection solution designed to detect and reject defective components with micron-level precision. Equipped with high-resolution cameras, advanced sensors, and intelligent vision software, it ensures zero-defect quality inspection for industries such as automotive, aerospace, electronics, and fasteners.
What is an Optical Sorting Machine and Why Should You Choose One?
An Optical Sorting Machine is an advanced automated inspection system that uses high-resolution cameras, sensors, and machine vision software to identify and separate good parts from defective ones. It evaluates items based on color, shape, size, surface defects, and dimensional accuracy with micron-level precision.
Manufacturers choose optical sorting because it ensures Zero-Defects Inspection, reduces costly recalls, and customer complaints. By automating the inspection process, it eliminates human error, increases throughput, and delivers a faster return on investment (ROI) compared to manual inspection methods.
How Does an Optical Sorting Machine Work?
High-resolution cameras are the “digital eyes” of an Optical Sorting Machine. As each part passes through the system, the imaging modules capture every tiny detail in real time. The vision software then compares each part against predefined parameters such as:
Size and dimensional accuracy
Shape and geometry
Surface defects like scratches, cracks, dents, or cut marks
Color variations and texture mismatches
If a part fails any test, it is automatically rejected within milliseconds, ensuring only defect-free components reach your customer.
Key Benefits of using an Optical Sorting Machine ?
Boost Efficiency – Inspect up to 300 parts per minute (PPM) without compromising quality.
Catch Every Defect– From visible cracks to micron-level deviations.
Reduce Costs– Lower costly recalls/ rework, and labor expenses.
Improve Traceability -Get inspection reports for audits and compliance.
Quick ROI – Many businesses recover the investment within 12–18 months.
Is an Optical Sorting Machine Suitable for High-Speed Production?
Yes. Modern Optical Sorting Machines are designed for high-speed inspection environments. These machines can inspect multiple parameters in a fraction of a second without compromising quality, making them ideal for industries such as automotive, electronics, defense, rubber, and precision engineering.
