Highest nut quality with optical inspection

Find and remove all foreign material and low-grade products during the process.

Nut processors work hard to find ways to improve as high-quality products as possible and that way increase the products’ value. This means finding and removing all foreign material (including shells) and low-grade products during the process.

Specim’s hyperspectral cameras help to ensure the highest quality in any type of nuts: almonds, cashew, walnuts, pistachio, peanuts, and so on. It allows collecting the data at industrial speed from hundreds of wavelengths, reaching a 100% inspection rate instead of just one point. The data can be used to detect, for example, discoloration or mold and identify and remove foreign objects like shell pieces, wood or stones, insects.
