Highest nut quality with optical inspection

Remove 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.

Robotics revolution in waste separation

In today’s world, recycling and efficient yet sustainable use of natural resources is becoming more and more important.

Traditional methods of waste separation are heavy, power consuming, and require crushing of waste which makes material identification and further processing difficult and expensive. Initial investment of a waste processing plant is very high and requires centralization. Processes are not easily adaptable to waste stream changes. ZenRobotics is the leading supplier of rob...

Revolutionizing polymer recycling

Case Prodecologia

Prodecologia developed a sorting machine based on Specim technology that achieves 98% polymer purity. Specim’s hyperspectral imaging was used to create Prodecologia’s near-infrared (NIR) separator, a tool that identifies, sorts, and separates different types of polymers — resulting in a more efficient and effective polymer recycling process.
