Enhancing Chili Quality and Efficiency with Techik Intelligent Sorting Solutions


In the chili industry, maintaining product quality and ensuring the absence of foreign contaminants is paramount. Any anomalies, such as foreign materials and impurities, can significantly diminish the overall quality and market value of chili products. To address these challenges, the practice of grading and sorting pre-processed chilies has become a widely accepted industry standard.

Techik, a comprehensive, end-to-end sorting and inspection solution designed specifically for the chili industry. This all-in-one system caters to a wide range of chili varieties, including dried chilies, chili flakes, and packaged chili products, empowering businesses to achieve premium quality, higher profitability, and improved overall revenue.

 

Dried chilies, known for their easy storage and subsequent processing, represent a common initial stage of chili processing. These chilies can be further categorized into various quality grades and prices based on factors such as the presence of stems, color, shape, impurity levels, mold damage, and anomalous coloration. Therefore, there is a growing demand for efficient sorting solutions.

 

Techik offers a single-pass sorting solution, effectively detecting and removing chili stems, caps, straw, branches, as well as foreign materials such as metal, glass, stones, insects, and cigarette butts. Furthermore, it effectively segregates and removes defective chilies with issues like mold, discoloration, bruising, insect damage, and breakage, ensuring the production of stemless dried chilies with consistent quality.

 

For more complex sorting requirements, the solution also provides a multiple-pass sorting process for chilies with stems. It effectively identifies and eliminates foreign materials and deviant coloration or shapes, yielding premium chilies with stems intact.

 

The “Techik” system is a culmination of cutting-edge technology, featuring a dual-layer belt-type optical sorting machine and an integrated X-ray vision system. The optical sorting machine intelligently recognizes chili stems, caps, straw, branches, and unwanted impurities, along with issues like mold, discoloration, light red coloring, and dark spots, ensuring only high-quality, stemless dried chilies are processed. Additionally, the X-ray vision system can identify metal and glass particles as well as abnormalities within the chilies, ensuring the utmost product purity and safety.
