Transforming Poultry Processing: Techik Color Sorters for Comprehensive Chicken Feet Grading and Sorting

In the highly competitive poultry industry, achieving consistent quality and efficiency in processing is crucial. Techik, a leader in advanced inspection technology, introduces its state-of-the-art color sorters designed specifically for chicken feet. These innovative machines not only grade chicken feet with exceptional precision but also offer customizable sorting solutions to meet diverse customer needs.

Precision Grading with Techik Color Sorters
Techik color sorters excel in grading chicken feet into three distinct categories based on stringent quality criteria:

Grade A: Perfect condition with no damage or black/red spots.
Grade B: Minor damage to the pad (black/red spots) not exceeding 1.5 cm.
Non-Grade: Chicken feet that do not meet the criteria for Grade A or Grade B.
This precise grading ensures that only the highest quality chicken feet reach the market, enhancing customer satisfaction and brand reputation.

Customizable Sorting Solutions
Understanding that each customer has unique requirements, Techik color sorters are equipped with advanced technologies to offer tailored sorting solutions:

Multi-Spectrum Technology: Allows for detailed analysis of the chicken feet, ensuring accurate sorting based on color variations and subtle defects.
Multi-Energy Technology: Enhances the detection of internal defects and foreign matter, providing a comprehensive inspection beyond surface appearance.
Multi-Sensor Technology: Integrates various sensors to detect and remove impurities and defects, ensuring high-quality output.

Benefits of Techik Color Sorters
Enhanced Efficiency and Labor Reduction:
By automating the sorting process, Techik color sorters significantly reduce the need for manual labor. This leads to faster processing times, lower operational costs, and improved overall efficiency.

Comprehensive Sorting Capabilities:
Techik color sorters are versatile, capable of handling both raw material sorting and processed material sorting. This includes grading for surface/internal defects, foreign matter removal, and quality sorting for processing stages such as burnt or fried chicken feet.

Consistent Quality Assurance:
The use of advanced technologies ensures consistent and reliable grading, maintaining uniform quality across all batches of chicken feet. This consistency is key to building customer trust and loyalty.

Whole Chain Inspection and Sorting:
Techik provides a complete solution for the entire processing chain, from initial inspection of raw materials to the final sorting of processed products. This comprehensive approach ensures that all aspects of quality and safety are addressed.

How Techik Color Sorters Work
Intake and Distribution:
Chicken feet are fed into the machine through a hopper and evenly distributed onto a vibrating conveyor belt.

High-Resolution Imaging:
The conveyor transports the chicken feet under high-resolution cameras that capture detailed images, which are then analyzed in real-time.

Advanced Analysis:
Utilizing Multi-Spectrum, Multi-Energy, and Multi-Sensor technologies, the software evaluates each chicken foot against predefined criteria for Grade A, Grade B, and non-grade, as well as specific customer requirements.

Automated Sorting:
Based on the analysis, precise air jets or mechanical ejectors direct the chicken feet into designated bins according to their grade and sorting specifications.

Real-World Impact
Techik color sorters have been successfully integrated into poultry processing lines worldwide, delivering significant improvements in efficiency and product quality. For instance, a major poultry processor reported a 40% increase in sorting efficiency and a significant reduction in product recalls after implementing Techik color sorters. Their customers have consistently praised the improved quality and consistency of the chicken feet, leading to higher satisfaction and repeat business.

Conclusion
Techik color sorters represent the pinnacle of innovation in poultry processing, offering precision, efficiency, and customizable solutions to meet the diverse needs of the industry. By ensuring high-quality grading and comprehensive sorting, Techik color sorters help processors achieve superior product standards and operational excellence.
