The production of peanuts is characterized by a complex and heterogeneous product flow. Processors and packagers are inconvenienced by a myriad of foreign bodies and defective or contaminated products, which lower product quality, value and further disrupt production when used as an ingredient.

Every peanut has its own characteristics but the main stages of sorting are “ raw ” (after cracking) and “blanched ” (after roosting). Both stages offer a different sorting challenge whereby the complexity for raw product is the highest, as it has many contaminants within the color spectrum of the good peanut.

Because of this complexity, traditional color sorters are insufficient or not capable to detect foreign bodies (wood, shells, stones). But also older analogue laser sorters cannot cope adequately and deliver high levels of false reject (shooting out your expensive good peanuts).

Sorting on structure, shape and color combined, by means of digital laser technology is THE solution to this problem. THE SPYDER and THE LYNX digital laser sorters add 2 advanced proprietary innovations especially for treenuts, the Chycane-slide infeed-chute and the Limglyde (low impact glide) guaranteeing a perfect sort with an extremely low level of false reject (spoilage) and nut breakage.

Visys offers you state-of-the-art solutions allowing uncompromised color, (bio)structure and shape sorting in one single product pass, so that your product does not get damaged by over-manipulation.

Visys understands what drives the peanut industry; hence our solutions are designed with simplicity and low maintenance in mind. We keep your laser sorter affordable and offer so an even faster return on your investment.
