Sorting Solutions for Nut Processors
For hazelnut kernels headed to the chocolate industry, the tolerance for shell fragments is zero. In hazelnuts, almonds, and walnuts, remove shell, stones, and moldy kernels from the line with color sorting + X-ray.
We Know Your Industry
Turkey supplies roughly two-thirds of world hazelnut production — and sells to the world's most exacting buyers. Your compliance with chocolate and confectionery specifications is only as good as your sorting line.

How We Solve It on Your Line
