Sorting Solutions for Pistachio Processors
Aflatoxin and empty nuts are the two great risks of pistachio exports — and machines see both. From empty/full kernel separation to shell fragments, secure your export lot.
We Know Your Industry
For processors along the Gaziantep–Şanlıurfa corridor, pistachios mean both pride and risk: one of our most valuable export products, and one of the most closely watched at EU border controls.

How We Solve It on Your Line
Our recommended flow for pistachios: X-ray on in-shell product to separate empty nuts from full ones and remove stones, then color sorting on kernels to control shell and aflatoxin-suspect nuts.
X-Ray Empty/Full and Stone Separation
Images the inside without cracking the shell: empty nuts, stones, and dense foreign material are separated in a single pass.
