Description

Industrial food processors face strict food safety audits. Shell contamination and septum in kernel batches trigger audit failures. The MHT02-0812C high-capacity walnut sorting machine removes shell, septum, and shriveled kernels automatically at 560–720 kg/h. Eight cameras and AI classification detect contaminants reliably. Your production line meets food safety compliance standards at factory scale.

Overview

Food safety compliance in industrial walnut processing requires consistent, documented contaminant removal. Manual checking at factory throughput rates is neither reliable nor sufficient for auditor requirements. The MHT02-0812C automates contaminant removal at the production line speed. Its 8-camera system identifies walnut shell fragments, partition material, and shriveled kernels alongside all 15 product grade categories. Each contaminant type routes to its dedicated outlet. Clean product streams reach packaging free of foreign material. The real-time grading log documents contaminant volumes per batch. Auditors see a quantified contamination removal record for every production run. The Teflon conveyor and automatic cleaning system support the hygiene requirements of certified food processing environments. For industrial processors supplying retail food chains, food manufacturers, or export markets subject to FSSC, BRC, or similar standards, the MHT02-0812C's automated and traceable contaminant removal is a production compliance asset.

Key Advantages

• Automated Contaminant Removal — Shell fragments, septum, and shriveled kernels route to dedicated outlets automatically. No manual picking required.
• Traceable Contamination Records — Grading log documents contaminant volumes per batch. Auditors receive quantified removal evidence.
• Food-Safe Conveyor and Cleaning — Teflon belt and automatic cleaning system meet industrial food processing hygiene requirements.
• High-Volume Compliance at Factory Speed — Contaminant removal operates at 560–720 kg/h. Food safety standards hold at full production line rate.

Technical Features

• 8 HD cameras — detect shell fragments, partition material, and shriveled kernels alongside grade categories
• 12 adaptive outlets — dedicated routing for shell, septum, shriveled kernels, and all 15 product grades
• Real-time grading log — batch-level contaminant removal documentation for food safety audits
• Teflon conveyor belt — food-safe, non-reactive surface meeting industrial food processing hygiene standards
• Automatic real-time cleaning system — maintains food safety hygiene requirements during continuous production
• Deep learning AI — reliable contaminant detection at full factory throughput without human inspection dependency
