UNX Series – X-ray sorters equipped with AI

UNX sorters use X-ray technology and AI models to detect contaminants and hidden defects in raw materials, invisible in standard optical sorting.

X-ray sorting

Material analysis in multiple dimensions – density and structure.

Elimination of contaminants

Separation of metals, glass, ceramics, rubber, and stones.

Detection of internal defects

Removes empty, moldy, or damaged nuts and grains.

AI machine learning

Precisely classifies materials according to density and structure.

Safety and certificates

Legal, safe system compliant with PAA regulations.

High resolution

Detectors and 120 kV lamp reveal even microscopic defects.

Detailed model description

The UNX 1830-D X-ray sorter is an advanced X-ray inspection system designed for the food industry, detecting foreign bodies inside sealed packaging. The device effectively identifies contaminants such as metal, glass, stone, and ceramics, regardless of packaging or product type. The system is designed for easy integration into bottling and packaging lines and for continuous operation in industrial environments. The UNX1830D operates at high production line efficiency, supports HACCP, IFS, and BRC standards, and ensures automatic rejection of non-conforming products.

The use of machine-learning models allows for the removal of products with different densities or structures. This enhances standard optical sorting methods with the additional dimension of X-ray analysis.

Ensure safety

The systems we supply are fully safe. There are no restrictions on working with them by operators. Along with the machines, we offer full safety training and operation of X-ray systems for all our clients. Our devices have full documentation, are reported to supervisory authorities, and our company has permits for their installation and servicing issued by the National Atomic Energy Agency. It is a fully legal and safe solution.

The high bias voltage of the X-ray tube of up to 120kV and the high resolution of the linear detector allow seeing the smallest material defects and effective sorting. The modular construction of the device also limits the costs associated with its operation over the years.

Training by Smartsort Company

Optimization of a sorting proces is never a one-time operation, concluded with purchase installation and commissioning of devices, but rather it is a continuous process requiring proper handling of equipment, responding to periodic changes in production conditions and market conditions, and ultimately it is also dependent on the appropriate level of personnel training.

Furthermore, modernization of an existing part of the production line or installation of a new one, with parameters closer to the optimum brings with it the possibility of change to some parameters in another section of production.

Good to know – important information

Bulk materials for which we implement our sorting systems are subject to change across individual batches delivered to the plant, either year by year, or due to sourcing from different suppliers. Assumed sorting goals may also change when there is a demand, for example, for a higher- or lower-class product. In each of these cases, a single optimization criterion remains constant: as much material as possible is to be recovered and brought to a saleable condition. Therefore, we offer audit or training services tailored to the needs of each client.

Audit plan

A service engineer optimizes sorting programs for current conditions and those predicted in the production plan for the near future. This is an alternative to training plant employees to higher levels of advancement in equipment operation, limiting their duties to selecting appropriate sorting programs.

This is an excellent solution for industries where it is difficult to find suitable operators, or production employees often change positions.

Training plan

Having qualified staff to operate specialized equipment is an invaluable asset for any production plant where many different types of bulk products are sorted, they come from various sources, or production goals are subject to change.

In such cases, an employee or employees with a permanent position are usually delegated to operate the devices, for whom we can conduct training both at the employee’s plant and at our facility.

Mixed plan

Depending on individual abilities and available time, full training of independent operators handling an optical sorter can take a significant amount of time. During this period, the line’s output parameters cannot be lowered. In such situations, we suggest combining training with conducting audits at the plant.

Moreover, even proficient operators will perform better at optimizing the line’s operation during an audit, under the supervision of an experienced SmartSort engineer, even if those were to take place at a greater time interval.
