The technological operations of preparing the wheat for grinding performed at the reception and storage in the silo, continue in the cleaning with the elimination of impurities and the conditioning of the wheat. For the study we used the SORTEX B DualVision Optical Sorter that recognizes many color defects and foreign materials and has a size detection software to eliminate nonconformities. The device features RGB cameras of high r front and rear resolution that can be configured to identify up to five color defects eliminating the need for repeated springing for each color defect. With the help of high-resolution cameras, you can scan an amount of 8 to / h from which are removed the elements that are not in the color range of the category of wheat from light brown - reddish brown - slightly dark brown. Numerous tests were performed in the laboratory, on different wheat mixtures, with different proportions of impurities / grains with defects and the efficiency was high. Wheat can be selected grain by grain, and the possibility of grinding non-compliant wheat clean atis very low.
