Chia Seed Color Sorter

The OURSORT AM30 Chia Seed Color Sorter is a compact sorting machine designed for the fine sorting of chia seeds and other small seeds.

With a processing capacity of approximately 100 kg/h, the AM30 is suitable for small-batch production, seed processors, specialty food manufacturers, and businesses that require precise quality control without investing in a large industrial sorting line.

The machine uses optical detection and intelligent sorting technology to identify visible differences in color and appearance. It can help remove discolored seeds, immature seeds, small impurities, and other unwanted materials from the qualified chia seed flow.

Key Features

Model: AM30

Application: Chia seed and small seed sorting

Capacity: Approx. 100 kg/h

Sorting Accuracy: ≥99%

Carryover Ratio: 15:1

Minimum Resolution: 0.01

Power: 0.4 kW

Dimensions: 55 × 70 × 85 cm

Power Supply: AC 220V / 50Hz

Its compact structure makes the AM30 convenient for installation where production space is limited.

During operation, chia seeds are fed into the machine through the hopper and distributed evenly into the sorting channel.

The optical detection system continuously observes the passing seeds and identifies differences in color and appearance. When an unwanted seed or impurity is detected, the corresponding air-jet system removes it from the qualified product stream.

Working Process

Feeding → Even Distribution → Optical Detection → Intelligent Analysis → Air-Jet Ejection → Qualified Chia Seeds

Operators can adjust sorting parameters according to the raw material condition and required sorting standard.

For example, the machine can be configured to focus on removing dark seeds, discolored seeds, immature seeds, small stones, stems, dust, and other visually distinguishable impurities.

For new applications, OURSORT recommends conducting a material test before finalizing the sorting configuration.

The AM30 is especially suitable for businesses that process chia seeds in relatively small or medium batches.

Typical applications include:

Chia seed processing

Seed cleaning and quality control

Superfood and health-food production

Organic food processing

Seed packaging facilities

Agricultural product processing

Specialty seed processors

Small-batch food production

Research and sample-processing applications

The compact design is particularly useful for processors who need a dedicated sorting solution but have limited production space.

In addition to chia seeds, the AM30 can be evaluated for other small seeds and granular materials with similar physical characteristics.

The AM30 helps separate qualified chia seeds from unwanted materials according to visible color and appearance differences.

Qualified Chia Seeds

Normally colored and visually acceptable chia seeds remain in the finished product stream.

Discolored Seeds

Seeds with obvious color differences can be detected and separated according to the customer's sorting requirements.

Immature or Defective Seeds

Seeds with visible appearance differences can be removed to improve the overall consistency of the finished product.

Foreign Materials

Visually distinguishable impurities such as small stones, stems, dust, and other unwanted particles can also be targeted when their characteristics are suitable for optical sorting.

The actual sorting effect depends on the color, size, shape, moisture, surface condition, and impurity characteristics of the raw material. Sample testing is recommended to determine the final sorting performance.

The OURSORT AM30 Chia Seed Color Sorter provides a compact and practical solution for precise chia seed quality sorting.

With approximately100 kg/h capacity, ≥99% sorting accuracy, 15:1 carryover ratio, and a compact footprint, it is designed for processors who need reliable sorting performance for small-batch or specialty seed production.

By automating the sorting process, the AM30 can help reduce repetitive manual inspection, improve product consistency, and create a more standardized quality-control process.

For chia seed processors looking to improve the cleanliness and appearance of their finished products, the AM30 offers a flexible starting point for automated optical sorting.
