Optyx 6000 Raptor Sorter and Optyx 6000 FluoRaptor Sorter

Optyx® 6000-series sorters with Raptor Laser Technology — and NEW FluoRaptor™ Fluorescence-Sensing Laser Technology — enable you to eliminate more of what you don't want in your product stream. Raptor Laser Technology works inside the Optyx® 6000-series sorter to attack foreign material and defects with superior vision, intelligence and speed.  Their powerful combination with Key’s industry-leading camera technology provides you the most complete sorting solutions available.

Raptor and FluoRaptor Laser Technologies work inside the Optyx 6000-series sorter to attack foreign material (FM) and defects with superior vision, intelligence and speed. FluoRaptor Laser Sorter adds the ability to sense varying levels of chlorophyll, detecting and removing extraneous vegetable matter (EVM) as well.

Raptor and FluoRaptor laser sorters are ideal for targeting glass, rocks, metal, rodents, insects and other field debris — as well as defects including subtle green tones in carrots and potatoes; pod, vine, and leaf in peas of the same color; husk and shank in corn; or core in iceberg, romaine, and cabbage.
