Rice Color Sorter (256channels)

Product Overview

The CS-4A is a 256-channel chute-type sorter for large-scale rice mills. It handles 3.0 to 5.5 tons per hour — enough to carry the load on most commercial lines without needing a second machine.

Sorting accuracy is 99.99% or above. The optical system flags streaked grains, moldy kernels, broken rice, and the usual contaminants: glass, stones, plastic fragments. Carryover stays above 10:1, so the reject stream isn't eating into your yield. At 5 tons an hour, even a small percentage of good grain thrown out with the waste adds up fast — the math matters here.

Key points

5.5 tph on one machine. Designed to match the output of a full-scale processing line without splitting the flow across multiple sorters. The mechanical layout is stabilized for bulk feeding — no vibration drift under heavy load.

Catches what other machines miss. The sensors resolve color differences fine enough that mold spots and subtle streaks don't slip through. Standards hold across long runs, which matters when the buyer is inspecting at the other end.

Runs around the clock. High-speed matrix valves, reinforced structure, built for the kind of dusty, nonstop environment mills actually operate in. Downtime on a line pushing 5 tons an hour is expensive — the CS-4A is specced to keep that number low.

One control panel, broad coverage. Cloud remote tuning and auto-calibration cover the full rice workflow — white rice, millet, brown rice, black rice. Switch parameters and it sorts over 7,000 other materials without any hardware change.

3.2 kW at full throughput. That's the entire power draw. Compare it to running multiple smaller sorters or keeping a manual sorting line staffed, and the operating cost advantage shows up within the first year.

What it comes down to

If you're running at commercial scale and uptime, yield, and grade consistency are the metrics that matter, the CS-4A slots into that role without overcomplicating things.
