Market Overview:
The Global Chute Type Optical Sorter Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth is attributed to the increasing demand for food safety and security, rising recycling rates, and growing mineral production. The market is segmented on the basis of type, application, and region. On the basis of type, the market is segmented into cameras, lasers, NIR sorters, hyperspectral cameras & combined sorters. Cameras held a major share in 2017 owing to their low cost and high accuracy levels; however laser sorting systems are witnessing high adoption rates due to their ability to sort smaller particles with higher accuracy levels as compared to other types of optical sorters. On the basis of application, food held a major share in 2017 owing to stringent regulations by government agencies across different countries for safe food production; however recycling rates are expected witness highest growth during the forecast period as municipalities strive for Zero Waste initiatives across different geographies.
Product Definition:
A Chute Type Optical Sorter is a machine that uses optical sensors to identify and separate different colors of plastic pellets. This type of optical sorter is important because it can quickly and accurately sort large quantities of plastic pellets by color.
Cameras:
Cameras are used in optical sorters for sorting the chutes according to their sizes. The factors that propel the growth of cameras in chute type optical sorter market include high demand from packaging industry and need for automation among others.
The major challenge faced by the camera vendors includes image quality issues arising due to noise, dynamic range compression, and sensitivity along with low light performance which reduces efficiency of a system.
Lasers:
Lasers are used in optical sorters for various applications such as sorting, scanning, cutting and welding. They are also used in automated material handling systems such as chutes and hoppers. The type of laser to be employed depends on the application requirements. For instance, a sortation system requires a low level or medium level laser while an inspection system requires an ultraviolet or visible light source.
Application Insights:
The application segment is segregated into food, recycling, mining and others. In 2017, the food application dominated the global market with a share of over 80%. Optical sorters based on this technology are used to sort various fruits and vegetables such as potatoes, onions and garlic from other products such as grains at high speed without bruising or breaking them. The sorting helps in maintaining product quality by reducing the occurrence of off-specification products which can be recycled back to manufacturing facilities.
Optical sorters for recycling are primarily used at material recovery facilities where recyclable materials undergo a series of processing steps including screening and crushing before they become raw materials for further use in manufacturing processes or new end-products. Optical sorters help reduce human efforts during sorting operations while increasing productivity significantly by minimizing contamination risks due to increased throughputs along with improving overall efficiency across all operations at these plants thus driving their demand over the forecast period.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global chute type optical sorter market in 2017. The region is expected to witness a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to increasing industrialization and rising awareness about environment protection along with rapid economic development in countries such as China, India, and Japan.
The growing population coupled with increasing disposable income has led to an increase in demand for processed food products which is subsequently driving the recycling industry across these regions. In addition, growing mining activities due to scarcity of natural resources has resulted into increased demand for sorting machines from various end-use industries such as metal & ore processing, mineral processing, and coal preparation etc., thereby fueling regional market growth over the forecast period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for high-quality and defect-free products: The global Chute Type Optical Sorter market is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 5% during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for high-quality and defect-free products from various industries.
- Rising adoption of automated optical sorting solutions: The global Chute Type Optical Sorter market is witnessing a rising adoption of automated optical sorting solutions, owing to their ability to improve product quality and reduce manufacturing costs.
- Growing popularity of sustainable production practices: Manufacturers are increasingly adopting sustainable production practices, which is resulting in an increase in the demand for Chute Type Optical Sorters that help reduce environmental impact.
- Proliferation of ecommerce platforms: The proliferation of ecommerce platforms has led to an increase in the number of online shoppers, who are looking for high-quality and defect-free products delivered quickly and efficiently. This is driving the growth of the global Chute Type Optical Sorter market.
