Market Overview:
The global optical food sorting machines market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for processed and packaged foods, rising awareness about food safety, and technological advancements in optical food sorting machines. The global optical food sorting machines market is segmented on the basis of type, application, and region. On the basis of type, the market is segmented into x-ray sorting systems, color sorting systems, NIR (near-infrared) sorting systems. The x-ray sorted system segment dominates the global optical food sorting machines market with a share of more than 50%. This can be attributed to its ability to detect foreign objects such as stones or metals in foods that could potentially cause damage or injury if ingested by humans. However, with technological advancements being made in color and NIR sensors for detecting defects in foods such as shape deformities or size variations; these segments are expected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. On the basis of application,the global optical food sorting machines market is divided into agricultural seeds,, fruit & vegetable,, coffee & tea,, nut,. Among these applications; agricultural seeds held majority share in 2017 owing high accuracy levels achieved by these systems while removing contaminants from seeds.
Product Definition:
Optical food sorting machines are used to automatically sort food items into different categories based on their appearance. This is important because it ensures that all of the food in a shipment is uniform in terms of size, shape, and color, which helps to speed up the packing process and reduce waste.
x-ray Sorting Systems:
x-ray sorting systems are used in optical food sorters to separate different types of foods based on their physical properties. These sorting machines use x-rays for the detection of differences in the density of various foods. The density difference between two materials is determined by measuring their absorption coefficient and scattering factor. Sorting systems can be differentiated into active and passive depending upon whether or not they require a user input for material selection, respectively.
Color Sorting Systems:
The global color sorting systems and its usage in optical food sorters market size was valued at USD 1,64,000 in 2015. The increasing demand for processed foods & beverages coupled with the growing population is expected to drive the growth of this industry over the forecast period.
North America Color Sorting Systems.
Application Insights:
The application segment is bifurcated into agricultural seeds, fruit and vegetable, coffee and tea, nut, and other. The agricultural seeds segment dominated the global optical food sorting machines market in 2017 owing to the rising demand for crop improvement techniques such as genetic modification. In addition, a rise in demand for hybrid crops has led to an increase in seed production which requires sorting.
Fruits and vegetables are expected to be one of the fastest-growing segments over the forecast period due to increasing consumer awareness regarding health benefits associated with fruits and vegetables. Furthermore, technological advancements coupled with implementation of advanced solutions such as color-changing x-ray systems are anticipated drive growth further.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017 owing to the presence of a large number of processing facilities and supermarkets. The region is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period due to technological advancements, increasing adoption rate of automation, and growing demand for food that is organically grown.
The Asia Pacific regional market captured significant share in 2017 as countries such as China and India are adopting these machines at a rapid pace owing to their rapidly expanding processed food industry.
Countries such as Japan have been at forefront when it comes come optical sorting machine technology with major manufacturers having their manufacturing plant based out of Japan including Fujitsu Ltd., Koninklijke Philips N.V., KHS GmbH & Co., Panasonic Corporation etc.; Countries like China; Indonesia; South Korea; Taiwan; Thailand etc.
