Zhongde Intelligent Technology Leads the Upgrading of the Coarse Cereals Industry: New Generation Intelligent Color Sorter Efficiently Sorts Rice, Ensuring Dining Table Safety
Xingtai Zhongde Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. May 19, 2026 — As global standards for grain quality and safety continue to rise, the coarse cereal processing industry is undergoing a profound transformation driven by intelligent technology. Against this backdrop, Xingtai Zhongde Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Zhongde Intelligent Technology"), leveraging its profound technical expertise and continuous innovation in research and development, recently successfully launched and delivered a new generation of intelligent color sorter series specifically designed for rice sorting. This series of equipment, with its exceptional sorting accuracy, impressive processing efficiency, and outstanding stability, is helping numerous grain processing enterprises, both domestic and international, achieve dual leaps in production capacity and product quality, building a solid technological barrier to safeguard consumers' "safety on the tip of the tongue."
As a leading supplier of intelligent sorting solutions in China, Zhongde Intelligent Technology understands deeply that rice, as a staple food, has its purity and visual quality directly impacting consumer choice and health. Traditional manual sorting methods are not only inefficient and costly but also struggle to ensure consistency. Subtle color differences, moldy grains, or foreign impurities can easily slip through. Addressing this industry pain point, Zhongde Intelligent Technology assembled expert teams in optics, artificial intelligence, mechanical engineering, and other fields to conduct comprehensive technical research and performance optimization for the new-generation rice color sorter.
The core of this newly launched intelligent rice color sorter lies in its "SharpVision" AI multispectral recognition system, independently developed by Zhongde. This system breaks through the limitations of traditional RGB recognition, capable of simultaneously capturing subtle characteristic information of materials across multiple spectral bands. Whether it's yellowed rice due to improper storage, slightly moldy grains, or inorganic impurities such as glass fragments, stones, or plastic pieces similar in color to rice grains, or even quality grading based on differences in belly white or chalkiness, the "SharpVision" system can perform millisecond-level precise identification through deep learning algorithms. The recognition accuracy rate exceeds 99.9%, ensuring the sorting effect meets or even surpasses export-grade standards.
While ensuring ultimate sorting accuracy, Zhongde Intelligent Technology has made high efficiency and low loss another key criteria in equipment design. The new generation color sorter adopts a modular high-speed valve array with ultra-short response time and high injection precision. It can accurately eject defective products and impurities while rice flows through at high speed, minimizing impact on good grains, significantly reducing broken rice rates and good material carry-over during processing. This directly enhances customers' rice yield rate and economic benefits. Its processing capacity, depending on the model, covers a wide range from several tons to tens of tons per hour, meeting the diverse production scales from small processing workshops to large modern rice mills.
In addition to "hardcore" performance metrics, the equipment's intelligence and user-friendly operation experience are also key focuses for Zhongde Intelligent Technology. The newly designed control platform is equipped with a high-definition touch screen, featuring an intuitive and friendly interface. It comes with preset sorting models for various rice varieties and common impurities. Users can also customize and store parameters based on their specific raw material characteristics. The equipment features complete self-diagnosis and remote monitoring functions, providing real-time feedback on operational status, production data, and sorting effectiveness. It supports integration with factory MES systems, offering critical data support for enterprises' digital and intelligent management. Furthermore, the equipment adopts an energy-saving design, operates with low noise, and is easy to maintain, effectively reducing customers' long-term operating costs.
Currently, this series of intelligent rice color sorters has been successfully deployed in major rice-producing regions within China, such as Northeast, Central, and South China, as well as in overseas markets including Southeast Asia and South Asia, receiving high praise from customers. A person in charge from a large rice enterprise in Heilongjiang said: "Zhongde's color sorter has completely solved our long-standing problem of incomplete sorting of colored grains and glass impurities. The quality of finished rice has significantly improved, and customer complaint rates have almost dropped to zero. It has truly achieved the goal of 'high quality commands a good price' and strengthened our brand's market competitiveness."
The person in charge of Xingtai Zhongde Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. stated: "We are always committed to integrating the most cutting-edge intelligent sensing technology into sorting equipment, promoting the upgrading of processing industries in agricultural products and more fields. The success of the rice color sorter is just one epitome of our deep cultivation in the field of intelligent sorting. In the future, we will continue to focus on customer needs, constantly expand technological boundaries, and provide more efficient, reliable, and intelligent Zhongde solutions for global customers in sorting a wider range of materials such as coarse cereals, nuts, renewable resources, minerals, and more. We aim to contribute Chinese wisdom and strength to global food safety and quality, as well as the refined utilization of resources."
Zhongde Intelligent Technology will continue to use innovation as the engine and quality as the cornerstone, joining hands with global partners to jointly depict the new blueprint of intelligent sorting technology empowering the high-quality development of traditional industries.
