Zhende Color Sorter Drives Global Grain Processing Industry Upgrade: Rice Sorting Technology Reaches New Heights
Xingtai Zhende Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. Announces Latest Technological Progress
Date: July 03, 2026
In the field of grain processing, the precision and efficiency of sorting technology directly determine the market competitiveness of products. Recently, Xingtai Zhende Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. announced a major breakthrough in the application of its independently developed sixth-generation intelligent color sorter for rice sorting. By integrating multispectral imaging technology and deep learning algorithms, the impurity rejection rate has been increased to 99.99%, providing a novel technological solution for global food safety and quality enhancement.
As global market standards for food quality and safety continue to rise, traditional sorting methods are increasingly inadequate for meeting the demands of high-end markets. After three years of dedicated research and development, Zhende's technical team has successfully launched a new sorting device tailored for fine grains like rice. The equipment employs a high-resolution CCD imaging system capable of accurately identifying defects in rice such as yellow kernels, diseased spots, white belly, and vitreousness, while effectively distinguishing heterochromatic impurities like stones and glass fragments. In actual production tests, a single unit achieved a processing capacity of 12 tons per hour with an 18% reduction in energy consumption compared to traditional equipment, bringing significant economic benefits to large-scale grain processing enterprises.
"We have observed that many processing enterprises face challenges with insufficient sorting accuracy when handling mixed materials of long-grain and short-grain rice," said Engineer Wang, R&D Director at Zhende Intelligent Technology. "The adaptive recognition module equipped in the new color sorter can adjust sorting parameters in real-time based on material characteristics, enabling precise classification even with mixed-variety raw materials." This technological breakthrough not only addresses the practical pain points of processing enterprises but also provides powerful support for rice exporters dealing with stringent international quality inspection standards.
At a large-scale grain group in Jiangxi, ten Zhende color sorters have been operating continuously for six months. The production manager of the enterprise explained: "Since introducing the new equipment, the yield rate of our premium-grade rice has increased by 5 percentage points, saving nearly one million yuan annually just from reducing manual re-inspection processes. Especially when processing raw materials acquired during the rainy season, the device's ability to identify moldy grains far exceeded expectations." This real-world application performance validates the stable performance of Zhende color sorters under complex working conditions.
Beyond hardware innovation, Zhende Intelligent Technology has also developed a cloud-based data monitoring platform. This platform can collect equipment operation data in real-time, predict maintenance cycles for key components through big data analysis, issue preemptive replacement alerts, and reduce unexpected downtime by 85%. Processing enterprise managers can use a mobile client to view sorting efficiency, energy consumption data, and quality reports of various production lines at any time, achieving digital management of the production process.
It is worth noting that the new equipment also features highlights in eco-friendly design. The adoption of a closed-loop airflow system reduces dust emissions to below one-third of the national standard, while modular structural design shortens the replacement time for core components to within 30 minutes, significantly improving maintenance convenience. These innovations in details reflect Zhende Intelligent Technology's product development philosophy of "technology for the people, environmental protection first."
Regarding international market expansion, the company recently reached cooperation agreements with several grain processing enterprises in Southeast Asia. A trial operation report from a medium-sized rice mill in Vietnam stated: "The color sorting equipment manufactured in China maintains stable performance even in hot and humid environments, with satisfactory sorting results for locally common small-grain varieties." This marks that Zhende sorting technology is now capable of global application, adapting to different regions and varieties.
As the grain processing industry develops towards intelligence and sustainability, Xingtai Zhende Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. will continue to increase its R&D investment, planning to launch dedicated sorting series for special grains and organic crops within the next two years. "Our goal is not only to manufacture equipment but also to provide reliable quality assurance solutions for the global food supply chain," stated the company's general manager at a recent industry forum. "From field to table, Zhende technology will continue to safeguard the quality and safety of every grain of food."
Currently, this series of color sorters has passed EU CE certification and multiple international quality standard tests, and has begun batch supply to domestic and international markets. Industry experts believe that this technological breakthrough will drive technological upgrades across the entire grain processing industry, contributing Chinese wisdom and solutions to global food security and quality improvement.
