The optical sorter market is projected to grow USD 2.6 billion in 2022 to USD
4.1 billion by 2027; it is expected to grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate
(CAGR) of 9.9% from 2022 to 2027. The market has a promising growth potential
due to several driving factors including, growing focus on automation to
increase productivity in various industries, increasing adoption in the food
industry for food processing activities and for reducing process and delivery
time; increase in wages of the manual workforce in various countries; and stringent
government regulations regarding food safety. All these factors plays a key
role in driving the growth of the optical sorter market.
The camera type optical sorters to dominate the
market during the forecast period
Camera type optical sorters are expected to dominate
the optical sorter market throughout the forecast period. It is further
expected to grow at a significant rate during the forecast period. Camera-based
optical sorters are more accurate and can detect minute defects in products;
therefore, these optical sorters are preferred in various applications such as
food and recycling. The camera sorting machines are the most ideal and
cost-effective optical food sorting machines in the quick-frozen vegetable and
fruit processing industry. The TOMRA’s (Norway) Blizzard, a free fall optical
sorting machine is an example of a camera-based optical sorting machine with
pulsed LED technology that is used for sorting frozen vegetables and fruits.
Further, the RGB full-color series cameras are ideal for multi-color
applications or minor shade variations. As a result, camera-based sorters are
an ideal platform and series of sorters for detecting and sorting/separating by
subtle shade and color differences, speck defects, foreign material, insect
damage, mold, decaying product, and so on.
The market for hyperspectral cameras & combined
sorters to grow at fastest CAGR during the forecast period
The market for hyperspectral cameras & combined
sorters is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period and
account for the second-largest share of optical sorter market during 2022-2027.
This technology increases FM (foreign material) and/or EVM (extraneous
vegetable matter) removal, often achieving efficiency with very low false
reject rates. The hyperspectral cameras are used to identify the unique
fingerprint of the material. Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has been used in a
variety of applications and industries, including the detection of rock
minerals from airborne images and the detection of foreign materials in food
processing. For quality inspection, hyperspectral imaging is gradually becoming
a viable alternative or supplement to X-rays, RGB cameras, and 3D models.
Combined sorters, on the other hand, combine a variety of sorting technologies
to achieve optimal sorting quality. TOMRA 3C freefall optical sorter by TOMRA
(Norway), for example, employs a high-resolution camera and dual laser units.
The camera type segment is expected to dominate the
optical sorter market from 2022 to 2027
The camera type segment is further expected to
dominate the optical sorter market for hybrid platform throughout the forecast
period and grow at a significant rate between 2022 and 2027. The 360º vision
cameras allow for an easy and effective inspection of every part of the subject
under consideration. Furthermore, infrared cameras provide the most effective
identification of colors in food application, while the latest smart digital
color cameras provide exceptional defect identification accuracy. This is the
main reason for the domination of food application in the optical sorter market
for hybrid platform throughout the forecast period. The cameras are capable of
accurately classifying the various qualities of each fruit, ensuring a precise
division of the various quality characteristics of every type and variety of
fruit.
Optical sorter market in North America is expected
to maintain the highest share during 2022–2027
North America is expected to hold the largest share
of the optical sorter market throughout the forecast period. North America is
the leading regions in the optical sorter market owing to the increasing
popularity of the optical sorting machines in the food industry.

This growth can be attributed to factors such as
rising population, technological advancements, growing industries, strong
manufacturing sectors, and overall increase in demand for automation. In North
America, automated sorting is an important technology for many food processing
operations. The presence of strict regulations regarding food safety is another
factor driving the growth of this market. Recycling is another major
application area in North America, mainly due to the focus on waste management
in the US. The growth of the North American market is also driven by the
existing well-established infrastructure for mining application in the region.
The US is one of the countries where automation in food, recycling, and mining
industries is contributing to the demand for optical sorters. Major companies
such as Key Technology (US), Machinex (Canada), NATIONAL RECOVERY TECHNOLOGIES
(NRT) (US), and CP Global (US) are based in North America.
