Accept Reject Chickpeas A combination of Bühler inspection system using multiple wavelengths of visible light technology and broadband LED lighting detects subtle discolouration such as yellow, white and dark brown delivering a uniformed appearance and superior quality end product. Lentils A combination of enhanced feed system and Bühler SmartEject TM technology allows accurate detection of defects especially during high capacity sorting delivering high yields with low rejection of good grains. Also suitable for a variety of whole and split pulses such as dry beans, pigeon peas, green and black gram applications. Seed spices Bühler's proprietary PROfile TM technology can eliminate challenging foreign materials which are similar in colour to good products such as sticks, mudballs and stones as well as hollow and diseased infected seeds delivering maximum food safety. Sesame seeds Bühler's own high-resolution cameras and broadband LED lighting removes challenging defects such as light brown from natural sesame seeds and yellows from hulled sesame seeds to deliver a pure and export quality end product.
