This machine is designed to separate the open from closed pistachios. Its Pistachio Sorting ability is up to 98%. The sorting process is in a mechanical way. There are several groups depending on the model and each one consists of two spike axes and two brush axes. The spike axel has the ability to catch the open pistachio and the axle brush releases it and drives it to a specific collecting place, open pistachio exit. Close pistachios cannot be hatched by the spikes, so are driven to another different collection site, close pistachio exit.

Pistachio Open Close Sorter's Control

The pistachio open close sorter is fully adjustable. Pistachio's feeding, axes rotation speed, pistachio's retention time on the axes, axis angles are controlled by a variable electronic speed drive. By choosing the specific adjustments, you can change the percentages between open, close pistachio in a matter of minutes. This allows duplicating existing sorting parameters, but also provides the ability to modify the parameters and possibly improve the process in the future.

Pistachio Open Close Sorters offered in different models, depending on their productivity.

A common Pistachio Sorter consists of:

• Pistachio Feeding elevator
• Pistachio waiting silo
