Optical Sorter Market and Top Companies
Optical Sorter Market Applications
Food: In the optical sorter market, food applications include the sorting of food products, such as vegetables and fruits; dried fruits and nuts; meat and seafood; and grains, cereals, and pulses. Food sorting forms the largest application segment in the optical sorter market. The growing adoption of automated equipment in the food industry is a major driving factor for the optical sorter market as optical sorters offer benefits such as improved food safety, better food quality, shorter delivery cycles, and increased output.
Recycling: In the optical sorter market, recycling applications include sorting of plastic, paper, organic waste, construction & demolition (C&D), E-scrap, metal, and glass. Recycling is a form of waste management that involves the reprocessing of waste material into reusable products. In recent years, many developed and developing countries have introduced specific recycling and environmental performance targets aimed at encouraging people to recycle waste.
Mining: In mining applications, optical sorters are used to sort industrial minerals, precious metals, and others. Major mining companies use sensor-based sorting equipment for industrial mineral processes.
Camera-based optical sorters are widely used in the mining industry to detect coated materials like industrial minerals (calcite, quartz, magnesite, and others) and separate them accordingly at a very high throughput rate.
[151 Pages Report] The optical sorter market is valued at USD 2.0 billion in 2020 and is expected to reach USD 3.3 billion by 2025; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.2% from 2020 to 2025.

The outbreak and the spread of COVID-19 have affected the optical sorter market. A number of industry experts are of the opinion that this pandemic will subside by the end of the first quarter of FY2021. Considering the inputs from various industry experts from different stages of the optical sorter value chain (which include component manufacturers, OEMs, system integrators, end users, and distributors) as well as after consulting the financial releases of different companies in the optical sorter market ecosystem for the first, second and third quarters of 2020, it has been estimated that the size of the optical sorter market is expected to witness a decline of 2% from 2019 to 2020.
The optical sorter market for belt platforms is expected to grow at the highest CAGR from 2020 to 2025. Belt sorting equipment is widely used in various applications such as food, recycling, and mining, as they provide higher sorting accuracy and a low carryover ratio. Belt sorting equipment has high-performance capabilities for fresh, frozen, and dried vegetables and fruits, processed potato products, and nuts. This process minimizes the risk of food contamination further down the line and leads to improved product quality
Cameras are expected to hold largest share of optical market during forecast period from 2020 to 2025. Camera-based optical sorters are more accurate and can detect minute defects in products; therefore, these optical sorters are preferred in various applications. Cameras are widely used in food sorting applications to sort vegetables and fruits, dried fruits and nuts, and cereals, grains, and pulses. Based on flexibility, monochromatic, dichromatic, and trichromatic cameras that have the capability to detect minute infractions in products, both within and outside of the visible light spectrum, are available in the market.

The Optical sorter market in APAC is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during forecast period. In APAC, industries are focusing on automation to increase productivity and quality. Growing automation in the application areas of the market is also expected to create demand for optical sorters in this region. Other concerns supporting the adoption of automation in APAC countries include labor shortage and increasing labor costs.
Automation allows businesses to improve their performance by reducing errors and improving productivity. Several industries are shifting their focus to automation to accelerate processes and maintain the quality of the final products. This approach is allowing these industries to reduce manual work, improve hygiene, and speed-up processes. The growing automation in major target industries for optical sorters, namely, food, recycling, and mining, is considered a positive indicator for market growth. Over the last few years, innovative and smart technologies have been adopted to manage and reduce specific waste, such as food and plastic waste.
Optical sorting equipment use advanced technologies and are thus priced at a premium. Though optical sorters help improve process efficiency and final product quality, their high initial cost can be a deterrent for some potential end users with controlled budgets.
Recent advancements in detection technologies and intelligent software have enabled optical sorters to influence product quality, maximize yield, and better recognize aspects of processing operations. However, in spite of these advancements, manufacturers are still facing several challenges, majorly in terms of the difficulty of operation of optical sorters. To overcome these challenges, new software developments are focused on user-friendly machines that give processors the power to control specifications about rejections. Thus, in addition to becoming more intelligent, optical machines are also becoming easier to operate.
Sorting technologies such as vision, infrared, and X-ray are capable of sorting different plastic products. Currently, sorting a more varied mix of plastics is becoming increasingly important to reduce contamination in bales and enable more commodity plastics to be added to the recycle stream. However, infrared sorting technologies have some limitations in terms of identifying and separating plastics that contain carbon black. The presence of the black pigment prevents the transmission of infrared light back to the sensor, owing to which infrared sorters cannot efficiently sort these plastics.
