What is the MEYER CG.4.0 Series and how is it different from the CG.4.0 AI?
+
The CG.4.0 Series is the standard multi-usage color sorter built on AI Deep Learning and Multi-spectral Recognition Technology. Its key advantage over the CG.4.0 AI is the optional UV sorting system for aflatoxin detection — critical for peanut and grain exporters. The CG.4.0 AI features a High Computing UHD AI Chip for deeper pixel-level detection. Both models share the same 6-model range and physical specifications but differ in their detection technology focus.
What is the UV sorting option and why is it important for peanut processors?
+
The optional UV sorting system uses ultraviolet light to detect aflatoxin-infected particles — a naturally occurring mycotoxin that appears on peanuts, maize, and other crops under certain storage and moisture conditions. Aflatoxin is invisible under standard visible light but fluoresces under UV, making UV sorting the most reliable method for its detection and removal. This is essential for processors supplying EU, US, and Japanese markets where aflatoxin limits are extremely strict and non-compliance results in entire consignment rejection.
What is Multi-spectral Recognition Technology?
+
Multi-spectral Recognition Technology means the machine analyzes product across multiple light spectra simultaneously — visible light, infrared, UV, and optionally X-Ray. This multi-dimensional approach detects defects based on color, shape, texture, and material properties — providing far more accurate classification than single-spectrum standard sorters. It enables the CG.4.0 to sort a wide variety of commodities with different surface and structural properties reliably.
What products and commodities is the CG.4.0 Series suitable for?
+
The CG.4.0 is suitable for grains (rice, wheat, maize), legumes (chickpea, rajma, soybean, mung bean), nuts (peanuts, cashew), seeds, fruits, vegetables, herbs, and spices. The AI Deep Learning model database covers a very wide commodity range — making it the most versatile model in the CG series for processors handling diverse product streams.
What are the technical specifications of all six models?
+
Six models are available: 120CG.A (1.3 kW, <2.5 m³/min, 1299×1564×2020 mm, 750 kg), 240CG.A (2.0 kW, <4.0 m³/min, 1891×1564×2020 mm, 1,120 kg), 360CG.A (2.7 kW, <5.5 m³/min, 2533×1564×2020 mm, 1,400 kg), 480CG.A (3.4 kW, <6.5 m³/min, 2991×1564×2020 mm, 1,750 kg), 600CG.A (4.0 kW, <8.0 m³/min, 3583×1564×2020 mm, 2,090 kg), and 780CG.A (5.0 kW, <10.0 m³/min, 4445×1620×2020 mm, 2,800 kg). All operate at 180–240V / 50Hz and 0.6–0.8 MPa.
How does the modular standardized design reduce maintenance costs?
+
The CG.4.0's highly modular and standardized machine structure means all components are interchangeable and manufactured to consistent specifications. With 70% of parts produced automatically and intelligently, quality consistency is very high. When a component needs replacement, the standardized design means the right part is always available and installation is straightforward — reducing both maintenance time and the risk of extended downtime.
Can the CG.4.0 sort multiple commodities on the same machine?
+
Yes. The CG.4.0 Series is specifically designed as a multi-usage sorter. Its AI Deep Learning model database and multi-spectral detection capability cover a wide range of commodities. Operators can switch between product types with parameter adjustment, and the machine's flexible configuration options accommodate the different physical properties — size, color, shape, surface texture — of diverse commodities.
What support does NICPL provide for the CG.4.0 Series in India?
