Why visit
Sorter Expo Dhaka 2026 (5-7 Nov, ICCB) is where South Asia's rice, grain, seed, pulses, nuts, and recycling processors evaluate colour sorters and optical sorting lines up close. Visitors can compare CCD and NIR sorting platforms, chute and belt configurations, ejector and camera specs, and throughput claims across multiple manufacturers in one hall - the practical way to shortlist a machine, calibrate a defect-rejection program, or benchmark a competitor's line. Hall equipment demos let procurement and QA teams test reject ratios on their own product samples.
Why exhibit
Exhibitors reach a concentrated audience of Bangladeshi rice millers, seed processors, pulse and spice packers, and plastics recyclers who are actively upgrading sorting capacity - typically the decision-makers and technical leads who sign off on a machine purchase. ICCB hosts the show in Dhaka, putting exhibitors in front of the country's largest agro-processing and food-export base. Demonstrable differentiation lies in optical sorting specs: camera resolution, NIR channels, ejector speed, and throughput per chute. Use the expo to run live product tests, recruit regional dealers, and convert inbound enquiries into installation-ready quotes.

FAQs & glossary
Answers
Frequently asked
Glossary
- Colour sorter
- An optical sorting machine that uses cameras and ejectors to reject off-colour, defective, or foreign material from a flowing product stream such as rice, grain, or seeds.
- Optical sorting
- Machine sorting that uses light-based sensors (visible and near-infrared) to classify and separate product by colour, shape, or composition.
- CCD
- Charge-coupled device - the image sensor type used in colour sorters to capture the product stream for optical inspection.
- NIR
- Near-infrared sensing used in sorting machines to detect defects or foreign material that visible-colour cameras cannot distinguish, such as plastics or stones in food streams.
- Ejector / nozzle
- The pneumatic valve in a sorter that fires a short air burst to deflect a rejected particle out of the accepted product flow.
- Chute sorter
- A sorter format where product slides down multiple channels and is viewed by cameras, allowing high throughput per machine.
- Belt sorter
- A sorter format where product travels on a conveyor belt past the camera and ejector array, typically used for larger or irregular pieces.
- Throughput
- The volume of product, often expressed in tonnes per hour or channels, that a sorter can process in a given time.
- Reject ratio / defect removal
- The proportion of defective or foreign material removed by the sorter from the input product; a key performance metric in buying decisions.
