Abstract :Sensor-based separation systems, which are becoming increasingly common in production facilities, have started to replace the manual sorting method. In particular, it is now preferred to carry out these operations with optical machines without the need for manpower as well as production follow-up, in order to increase the production performance in the processes. Product specification was made in the form of desired (white) and undesired (dark) products fed through optical machines within the scope of the study. As the product, quartz materials of 5-10 mm dimensions, which are difficult to choose manually, were preferred. Two separate feeding products were selected and the data of these products at different feeding rates were examined in order to comply with the customer product quality spectrum. When the output data of the feed sample entering the optical machine within the scope of the study was examined, the machine selection efficiency was found to be 99.3-98.4% for the desired white colour product at different feed rates (10-20 tons/h). On the other hand, the productivity in the dark coloured (waste) product, which is an undesirable product at different feed rates (10-20 tons/h), was obtained as 91.2-83.2%.Keywords : Optik Sınıflandırma, Optik Makine Verimi, Cevher Zenginleştirme
