Optical sorter

An object of the present invention is to provide an optical sorter which enables to eliminate occurrence of welding distortion on a frame and simply attain high positional accuracy of component members attached to the frame. There is provided an optical sorter according to the present invention, comprising: a chute arranged to slope and to allow a raw material as objects to be sorted out to flow down; optical detection means for detecting the objects to be sorted out dropping from a lower end of the chute; ejector means for sorting out and excluding the objects to be sorted out on the basis of a detection result by the optical detection means; and a discharge hopper that separately discharges the objects sorted out by the ejector means, wherein further comprising a frame having a pair of right and left sidewalls which are screw-fixed to a base, the chute, the optical detection means, the ejector means and the discharge hopper are attached to the frame, and the sidewalls of the frame are coupled with braces in a diagonal shape.
