According to claim 4, an automated production line for removing impurities and grading white tea is characterized in that: The No. 3 finished product elevator (305) and the No. 4 finished product elevator (405) are respectively arranged at the first discharge ports of the No. 3 color sorter (30) and the No. 4 color sorter (40).

6. The automated production line for removing impurities and grading white tea according to claim 5, characterized in that: The discharge positions of the No. 1 finished product conveyor 1 (105), the No. 1 finished product conveyor 2 (106), the No. 2 finished product elevator (205), the No. 3 finished product elevator (305), and the No. 4 finished product elevator (405) are all installed with visual sensors to capture the white tea material transportation situation in real time and send visual signals to the control room; the control room receives various information of all equipment of the first production line and the second production line, and sends operation instructions to realize remote control of the production line.

7. The white tea grading method of the white tea impurity removal and grading automated production line according to any one of claims 1 to 6, characterized in that: The steps include: S1, conveying the white tea raw material to the first color sorter (10) and the second color sorter (20) through the white tea raw material conveying device, and performing three-level four-discharging intelligent sorting of the white tea; S2, the sorted discharge from the first discharge port of the No. 1 color sorter (10) and the sorted discharge from the first discharge port of the No. 2 color sorter (20) are combined and transported together to the No. 4 color sorter (40) for another three-level four-discharge intelligent sorting of white tea; S3, the sorted discharge from the third discharge port of the second color sorter (20) and the sorted discharge from the third discharge port of the first color sorter (10) are combined and transported together to the third color sorter (30) for another three-level four-discharge intelligent sorting of white tea; S4, the sorted materials discharged through the second discharge ports of the No. 1 color sorter (10), the No. 2 color sorter (20), the No. 3 color sorter (30), and the No. 4 color sorter (40) are returned to their respective color sorters for re-sorting; S5, the materials discharged from the fourth discharge ports of the first color sorter (10) and the second color sorter (20) are collected and transported to a recycling and packaging area for recycling; S6. The materials are discharged through the first discharge port, the third discharge port and the fourth discharge port of the color sorter No. 3 (30) and the color sorter No. 4 (40), thereby forming a multi-level impurity-removed and graded finished product of white tea.
