APPLE SORTING
Sorting apples This is a key step in preparing fruit for sale and distribution, affecting its quality and market value. We offer modern apple sorting lines equipped with vision systems and precise weighing, ensuring high efficiency and process repeatability.
Line to Apple Sorting
- Expert in apple sorting and fruit and vegetable technologies As a Polish manufacturer of apple sorting lines, we design and implement electronic sorting machines (sorters) for fruit growers, packing plants, exporters, and distribution centers. Our solutions combine high accuracy with gentle fruit handling, ensuring repeatable results and stable batch quality in continuous operation.
- Vision system and precision weighing – real-time classification Our lines utilize an innovative vision system and a tensometric weighing system. This allows apples to be graded in real time based on size, color, and external quality, and in some cases, internal quality. Intuitive settings allow for quick adjustments to parameters for specific orders and markets.
- Flexibility and versatility of applications We build systems tailored to your scale and process: from compact tracks to multi-track lines with wet or dry unloading, packing tables, fillers, a Class II conveyor, and palletizing. Modular design facilitates expansion as volumes increase, ensuring complete quality control and maximum operational efficiency throughout the entire chain—from reception to dispatch.
Classification and sorting apples
We are the only manufacturer in Poland and Central and Eastern Europe comprehensive, technologically advanced apple sorting lines. The electronic sorting machines offered by our company are equipped with a tensometric weighing system and innovative vision system for product classification according to various parameters such as size, color and quality (external and internal).
Weight - real-time measurement accuracy
In lines equipped with a strain gauge weighing system, electronic sensors with digital filtering and noise reduction measure the weight of each apple in real time, stabilizing readings and facilitating order picking for specific weight classes. This is the heart of a professional sorting machine in applications where product weight is a key commercial criterion.
Size – precise calibration of diameter and shape
Apples are classified by size based on a series of photos and shape analysis. Vision system algorithms precisely distinguish between sizes, ensuring batch uniformity and consistent packaging appearance.
Color – control of color and blush
Industrial cameras analyze the degree of color and blush. Grading thresholds can be easily adjusted to meet local and export market requirements. The apple sorting machine maintains consistent color grading even under varying lighting conditions.
Quality – commercial vs. industrial selection
The vision system inspects the surface of each fruit, detecting external defects (e.g., mechanical damage, stains, cracks) and—in advanced configurations—indicating internal defects. This allows for the reliable separation of commercial and industrial apples and the creation of quality subclasses for specific contracts.
Selecting a solution to scale and process
Mono Line compact single-track
MONO machine is a compact and professional solution designed for small and medium-sized farms. Designed for sorting spherical fruits and vegetables with a diameter of 40 to 100 mm, such as apples, tomatoes, citrus fruits, apricots, peaches.
The device achieves a performance of up to 18,000 pieces per hour and enables precise sorting by size and color. Thanks to the use of a vision system, the machine ensures the highest precision of classification in real time.
MONO machine offers flexibility in the unloading method and ensures smooth and safe transport of fruit without the risk of damage.
The line is equipped with a 6-meter-long buffer channel, a modern dryer with a three-stage filtration system, a V-type conveyor and ergonomic output tables.
• Application: precise sorting based on a vision system, with an emphasis on gentle product flow.
• Unloading: aqueous or dry.
• Advantages: compact size, high repeatability, excellent performance to space ratio.
The fault line for large volumes and full automation
CUP Bowl Machine is a modern, universal solution for precise sorting of fresh fruit and vegetables. It gently transports products with a diameter 50–130 mm such as apples, tomatoes, citrus fruits, pears, peaches, apricots.
The line can have from 2 to 6 tracks and reach up to 2.5 t/h per path, and sorting is done in real time according to size, color, weight and quality, which ensures high accuracy and efficiency. The bowl machine can be easily expanded with a water unloading system,unloading operations and devices packaging and palletizing.
Different types of media – standard or oblong bowls – they also handle products with non-standard shapes, such as zucchini, cucumbers, and eggplants. They're the perfect choice for producers looking for an efficient, reliable, and precise sorting system.
RDS – Roller Dump Sorting Machine – compact dimensions, impressive performance
RDS is a compact, high-speed sorting machine for spherical fruits and vegetables. The innovative integrated roller system guides the product continuously, without transferring between segments during measurement. This track significantly reduces bruising and allows for a shorter line than in bowl machines with the same number of outputs. RDS It is available in two variants: with water unloading (immersion unloading + water channels + drying) and with dry unloading (tipper + expansion conveyor), which makes it easy to adapt it to the hall and the type of raw material.
