Various types of fragile fruit like cherries, raspberries, cranberries, blackberries, blueberries, and apples (whole or sliced), fresh or frozen. You want to offer the widest possible assortment, but preferably with as few different machines as possible. Stray twigs or leaves? A rotten apple? Globally, food safety regulations are becoming increasingly strict, and consumers are becoming more discerning as well. The presence of foreign materials or substandard products isn’t just a matter of food safety – in an increasingly competitive market, quality issues can be detrimental to your reputation. Unfortunately, you can’t fully control the quality of the fruit, as every season is different. Still, you aim to consistently deliver a high standard to your customers.
In short, it's crucial to optimize your sorting process: detect as much foreign material and defects as possible, without unnecessarily discarding good products.
With its advanced high-resolution color camera system, the MAGNUS accurately detects deviations in color, size, and shape.
To further improve sorting accuracy, the MAGNUS can be equipped with our latest laser technology. By combining multiple lasers with specific wavelengths, the MAGNUS easily identifies structure and biological characteristics, ideal for detecting soft and shriveled fruits and removing foreign materials such as wood, plastic, stone, and glass.
The MAGNUS boasts an unmatched laser scanning speed of up to 4000 scans per second, achieving an optical resolution of 0.3 mm. This enables it to accurately detect stems.
The MAGNUS offers both a single and dual rejection system to separate color defects from soft or rotten fruits and foreign objects. In dual rejection or ThreeWay mode, the MAGNUS ejects soft or rotten fruits downwards, ensuring that their ejection path is separate from that of good product to prevent contamination by juice.
The Novus is available in different sizes. Its maximum scanning width of 2400 mm makes it the widest optical belt sorter on the market. The NOVUS may be used for many different applications: fresh, dried or frozen potato products, fruit and vegetables, crustaceans and shellfish, confectionery and nuts.
The VENTUS may be equipped with up to 16 lasers (and 32 laser detectors). With an impressive laser scanning speed of more than 4000 scans per second, it offers the highest resolution of all laser sorters on the market. In addition, all different laser signals are processed simultaneously by our Multi Dimensional Laser System (MDL) system, which outperforms all other systems.
In order to get an excellent good-to-bad ratio even for the smallest products, you can equip it with a high-resolution valve system: ultra-fast and small blowing jets with a center-to-center distance of 4.6 mm.
