Due to the newly developed short construction of
our Opti Sort G-Series, shortage of space in your pack shed is a
problem of the past. This well thought-out machine is one-sided and
can therefore be placed directly against the wall. Thus the machine
does not form a barrier anymore but assures an optimal and steady
flow of goods.

Working with the Machine:
After an optional scanning 1 of the bar code on the
box, the asparagus spears are placed on the feeding belt 2 and
spread out with as little space between them as possible. After an
optional pre-cut 3 which shortens the spears to 30 cms, the
asparagus is washed in the washing tunnel 4. In order to reduce the
water consumption, the water once used is canalized into the water
treatment section 5 and used again. At the end of the washing
tunnel, the washed asparagus is rinsed with fresh water in order not
to allow any germs on the spears.
Afterwards the spears are transferred to the
sorting line 8 and singulated so that no more than one asparagus
spear per cup is transported to the camera. At the same time the
aligning belt ensures the correct position of the spears for the
second cut 6. We offer our customers the option of installing an
elevator belt 13 that transports the waste cuts into a bulk bin.
When passing the video camera 7, the asparagus is rotated and
scanned several times, which makes it possible to recognize the
entire surface of the spear and therefore achieve very accurate
sorting results. The computer processes the collected data and
determines the chute 9 in which the asparagus spear is gently
dropped. Your personnel can now take the sorted product from the
collecting cups and place it in the corresponding boxes directly
above the chutes. In order to ease the flow of goods it is also
possible to install a conveyor belt 10 on top of the machine and a
roller conveyor 12 behind it to transport the full boxes. The last
chute is the overflow, which discharges the goods that do not
correspond to the predefined criteria.
