Fruit and Vegetable Sorting Machine Product Reviews and Comparisons

The working principle of fruit and vegetable sorting machinery is mainly based on sensor technology and mechanical device technology. Fruit and vegetable sorting machines are usually composed of conveyor belts, sorting devices, sensors and control systems. The conveyor belt is responsible for transporting fruits and vegetables to the sorting device, and then classifying them according to factors such as size, shape, and color of fruits and vegetables. The sensor detects parameters such as the size and color of fruits and vegetables, and transmits the detection results to the control system. The control system controls the operation of the sorting device based on the received data, thereby realizing the automatic sorting of fruits and vegetables.

1. Classification of fruit and vegetable sorting machinery

Fruit and vegetable sorting machinery can be classified according to different classification standards. For example, it can be classified according to factors such

as size, shape, color, or weight. Some equipment also uses a leaky sorting belt for vibration sorting, and sorts fruits and vegetables according to their diameter. The drum is composed of circular holes with gradually increasing diameters, and the specifications can be customized according to the actual size of the required fruits and vegetables.

Fruit and vegetable sorting machinery can be divided according to different classification standards, mainly including the following types:

• Sorting by weight: Fruit and vegetable weight sorting machines mainly grade fruits and vegetables according to their weight. This type of equipment can usually be subdivided into multiple grades and is suitable for a variety of fruits such as apples, pears, peaches, mangoes, kiwis, etc.

Sorting by size:

• Drum grader: Suitable for most spherical fruits and vegetables, the materials are graded while rolling and moving on the drum. There are holes of different apertures on the drum, and the materials fall out of the small holes and are collected as one level, and so on.
• Roller grader: Suitable for spherical or nearly spherical fruit and vegetable raw materials, such as apples, citrus, tomatoes and peaches, etc., graded by diameter size, with a grading range of 50-100mm.

• Sorting by shape: This type of sorting machine is usually used to screen fruits and vegetables of specific shapes, such as round or nearly round fruits.
• Other categories: In addition to the above categories, there are some special fruit and vegetable sorting machines, such as electronic weighing fruit pickers, which use pressure sensors to weigh fruits and control sorting through a microcomputer system, with high accuracy and control flexibility.

2. Application scenarios of fruit and vegetable sorting machinery

Fruit and vegetable sorting machines are widely used in fruit and vegetable processing plants, supermarkets, restaurants and other places. In these places, fruit and vegetable sorting machines can help companies automatically sort fruits and vegetables, improve the quality and consistency of fruits and vegetables, reduce the cost and error of manual sorting, and improve production efficiency and output.

Application scenarios of fruit and vegetable sorting machinery:

• Drum grader: suitable for sorting spherical and near-spherical materials
• Electronic weighing fruit picker: Although the operation is complicated and the cost is high, it has broad prospects in practical applications due to its high accuracy and control flexibility

3. Advantages of fruit and vegetable sorting machinery

Fruit and vegetable sorting machinery has the following advantages:
