[GPEC 2022] Equipped with a transmissive optical sensor Keyboard-type fruit sorter Smart sorter - Yanmar Agri Japan Co., Ltd.

This machine is a non-destructive fruit sorter with an optical sensor that can measure sugar content.

Another feature is that
we are introducing it now, but

usually the fruit sorter is hand-held.
Raw materials are placed one by one, but in the case of this machine, it is an optical sensor fruit sorter with an automatic feeder that can be put in in this way.

Another feature is the processing power, but 5 fruits are selected per second.
The maximum capacity is 18,000, which is a fruit sorting machine that can sort fruits.

Since a normal fruit sorter takes about 3 seconds, it is a machine that has 1.5 times the processing capacity of a normal fruit sorter.

In the non-destructive inspection, there is a picture on this side, but the

sugar content has the characteristic that it is absorbed by a specific light,

so as shown in this picture, the tomatoes are illuminated and measured with this sensor. ..

For example, if you apply a wavelength of A to 100 and
a value of 70 is obtained with this sensor, you can see that only 30 is absorbed and it is not very sweet.

If you shine a light of 100 and the value is 30, it means that you have absorbed 70, so it’s a very sweet tomato.

Using the property that sugar is absorbed by a specific wavelength, it is

non-destructive, cut and squeezed normally, and measured with a sugar content meter, but it is a mechanism that can be inspected without cutting it. We now have.

The merit is labor saving.
Normally, in the case of a fruit sorter, there are people who put it in, and there are people who put it in

and one person doubles it, two people, and people who pack the box, but in

this case, it is put in once. For example, after putting it in, we will go to pack it until it is empty, so we can save labor from 3 people to 2 people, no 1 person.

Also, the processing capacity I mentioned earlier is 1.5 times that of a normal fruit sorter, so the capacity is also high.

It will be a feature of this machine.
