The apples, pears or other fruits are delivered to the cups with a singulator. On the singulator, the fruits are singled out to make sure that every cup contains only one fruit when being weighed.
The desired weight can be selected for every weight section with an indicator clock. The heaviest (largest) fruits are dropped at the first exit and the lighter fruits later. By defining the size/weight ration, a simple sorting by size can be realised with the help of the MGS.
The products are distributed per exit, based on their weight. If necessary, one weight class can be spread out over multiple exits.
A fruit friendly handling was the focus of the development of the MGS. Minimum and well thought out transfers result in high-quality fruit.
For supply and packaging, PERFECT – Van Wamel offers various suitable solutions. We would happily talk to you to compose the best suitable configuration for your wishes and requirements.
