INCREASED ACCURACY & CONSISTENCY As vegetable handling equipment advances in its capabilities, the industry has seen more consistent results from automated handling processes, particularly when it comes to grading and sorting crops. The unique software of the latest machines, such as Tong's Visar, allows the systems to work as if product were being sorted manually, but with greater capacity and consistency. Unlike a manual workforce, machines do not get tired, are not subjective, and do not let good produce go to waste due to uncertainty or diverted attention. Instead, machines learn what defects are acceptable and not, thereby ensuring better grading results while significantly reducing labor costs. The same can be said for other vegetable handling equipment that, when integrated into a line, can automate processes to improve consistency, increase productivity and reduce labor costs. Examples include integrating a de-stoner into a washing In most cases, coupling a reduction in labor requirements with an increase in automation means the line can run more continuously for maximum throughput.
