Automated avocado processing line
In large-scale food production, handling avocados efficiently is crucial to maintaining a consistent output and minimizing waste. Manual pitting, peeling, and halving processes often lead to variable quality and increased labor costs.
Automates pitting, halving, and peeling avocados
The Robot Avocado Line by KRONEN is an automated system designed to efficiently handle avocados. Capable of processing up to 1,000 pieces per hour, it uses specialized robotics to pit, halve, and peel the fruit with precision. Employees place the avocados into trays, and the robotic system takes over. The dual-phase process involves a gripper that accommodates the fruit’s delicate nature, a pitting unit for removing the seed, and a knife for precise peeling. The system is adaptable, allowing for additional robots to increase capacity and optional integration with a belt cutting machine to process avocado slices or cubes. Its automated design ensures high yield with minimal waste, maintaining the integrity of the fruit.
