Cherry singulation system
In the cherry processing industry, traditional methods of cluster separation often cause damage to the fruit, resulting in higher waste and lower profitability. These methods can also lead to clogs and bottlenecks, slowing down the entire production line.
Achieve gentle and efficient cherry singulation
The Cascade Singulator is a cherry singulation system designed by TOMRA to address the issues associated with traditional cluster cutters. Utilizing a water-based deceleration system, it gently separates cherries without causing damage. Custom-designed separators target the optimal point between cherry stems, minimizing stem tears and reducing sensitivity to stem-pull on mature fruit. This technology enhances throughput by preventing clogs and bottlenecks, and reduces the need for hand separation, thereby lowering harvesting costs. Notably, its gentle handling and superior separation capabilities can pay for the system in just one season.
Benefits
- Gentle handling reduces fruit damage
- Superior separation minimizes stem tears
- Increased throughput by preventing clogs and bottlenecks
- Reduces harvesting costs by eliminating the need for hand separation
- Fast return on investment
