Chestnut sorting and grading system
Optimize chestnut processing with advanced sorting technology that ensures precise size classification and defect detection, enhancing product quality and market readiness for your produce.
Sorts and Grades Chestnuts with Precision
The Chestnut Vision 3, paired with the UNICAL 244 from UNITEC, delivers exceptional precision in sorting and grading for the food processing and agricultural industries. This equipment utilizes advanced vision systems to detect defects such as cracks, holes, and buds in chestnuts, categorizing them by size, form, and quality. It handles applications across fresh produce, bakery, and processing sectors, delivering end-products like roasted chestnuts, chestnut flour, and bakery fillings. With a high throughput capacity designed for continuous, automated operation, it seamlessly integrates into existing production lines. The system, built with durable materials, ensures reduced maintenance downtime and is supported by comprehensive engineering and customization options.
