Dry bin filling for delicate fruit

Handling delicate fruit like apples and pears in high-volume settings often leads to damage during the bin filling process. Without proper equipment, maintaining fruit integrity while achieving high throughput can be challenging.

Achieve gentle bin filling at high throughput

The Rotofiller dry bin filler by TOMRA is engineered for gentle handling of delicate fruit at high throughput levels. Its wide infeed belt (670mm) and variable speed-drive option minimize damage by maintaining low belt speeds while achieving the same throughput of 4 to 15 bins per hour. The Rotofiller is available in various configurations, including a fully automatic bin filler, automatic swing-over dual bin filler, and a simple single bin filler. It is suitable for a wide range of fruit sizes, with standard heads handling up to 125mm diameter and large heads up to 170mm diameter produce. This system also includes a self-contained, “Set and Forget” operation requiring no manual intervention, making it efficient and reliable. Additionally, the unit’s compact design ensures high throughput from a small floor area and is compatible with most industry bin sizes.
