Tomato receiving and sorting system
Ensure top-quality tomato products by efficiently handling unloading, washing, and sorting of fresh produce. This system expertly prepares raw materials, eliminating impurities before they reach your processing line.

Unloads, Cleans, and Sorts Tomatoes and Fruits
The FBR ELPO Receiving and Sorting System is engineered to enhance the efficiency of tomato and fruit processing lines. Integrating seamlessly into existing operations, this system uses a systematic approach to unloading, washing, and sorting. It employs bin and case dumpers to handle raw materials, while powerful shower systems on roller elevators ensure thorough cleaning. An automatic scraping system effectively removes impurities like mud and stones, while an optical sorter eliminates foreign bodies, guaranteeing purity. With capacities ranging from 5 to 100 tons per hour, it is ideal for producing tomato paste, sauces, diced products, and aseptic fruit juices. Its PLC controls facilitate smooth automation and integration, and the robust design options offer durability in demanding food processing environments. Customization is available to meet specific plant requirements, making it a versatile asset for tomato and fruit processing facilities seeking reliable pre-processing solutions.
