The machine reproduces human work more consistently and efficiently
Feeding System
highly increased hourly sorting capacity

A simple and ingenious rotating system aligns potatoes of all sizes, smoothly and almost without any duplicates
![](https://www.visar-sorting.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Sortop-potatoes-vp03-capacity-1.jpg)
The sorting capacity is at 1.40 m (4 ft 7 in) potatoes per second.
The weight of 1.40 m (4 ft 7 in) potatoes per second extrapolated
to one hour results in the hourly sorting capacity.
Optical Module
highly precise 360° analysis

Thanks to a mirror system and a very powerful all-round lighting that eliminates shadows, every vegetable is subjected to a perfect 360° analysis. The optical system generates 3 immaculate high-resolution images of each potatoe. These can be displayed immediately on the computer screen to check the error detection.
- High-resolution color and infrared camera, error detection from 0.16 mm2
- Calibration accuracy at 20 to 90 mm square mesh grading; calibration by the weight of each tuber with a 5% accuracy
- Visualization of images with display of error detection
- Accepts all shapes of potatoes

Intelligent Software
Acts as a human being
The principle is based on artificial intelligence, which enables the subjective evaluation of the quality, shape and appearance of each potatoe and thereby replicates the human appreciation. Combined with other measurable criteria (the slightest defects such as wireworm damage for example), this setting allows the fine-tuning of the sorting accuracy.
- Statistics function
- Complete traceability of each batch
- Perfect integration of the computer and the electrical control built into a waterproof control cabinet

A person evaluates the quality of the vegetables by brecisely visualizing and analyzing the entire surface.

Its assessment is global by combining both quantifiable and subjective information.

Quality criteria may vary based on business needs.

A human being is able to adapt the quality of his sorting, but his constancy decreases with fatigue.

The machine is able to reproduce the work of a human more consistently and more efficiently.

5 Quality levels
The software allows an easy setting of 5 quality levels (plus waste). The volume and value of the product sold is increased and waste is reduced to a minimum. Thanks to the accuracy of the setting and the unique sorting consistency of the software, a significantly higher yield per batch is achieved.
- Easy setting of 5 quality levels plus waste
- The extra quality product volume is increased
- Waste is reduced to a minimum
- Significantly higher yield per batch
Ejection and Outputs
gently & exactely

Ejection
A nozzle system blows the potatoes towards the assigned outputs with extreme precision. The fall is cushioned by soft materials that guarantee a smooth landing.

Outputs
The machine is equipped with 6 outputs: 5 of them can be freely parameterized and one is used for the waste.
The products of each exit are passed onto individual conveyor belts. The sorting criteria can easily be adapted to the specific needs of each customer.
