Potato Optical Sorter – Processing Plant
Industrial-grade sorter for high-volume potato lines that removes defects and foreign material without slowing throughput.
+ $8,500 one-time setup and installation · 36-month term
- Throughput: 10–40+ tons/hr
- Installation and operator training included
- Seasonal maintenance and support included
Industrial-grade accuracy for operations that need reliable defect removal, consistent quality and maximum throughput. Multi-camera vision and high-speed ejection identify and remove defects, foreign material and off-grade potatoes before they reach downstream processing.
Russet, red, gold, baby or specialty varieties: the sorter improves quality control, reduces labor and protects your customers and brand.
Built for high-demand production
Potato lines run long hours with highly variable incoming product. A stainless-steel frame, sealed electronics and washdown-ready construction withstand:
- Dust, dirt and heavy soil loads
- Humidity and temperature swings
- Daily sanitation and chemical cleaning
- Rapid product flow and high belt speeds
Advanced vision for high-precision sorting
Each potato is imaged as it crosses the line to identify:
- Bruising and pressure damage
- Green spotting and sun scald
- Cuts, cracks and deformities
- Rot, mold and surface decay
- Stones, clods, vines and other foreign material
Built for demanding ag environments
