Launch of new video: How can Newtec Celox-P-UHD optimise your potato sorting?

Newtec's optical sorting machine for potatoes, model Celox-P-UHD, is designed to sort potatoes by size, shape and quality in a single-stage process. The machine sorts washed potatoes directly, eliminating the need for pre-grading and minimising the need for manual labor, whilst ensuring consistent quality output and high throughput.

In a new video, Newtec proudly present their new and improved camera section of their Celox-P-UHD which includes:
 

• Newtec AI Vision Engine Gen3
• Dual Lens Cameras
• Next-Gen Hardware

Christian Max Villadsen, Head of Sales at Newtec:
 

"We believe that this is the next generation of optical sorting machines offering countless opportunities."

With a mix of real footage and animations, the video visualizes how the highly accurate tracking and grading of the potatoes takes place.

Modular Design - Expandable Systems Up to 16 categories of products can be sorted out simultaneously. Sorting criteria for these categories are instantly customisable according to the current needs. Premium product selections can effortlessly be sorted out of bulk produce.

Being completely configurable by the operator or factory manager the sorting machine permits near-instant turn-around time and unparalleled flexibility. Additionally, the machine collects detailed real-time product data which is available with Newtec WebServices. The same data can optionally be integrated in your own business IT-systems for further analysis.

Sorting in the most profitable way

Every single potato is assessed in the camera section. The extended camera section is equipped with 3 cameras that photograph each and every potato up to 45 times to capture precise data on size, shape and surface quality. The design of our camera sections is adapted to potatoes.

The potatoes are conveyed and led through the camera section on vibrating rollers - a unique and patented system which ensures that the potatoes are inspected from all angles because they rotate while they are propelled forward by gentle roller vibrations. The machine is constructed with maximum efficiency in mind, combining high production throughput with a relatively small footprint.

Christian Max Villadsen:
 

"We are proud to offer an efficient and space-saving machine that ensures a very thorough quality check and classification of every single crop before it is presented in the sales packaging. We look forward to optimising the value of each of our customers’ potatoes by sorting them in the most profitable way."
