AUTOMATIC FRUIT WEIGHER
Machine for the post-harvest treatment of fruit and vegetables (especially citrus fruits), designed to automatically weigh and fill boxes of different formats, guaranteeing precision and efficiency in packaging.
The loose fruit arrives via a double-track top conveyor belt:
•A quick-unloading tarpaulin, which allows large quantities of fruit to be added at once.
•A thin dosage canvas, which drops the fruit piece by piece until the exact weight is reached.
Both belts deposit the fruit in a hopper with automatic pneumatic opening, located on the lower chain conveyor. It incorporates a lifting system with adjustable arms, which adapts to the dimensions of each box, guaranteeing stability and precision during filling.
Once the process is complete, the box continues to the checkweigher area with integrated scale, where the operator can manually check and, if necessary, correct the fill to ensure that all boxes meet the set weight.
