What Techik Can Do for Fruit & Vegetable Processors?
1. Foreign Contaminant Detection
Foreign objects are among the leading causes of customer complaints, product recalls, and export rejections.
Common contaminants include:
• Stones
• Glass
• Metal
• Plastic
• Shell fragments
• Dense rubber pieces
• Machinery fragments
What Techik Can Do
Techik X-ray inspection systems can detect and reject foreign objects in:
• Frozen vegetables
• Frozen fruits
• Dried fruits
• Dehydrated vegetables
• Packaged products
2. Appearance Defect Sorting
Many fruit and vegetable products are graded based on appearance.
Defects directly affect:
• Product value
• Export standards
• Customer satisfaction
Common Defects
• Black spots
• Mold
• Rot
• Insect damage
• Discoloration
• Sunburn
• Immature products
What Techik Can Do
AI-powered optical sorters and X-Ray can automatically identify and remove defective products.
3. Hair & Minor Contaminant Removal
Hair contamination is one of the most difficult challenges in vegetable processing.
Especially in:
• Garlic
• Onion
• Carrot
• Green onion
• Leafy vegetables
Traditional color sorters often struggle to identify hair-like contaminants.
What Techik Can Do
Techik UHD Intelligent Belt Visual Sorters can detect:
• Hair
• Feathers
• String
• Insects
• Small foreign contaminants
4. Product Grading & Classification
Manual grading is labor-intensive and inconsistent.
What Techik Can Do
Techik AI systems can classify products based on:
• Color
• Shape
• Size
• Surface characteristics
5. Low-Density Foreign Object Detection
Some contaminants are difficult for conventional systems to detect.
Examples:
• Thin glass
• Small stones
• Bone-like materials
• Dense plastics
What Techik Can Do
Multi-energy X-ray technology improves detection sensitivity for difficult foreign materials.
6. Finished Product Inspection
Quality problems discovered after packaging are expensive.
What Techik Can Do
Inspect packaged products for:
• Foreign objects
• Missing products
• Weight compliance
• Packaging defects
7. Labor Reduction & Automation
This is becoming one of the most important topics globally.
Industry Challenges
• Labor shortages
• Rising wages
• Inconsistent inspection results
What Techik Can Do
Automate quality control tasks traditionally performed by workers.
Examples:
• Defect sorting
• Product grading
• Foreign object inspection
