Advanced lemon and lime grading

360° precision grading

Whatever the size or shape of your lemons and limes, GranTorino grading machine handles them all. Its unique rotating carrier creates a 360° view of each lemon and lime, allowing you to analyze the entire surface for quality characteristics and defects such as blemish, calyx, rot, stalk, crease, corrugations, mold, oleicellosis, end checks, navel deformations and more

A heavyweight in weighing

The GranTorino lemon and lime grading machine volumetrically weighs every lemon and lime at high-speed using images from advanced cameras. Our unique TrueSort™ software also monitors the average product weight and capacity per hour.

It all measures up

Every lemon and lime rotates under the camera as 40 images are taken to measure the entire surface. This lets the machine calculate the precise diameter, length and surface area. It will also recognize shape related defects or doubles (2 products in 1 cup).

Grade every color

Ultrafine color separations are created using TrueSort™ software allowing operators to quickly create or modify color profiles. Then using live feedback from the cameras, the color is accurately graded.

Stay in full control

TrueSort’s™ easy-to-use dashboard gives real-time data such as the percentage of defective lemons and limes, the amount of waste and the distribution of different quality aspects for each batch. This lets you make accurate operational decisions on-to-go whilst also giving you the freedom to incorporate data from your sorting process into dashboards and ERP systems.

End-to-end traceability

From infeed to packaging, end-to-end traceability is crucial to guaranteeing lemon and lime quality and safety. These insights can help improve your profitability, optimize your operating efficiency, analyze yields, and reduce food waste. It’s why every package is labeled so it can be tracked and traced back to the original grower and the field it came from.
