Inspection tables for vegetables and potatoes

Even in highly automated lines, visual inspection remains the anchor of quality. We build the tables around your team’s working height, belt speed and lighting – not around a catalogue value.

Design

What matters when sizing the machine.

This is the information we need to recommend the right design and size for you.

  1. 01

    Workstations

    How many people sort at the same time, and from one side or both?

  2. 02

    Belt speed

    Slow enough for defects to be spotted. Fast enough for the capacity of the line.

  3. 03

    Rejects

    Where do rejected pieces go: to waste, to rework or to the shredder?

  4. 04

    Light and working height

    Both decide how attentively people can sort over a whole shift.

Frequently asked questions

Inspection: frequently asked questions

The inspection table is a belt table with access from both sides, reject chutes and adjustable belt speed. On the roller inspection table, rotating rollers turn the product so that the underside can be checked as well.

If defects on the underside matter, that points to the rollers. We build both to the working height, belt speed and lighting of your team, not to a catalogue value.

The starting point is how many people sort at the same time, and whether from one side or both. Belt speed has to be slow enough for defects to be spotted and fast enough for the capacity of the line.

Light and working height count as well: they decide how attentively people can sort over a whole shift.

We settle that with you before the table is built. Rejected pieces can go to waste, to rework or to the shredder.

The inspection table has reject chutes for this.
