We have been in the agricultural sector all our life and know it inside and outside. We’ve seen different machines, optimisations and techniques come and go.
But we also saw opportunities that were not being used. That innovative techniques had not yet entered the agricultural sector, while they can mean so much more for improved grading and processing.
There’s another way, we thought. And that’s why in 2019 we started working on an optical grader for unwashed potatoes. After various tests and developments, the machine was ready for production use. Since then, the machine we turned into the U-Vision is helping various farmers in the Netherlands sort their potatoes while maintaining size and quality.
We use SigmaTek for PLC controls. When more computing power is needed for a camera system, for example, we will use a industrial PCs.
