Before we map out your sorting line, let us settle the terms that usually cause friction later. These notes define what we mean by capacity, throughput, and site readiness so the proposal matches your floor plan, not a brochure.
Throughput figures we quote refer to whole apples entering the infeed, not the packed output. Sorting accuracy, defect rejection rates, and the number of lanes all reduce the effective number. We state both raw feed rate and realistic packed yield for your specific fruit size distribution, so the number you plan around is the one you can actually run.
Our team supervises the mechanical assembly and runs the electrical and optical calibration on site. Your maintenance crew works alongside us during commissioning so they learn the adjustment points before we hand over. We do not leave a line running until the reject accuracy meets the agreed sample test, and that test uses your fruit, not a lab batch.
We measure available floor space, ceiling height for the optical frame, power supply capacity, and water access for washdown. Conveyor runs longer than 12 meters need intermediate supports, and the floor slope has to stay within 1.5 degrees. If your building has columns or drainage channels in the path, we flag them before quoting the layout, not after.
Every line ships with a starter kit of the parts that wear fastest: belt segments, sensor wiper blades, and nozzle seals. For the rest, we keep a local stock in Klang and ship within two working days. Consumables like lubricants and cleaning agents are specified by brand and grade in the manual, so your purchasing team can source them without waiting on us.
A practical timeline of what happens after you contact us, from the initial floor assessment to the day your first batch of apples runs through the sorter.
We walk your packing floor, measure available space, and map where the conveyor can feed from your existing bins. You get a written summary of what fits and what needs reworking before any equipment is ordered.
Based on your typical daily volume and apple varieties, we define the number of lanes, sensor types, and reject mechanisms. The goal is a clear spec sheet you can review line by line before we move forward.
You receive a scaled floor plan showing where each module sits, how operators access the line, and where maintenance hatches are placed. We also flag any electrical or drainage requirements your team needs to prepare.
Your conveyor sections and sorting modules are built in our Klang workshop. We run a full test cycle with sample apples to confirm calibration, then send you video of the line in operation before it leaves the facility.
Our crew handles unloading, positioning, and mechanical connection of all sections. We work around your packing schedule so the installation does not shut down your existing operation for more than a single shift.
Your staff learns how to set sorting parameters, clear jams, and read the reject reports. We stay for the first full production run and adjust thresholds until the line matches the quality you expect.
