Overview: The BEST PRIMUS™ is an advanced optical sorting system designed to enhance profitability and efficiency in food processing. It offers gentle handling, higher yield, reduced labor requirements, and improved product uniformity.

Detection Capabilities: The PRIMUS™ utilizes a combination of laser detection and camera sorting to identify foreign materials and discolorations. It can also sort based on chlorophyll levels, ensuring high-quality output.

Benefits: The system delivers a high-quality end product that meets consumer demands. It is fully automated, offering quick payback by efficiently removing soft, discolored products and foreign materials.

Product Handling: Specially designed thin and round transportation belts ensure gentle handling of delicate products like fruits. An air gun manifold precisely rejects unwanted products into a separate lane.

Applications: Suitable for sorting blueberries, cherries, cranberries, IQF raspberries, redberries, strawberries, and olives.

High Capacity & Low Maintenance: The innovative O-ring belt system reduces manual labor involvement, ensuring high capacity and low maintenance.

Working Principle: Products are singulated into lanes by parallel belts. Cameras and lasers inspect the top surface, and defects are ejected upwards by air puffs, minimizing damage to good products.

Optimal Inspection: The PRIMUS™ features multiple inspection zones with high-resolution cameras and lasers, adapted illumination, and enhanced detection efficiency.

Flexibility & Gentle Handling: The system is designed to minimize drops while maintaining inspection accuracy.

Ease of Use: An intuitive Graphical User Interface (GUI) and touch screen facilitate quality control and feedback. The PAX system allows remote access to machine settings.

Dimensions and Specifications: The PRIMUS™ has specific dimensions and utility requirements, ensuring compatibility with various processing environments.
