] Thanks to Unitec technologies, sorters and quality classifying systems we have succeeded in creating a brand, since our fruit is recognized by its uniformity.Were a growing company and with UNITEC we feel that were supported by a partner with whom we can continue to grow our business."With these words Pablo Godoy, Managing Director of the Chilean fruit and vegetable packing plant Servicios San Cristobal, spoke in 2017 about how impressed he was by the performance of UNITECs Cherry Vision 3.0. UNITEC Group was also present at Macfrut with Unisorting, a new, professional solution for apples and pears: Unical 8.0 with Apples Sort 3 and Uni 9.0 Pear with Pears Sort 3Unisorting, specialized in quality selection of apples, pears, dates, potatoes and onions, will also make an appearance at the Rimini trade show with some of its most recent innovations.One of these is Unical 8.0, launched in 2017 and awarded with the 2017 Macfrut Innovation Gold Medal, now with the new Apples Sort 3 vision solution, which stands out for its ability to classify apple quality.Among the customers who immediately understood the potential of this technology, Giancarlo Minguzzi is the owner of the namesake fruit and vegetable company and expressed his satisfaction as follows:The first result is the rapidity we obtained in detecting and selecting the defects according to the required quality.Regarding the software, we noticed that it is very easy to use. Speaking with my operators, Ive seen that it suits them very well.The compact design of the sorter is one of the characteristics I noticed in the first place. I did not think that by shrinking the sorter like we did, we would still reach a higher productivity.All the parts of the machine, and in particular the cups area, are easy to clean, therefore we avoid contaminations. We can use high-pressure cleaners without damaging any part of the machine, and this is already a big advantage itself.The Apples Sort 3 vision system featuring very high resolution cameras classifies every apple with extremely high accuracy and efficiency, ensuring unprecedented precision.This technology can provide a response to an extraordinary range of needs and parameters: internal defects, external defects, Brix content, adding to traditional size, color and shape. Moreover, it can classify apples based on combinations of the same parameters, making it possible to create new product classes.Unical 8.0 was designed to be 100% sanitizable, that is to say it can rid fruit of contamination during the sorting phase."We work for your results is the essence of UNITEC"I would rate UNITEC within the top two companies Ive ever dealt with in my life.Firstly for professionalism, secondly for friendship, thirdly for the partnership.Thats the sort of people they are.Theyre working not only for themselves, for their business, they are working for yours."With these words Trevor Hall, owner of the Australian fruit and vegetable packing house Hallmark Orchards filled the hearts of the UNITEC staff with joy.Every type of fruit has its own specific characteristics (fragility, shape, requirements, etc.). With its passion, enthusiasm and professionalism, the UNITEC Team provides answers for almost all types of fruit (including the most challenging ones), producing tangible results for fruit and vegetable packing plants in the world that want to provide reliable and consistent solutions to customers and end consumers alike.In Unitec we work every day to help our customers achieve their goals," said Angelo Benedetti, Chairman of the Group.
