We have designed the first Agrosta Winterwood machine 3 years ago for blueberries and cherries. Since then, we have worked a lot in order to improve it, and are now preparing the 6th generation that will be available by the end of 2018 - It has been adapted to many other varieties, like grapes, tomatoes, strawberries, blackberries.. The main items we have worked on are : - Laser cutted table in Plexiglas for better rigidity, better washability and amazing look - Only one micorprocessor that manages the colorimeter, the firmness measurement and the motors, for easier maintenance : interchangeable electronics (Instead of 2 processors in current version) - A new measurement strategy with double pressure : The sensor first detects the fruit at high speed, moves back, and moves down again at low speed, touches the fruit again, and presses the fruit at very low speed - this provides incredible accuracy, and improved speed of operation The current version, coming with a very accurate spectrophotometer for color measurement, large turntables and simple software is very much appreciated worldwide, with huge demand in the sectors of Blueberries, cherries, blackberries, strawberries, tomatoes, grapes and cranberries
