Infeed & Treatment
Compac's mangoes infeed solutions ensure a gentle transition from bin or field box to the sorter. Options include:
Bin Tipping
Our bin tipping technology is fully automated and efficient at dumping bins of mangoes gently onto the line. Different systems cater for between 20-120 bins per hour.
Small Fruit Eliminator
Using a mesh-like conveyor, under-sized mangoes are redirected before they reach the grader.
Treatment
A range of treatment options are available for washing, cleaning and treating mangoes from waterfall washing systems to brush washing and drying systems depending on the requirements of the packhouse.
Sorting & Grading
Central to Compac's mango packhouse solution is our state-of-the-art sorting technology. Your production requirements and capacity will determine whether single, dual or multi-lane sorting capabilities are right for your packhouse. What differentiates our sorting solutions is our innovative, industry-leading Spectrim, Inspectra and InVision mango grading systems. Both systems reduce labor requirements and provide you with unparalleled sorting consistency and accuracy.
Weighing
Compac's weighing and pack optimization software maximises profits and delivers unsurpassed accuracy by meeting pack specifications and reducing mango giveaway.
Color
Our intelligent, easy-to-use learning software enables intuitive recognition of fruit types and will adjust grading accordingly. Our systems can accurately perceive dark colors, subtle browns, soft pinks and stripes commonly found in different varieties of mangoes.
Surface Defects
Using Compac's advanced platform, mangoes are sorted by the presence of surface blemishes. Mangoes are then graded on minor to major defects including skin blemishes, insect damage, misshapen fruit, bruising and abrasions. Our platform can be configured to grade for differing levels of defects, providing maximum control when matching product grades to different markets.
Packing
Compac's packing solutions have been designed with mangoes in mind, ensuring a particularly gentle transition and handling. We have a range of mango packing solutions to meet the different needs of our customers including:
Bin Filling
Compac's soft-head automatic filling solution is particularly gentle on mangoes, distributing them evenly into the bin. Sensors detect when the bin is full and move on to the next.
Tray Filling
An efficient, gentle system designed to move mangoes from a cross conveyor into trays. Height adjustable, the Compac Tray Filler can accommodate different tray sizes, small boxes or cartons. Customers using this system have seen significant reduction in their tray filling costs.
Place Packing via Rotary Table
Compac's place packing from our rotary filling stations are designed for packing delicate or high value products. These stations accumulate mangoes for hand packing by your packhouse team. Our rotary tables come with sensors to ensure they are not overfilled which can cause damage to your fruit.
Carton Handling & Robotics
Reduce your labor requirements with our automated Carton Handling Systems (CHS).
The CHS tracks cartons from the sorter and distributes them to different destinations within the packhouse for palletizing and shipping. These intelligent systems can manage multiple boxes, products and destinations simultaneously. CHS integrates with the Compac Pack Printing system to automate carton labelling and data transfer to your ERP system for traceability, compliance and stock control.
Compac's pallet handling solutions improve efficiency. Our robotics ensure efficient and safe transportation of pallets around the packhouse, especially for high volume operations.
Data and Analytics
Compac's data and integration solutions track and record all mangoes as they cross the sorter and move through the packhouse. This information can then be shared with other packhouse systems such as ERP, traceability systems and carton printing applications. Reports on the performance of your operation can be generated, allowing you to feed this information back into your operation, making changes to optimize efficiency. We also facilitate remote sampling of various grades and sizes of mangoes for packhouse quality control.
