Tomato Sorting & Post-Harvest Solutions

High-Precision AI Grading for Modern Tomato Packing Houses

The Tomato Sorting Machine by Eshet Eilon is engineered to meet the sophisticated demands of today’s global tomato market. Whether you are processing Round, Roma, or Beefsteak tomatoes, our technology provides the perfect balance of high-throughput capacity and surgical precision. Our systems ensure that every tomato is graded by weight, size, color, and quality, delivering a consistent and premium product that meets the highest retail standards.

Our Core Commitment: Zero-Damage Handling

Tomatoes are highly sensitive to impact, which can cause internal bruising and significantly reduce shelf life without being visible on the surface. Leveraging over 50 years of engineering experience, we apply maximum efforts and specialized engineering to ensure zero impact damage. Every stage of our Tomato Sorting Machine, from the specialized soft-landing infeed to the final packing stations, is designed with “Soft-Touch” technology. We prioritize the fruit’s integrity, ensuring that the skin remains flawless and the texture stays firm throughout the entire sorting process.

Advanced AI Optical Grading: Color & Quality Excellence

Our AI-driven Tomato Sorting Machine utilizes state-of-the-art vision systems to analyze each fruit across multiple parameters with 360-degree precision:

• Dynamic Color Grading: Precisely separating tomatoes into various ripeness stages (from deep green to ruby red) to ensure perfectly uniform batches and consistent ripening for the end consumer.

• External Quality & Blemish Detection: Identifying skin punctures, bruises, growth cracks, and texture irregularities to guarantee only export-grade produce is packed.

• Size & Diameter Accuracy: High-speed measurement calibrated to handle different tomato varieties with pinpoint accuracy.

• Precision Weight Grading: Heavy-duty weighing cells integrated into the line to minimize product “give-away” and maximize your return on investment.
