Optimum Magnus: A New Preferred Choice for Intelligent Berry Sorting
Release time:2026-10-29
Efficient, non-damaging sorting of soft fresh berries such as blueberries, cherries and cranberries stands out as a prominent industry pain point, which directly impacts product premium value and market reputation. Conventional sorting equipment tends to cause bruising on fruit skin, while manual sorting struggles to balance throughput and consistent quality. The Optimum Magnus sorter, developed in Belgium and tailor-made for fresh soft berries, integrates cutting-edge combined laser and camera detection technology. It delivers high-speed sorting while protecting fruit integrity to the maximum extent, bringing a premium sorting solution for berry processors.

Gentle fruit handling for low damage
- A low-speed conveyor system with O-shaped strings minimizes the drop at discharge, greatly lowering the risk of fruit mechanical damage.
- Integrated camera and laser inspection enables simultaneous sorting based on both color and structure.

Unmatched detection accuracy with intelligent identification
- Its multispectral laser delivers extremely high precision, easily spotting tiny imperfections and fine berry stems that are hard for the human eye to detect.
- Multiple lasers can identify soft, shrivelled defective fruits, as well as foreign materials including wood, plastic, stone and glass. Combined lasers collect multi-dimensional data covering texture, color, density and more to guarantee consistent sorting performance.
- Equipped with AI-powered sorting software, it supports self-learning of fruit defect features. Operators can conveniently fine-tune detection sensitivity to flexibly adapt to the sorting standards of different customers and varieties.

High efficiency & sanitary design, easy integration into production lines
- Fitted with pneumatic ejector valves to blow out defective products with pinpoint precision. Overripe fruits are separated in a targeted way, preventing released juice from contaminating good fruit and the machine.
- Seamlessly integrable into existing production lines and compatible with all kinds of original production setups.
- The whole frame is constructed from stainless steel for easy cleaning and maintenance, complying with food processing hygiene standards.
