Fully automatic cleaning, air drying and sorting production line helps increase production capacity by 300%
In September 2023, our company successfully customized and delivered a cherry tomatoes cleaning, drying, and sorting production line for an agricultural product processing enterprise located in Thailand. The customer is mainly engaged in the production and processing of agricultural products. The automated production line purchased this time not only meets their full process needs for cleaning, drying, and sorting of cherry tomatoes, but also significantly improves their production efficiency and profitability.
