Evaluation of a Hydrohandling System for Sorting and Sizing Apples for Storage in Pallet Boxes (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from Evaluation of a Hydrohandling System for Sorting and Sizing Apples for Storage in Pallet Boxes
The accumulator comes to rest on the rotating frame in the tank while the pallet box is submerged to the bottom of the tank. When one accumulator has been filled, the submerging conveyor is momentarily turned off while the accumulators are rotated 180° on the rotating rack. With the empty accumulator positioned over the submerging conveyor, the conveyor is restarted. The filled accumulator is now over the empty pallet box. When the lifting mechanism raises the pallet box, it also lifts the filled accumulator and as the unit is removed from the water, the apples settle from the accumulator into the pallet box. At the top of the lift, the pallet box is in line with roller tracks and is rolled away as another box is rolled in to repeat the cycle.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a comprehensive study of a prototype apple hydrohandling system for sorting and sizing prior to storage in pallet boxes. The system was designed to sort, size, and fill apples back into pallet boxes at a rate of 600 bushels per hour. Following successful installation, the system was tested under commercial conditions to evaluate its performance. The system met its design capacity and was found to be economically viable, especially when considering the potential gain in storage space for premium quality fruit. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of apple handling and storage operations. The author's insights provide a deeper understanding of the factors that affect the design and operation of such systems and highlight the potential for optimizing fruit quality and maximizing storage returns.
