Vision Systems for Fruit and Vegetable Sorting

Produce sorting requires fast, accurate decisions powered by robust imaging. FRAMOS provides fruit sorting vision systems designed to classify every item in milliseconds-by size, shape, color, and quality. Our solutions are trusted in high-volume grading lines where precision equals profit.

Vision systems for fruit and vegetable sorting

Produce sorting requires fast, accurate decisions powered by robust imaging. FRAMOS supports conveyor-based sorting systems with FSM:GO camera modules designed to capture moving products clearly and consistently.

For high-speed applications, FSM:GO IMX900 delivers global shutter capture at up to 125 fps, making it the strongest fit for fast-moving objects and precise defect detection. FSM:GO IMX662 provides Full HD imaging at up to 120 fps where compact resolution, low-light performance, and efficient real-time processing are required.

Frame rate advantage

At speed, frame rate protects sorting accuracy

High-speed sorting depends on sharp, repeatable image data. At higher conveyor speeds, low frame rates leave fewer inspection opportunities and make motion blur harder to control. Defect edges soften, contrast drops, and classification confidence falls. FSM:GO IMX900 and FSM:GO IMX662 provide the highest frame-rate options in the FSM:GO line, helping vision systems keep pace with moving products.

Reliable imaging for automated grading lines

Fruit and vegetable sorting systems need clean, consistent image data to inspect produce at speed, identify visible defects, classify quality, and support automated grading decisions.

Global Shutter Capture

FSM:GO IMX900 eliminates motion distortion when produce moves through conveyor-based inspection zones at speed.

4K Image Detail

While the IMX900 provides 3.2 MP, our FSM:GO IMX678 and IMX838 models offer 8 MP / 4K imaging for detailed surface inspection and quality analysis.

HDR for Varied Surfaces

HDR support preserves usable image detail across glossy, textured, bright, dark, or uneven produce surfaces.

Colour & Defect Inspection

High-quality image data supports sorting workflows based on colour, shape, size, surface quality, and visible defects.

Matched Lens Options

Validated optics and application-specific focusing match the camera view to object size, working distance, and inspection area.

Platform Integration

Interface options, platform support, and optimised image pipelines reduce camera bring-up effort in sorting equipment.

Use cases

One module, three sorting applications

01

High-speed conveyor grading

Camera modules positioned above or beside fast-moving conveyor belts classify produce by size, shape, and visible quality at throughputs exceeding 10 items per second per lane.

02

Surface defect detection

High-resolution imaging identifies bruising, discolouration, cuts, mould spots, and surface irregularities that cannot be detected by weight or simple colour sensors alone.

03

Multispectral & NIR classification

NIR-sensitive modules detect internal quality markers, water content, and ripeness indicators invisible to standard RGB sensors - supporting yield optimisation and shelf-life prediction.

  • Motion-ready inspection - Global shutter capture eliminates row-by-row readout artefacts that distort produce geometry and shift defect positions on fast conveyor lines.
  • Optics and focusing support - FRAMOS supports lens selection and focusing methods based on working distance, object size, inspection area, and image quality requirements.
  • System-level integration - Interface options, platform support, image pipeline optimisation, and custom integration services reduce camera bring-up risk in sorting equipment.
