CASI




Spain

The Cooperative Agricola San Isidro, CASI, reference cooperative of Almeria in the tomato’s world, has installed this year two new lines of the company MAF RODA. Specifically, for grading the delicate tomato, a 4-lane POMONE IV sizer has been installed with outlets on brushes and 16 accumulator assemblies. This installation allows CASI to process without difficulty more than 11 tons / h of delicate tomato without jeopardizing the quality of the final product.

On the other hand, given the growing demand for tomato marketed in tubes that has been experienced in recent years, CASI, has installed an electronic sizer filling baskets with alternative outlets, so that this filling is done while preserving the quality of the fruit without hitting it at any time. This innovative concept offers therefore the possibility of filling tubs in a delicate way while offering all the versatility of an electronic sizer unlike traditional weighers.

"The treatment of the product and analysis systems of the POMONE sizer from MAF RODA are undoubtedly one of the most adapted today for the preparation of delicate tomato varieties. Our experience with the POMONE sizer acquired in 2013, has been decisive to carry out this new investment. With regard to the filling system of tub from an electronic grader, MAF RODA showed us that there were other ways to carry out this work and we bet for it. In terms of efficiency, and dealing with fruit, it has even exceeded our own expectations."
