VERYX Digital Sorters for Hydroponically Grown Greens
Key Technology, a designer and manufacturer of automation systems, has introduced its VERYX® digital sorters for fresh-cut, hydroponically grown leafy greens. VERYX sorters integrate with Iso-Flo® vibratory conveyors to find and remove defective product and foreign material, improving product quality while increasing yield.
According to a Key representative, hydroponic greens are a premium product that typically cost two to three times more than traditional, field-raised greens. Therefore, hydroponic growers must consistently achieve the highest quality to meet consumers’ expectations.
