Raw produce processing demands split-second timing, consistent flow rates, and seamless coordination between multiple systems. ExtendAg's industrial motor control automation delivers the precision control your facility needs to maximize throughput while maintaining product quality.
Motor and Gate Control Systems
Conveyor speed optimization and precise gate timing for consistent product distribution with variable speed control
Bucket and Dump Control Systems
Synchronized filling, dumping sequences, and automated startup/shutdown to optimize line flow
Scales Integration and Data Management
Real-time weight capture, automated sorting, and mass balance calculations for comprehensive tracking
Advanced Processing Line Coordination
Complete system integration that adapts to product characteristics and processing demands
Manual control of processing equipment creates inconsistencies, bottlenecks, and quality variations. Operators can’t react fast enough to changing product conditions. Equipment runs at fixed speeds regardless of product flow. Data capture is incomplete or delayed.
ExtendAg’s motor control automation adapts. Adjust conveyor speeds and gate timing. When throughput needs to increase, coordinated control optimizes every component. When quality standards shift, precise control maintains consistency.
Handle complex processing operations with synchronized motor control across your entire line. Automated startup and shutdown sequences optimize line flow. Variable speed control adapts to product characteristics and quality requirements. Precise gate timing ensures consistent product distribution.
Monitor processing performance with continuous data capture and analysis. NTEP approved accurate scale readings based on timing or no motion detection. Automated mass balance calculations for dirt/foreign material, water gain/loss, and produce peeling losses. Real-time weight or count data feeds directly into inventory and yield tracking systems.
