New Packline Planned for Lindcove!

The Citrus Research Board is funding the purchase of a new packline grading system for the Lindcove research program.  Compaq Sorting Equipment will be building the line this summer and we hope to have it installed for the fall research season.  The new line will expand our research capabilities from fruit size, number and color to fruit weight, fruit shape, texture, blemish, brix, dry matter, internal defects, and other parameters because of the addition of advanced software, precision weighing, near infrared light, uv light, and additional cameras.
