About second-hand Sorting machines

As many types of vegetables and fruits exist, there are just as many different types of sorting machines developed over time to quickly, efficiently, and accurately sort these products. Some sort by size, others by weight, and sometimes even optically by color and/or internal quality. During the development of sorting machines, a specific type of vegetable or fruit is usually taken as a starting point, for which the sorter is optimized. Occasionally, certain sorting machines can also be used for multiple types of vegetables and fruits. For this, please contact one of our advisors to explore the possibilities.

In addition to precise sorting, considerable attention is also paid to the product-friendliness of the sorting machine, ensuring that delicate vegetables and fruits are not damaged during the sorting process.

On this page, you will find an overview of all used sorting machines currently in our inventory. From flat belts to roller sorters, crate lifts, and scales, we have them all available in our second-hand offerings. Everything is available from our own stock.

If you still have questions, feel free to contact us so that one of our advisors can assist you in determining which sorting machine best suits your needs.


Why Sorting Machines are Used

 Vegetables and fruits are natural products that can vary in size, weight, and color. The goal of sorting is to obtain a uniform group of products, making all vegetables and fruits equally attractive to consumers. The sorted products can then be delivered to customers specifically seeking a particular size or type. Sorting adds value, enabling growers to obtain better prices for their vegetables or fruits.


Different Types of Sorting Machines 

As mentioned, like the wide variety of vegetables and fruits, there are also many different types of sorting machines. This is partly because a leek, for example, differs greatly in shape from a tomato, and also because different products have different selection criteria. For instance, sorting may be based on weight per product, color, or size.

For all these different criteria, we have used sorting machines in stock. Some of the most popular types include:

Second-hand Fruit and Apple Sorting Machines

Second-hand fruit and apple sorting machines are a cost-effective choice for fruit growers looking to improve the quality of their produce. These machines sort fruit based on size, weight, and/or color, ensuring uniform batches that meet market standards.

Brands such as Aweta, Greefa, and Burg offer reliable solutions that enhance the efficiency and accuracy of the sorting process. Besides apples, these machines often sort other fruits with similar characteristics like pears, avocados, and mangoes. On this page, you'll find all our used fruit and apple sorting machines.

Used Potato Sorter

Potato sorting machines are essential in agriculture for efficiently sorting potatoes based on size and quality. These machines help farmers and processors better categorize their products, leading to increased efficiency and reduced waste.

There are various brands and types of potato sorters available, such as those from Aweta, Burg, Greefa, and Wamel Perfect. These machines vary in capacity and technology, depending on the specific needs of the user. Some machines utilize advanced optical systems to inspect and sort potatoes, while others use mechanical methods.

Duijndam Machines offers a wide range of used potato sorting machines. On this page, you'll find an overview of all our usedpotatosorters.

Sorting Machines for Bulbs and Sprouts

Second-hand bulb and sprout sorting machines separate products based on size using techniques such as shock sorting, roller sorting, and weighing machines. Bulbs are measured by circumference in centimeters, while sprouts and onions are sorted by diameter in millimeters. Shock sorters achieve accuracy by shaking products over sieves, whereas roller sorters offer high capacity but lower accuracy. For delicate bulbs like lilies, weighing machines are used to accurately weigh and count them. Duijndam Machines offers various second-hand sorting machines for bulbs and sprouts.

Tomato Sorting Machines

Second-hand tomato sorting machines are selected based on the type of tomato and desired sorting criteria such as weight and color. Some machines, like the Aweta KG, optically and electronically sort loose tomatoes based on color and weight, while others sort solely by weight or size. For vine tomatoes, portioning systems are used to achieve the desired weight per tray, often with automatic destacking systems.

Setting up sorting line

In addition to the sorting machines themselves, which sort vegetables and fruits by weight, size, or color, there is also a variety of supporting equipment for the sorting process. This includes conveyors that supply sorting machines with the products to be sorted, machines that fill or tip crates after sorting, and machines that weigh trays. By connecting all these machines together, an (automated) sorting line can be established. Machines used for this purpose include:

If you're looking to set up a sorting line but are unsure about compatibility, please don't hesitate to contact us. One of our advisors will be happy to assist you.
