More efficient quality control at Wiskerke Onions thanks to automation<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a short time, Wiskerke Onions significantly improved their onion sorting line. Not only in terms of efficiency, but also in quality control. Automation solutions from Flikweert Vision and KV-Techniek play a crucial role in this. \u201cIt is much more efficient and causes much less stress than before,\u201d says Wiskerke.\u201d<\/p>\n

The family-run Zeeland company, founded in 1933, grew into a leading onion supplier. Every year, the company processes and packs more than 190,000 tonnes of onions for supermarkets and wholesalers. Large cargoes are exported to over 130 countries via the port of Vlissingen. With a strong focus on sustainability, energy saving and quality control, the company continues to continuously optimise, which benefits both product quality and processing efficiency.<\/p>\n

From manual sorting to precision automation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Flikweert Vision took the sorting process at Wiskerke to the next level. The addition of a Divider and two QualityGraders made the process more efficient. Where previously eight people manually removed tare, the machine now takes over completely. Jan Zweemer, head of quality at Wiskerke, notices the difference immediately:\u00a0\u201cIf we compare the tare removed by a Flikweert QualityGrader and by manual sorting, we see that the machine works much more accurately.\u201d\u00a0<\/em>Six additional QualityGraders were integrated by the end of 2024, leaving only one operator needed. This saves 24 employees and guarantees consistent quality from morning to night. Advanced camera technology and artificial intelligence efficiently control the sorting process.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n\n
