MAF RODA: AI and robotics technology for the citrus sector

Last year's citrus campaign yielded very positive results for MAF RODA, with new operational facilities and a portfolio of major clients in the sector that attest to its reliability and leadership. Thanks to its experience and technological approach, the company has provided advanced post-harvest automation solutions that have ensured efficiency, quality, and traceability throughout the campaign.

The close and continuous service throughout the season has reinforced the security and confidence of producers, ensuring that each piece of fruit arrives at its final destination in optimal condition. Quality systems such as G7-Viotec and the latest generation SMART Citrus software with AI, as well as the Pomone IV calibrator and intelligent packaging robots such as FAST PACK, have made it possible to optimize resources, increase productivity, and maintain the highest quality standards.

With these solid results, MAF RODA is fully prepared to tackle the new citrus season, consolidating its commitment to innovation, customization, and service guarantees. The company continues to apply its engineering and specialized knowledge to offer solutions tailored to each producer, ensuring efficiency, sustainability, and excellence at every stage of the process.

New Smart Citrus software based 100% on AI

SMART Citrus, the 100% AI-based solution with self-adjustment and automation capabilities, is the driving force behind G7-Viotec, developed to optimize and facilitate the work of operators in processing plants.

The software stands out for its intuitive interface, which allows for easy operation even for operators with little technical experience. Unlike conventional systems, which required complex manual adjustments, this platform allows production lines to automatically adapt to different sorting parameters, reducing setup times and minimizing potential human error.

Smart packaging

The new FAST PACK packaging robot, designed for citrus fruits, incorporates state-of-the-art technology and advanced robotics systems that optimize the packaging process. The line integrates a fully automated system that fits the citrus fruit into trays, allowing each fruit to be oriented according to customer specifications, ensuring a uniform and high-quality presentation. This is a high-capacity robotic solution that automates one of the most complex stages of the process, offering an efficient response to labor shortages and significantly reducing operating costs on the packaging line.

Automation: a strategic factor in the citrus sector

Automation has become an essential pillar for an increasingly demanding and global citrus industry. With a clear focus on technology and efficiency, MAF RODA positions itself as a strategic partner, offering automated solutions tailored to the needs of each producer.

Its flexible approach allows for the optimization of resources, improved efficiency, and guaranteed maximum quality in every fruit. Beyond the supply of equipment, MAF RODA provides technical advice and ongoing maintenance, reaffirming its commitment to innovation, sustainability, and technological transformation in the agri-food sector.
