Turnkey solutions for the processing and packaging of stone fruit

The MAF RODA Group is a global leader in the development of technology for processing fresh fruits and vegetables. Its extensive experience and unwavering commitment to innovation enable it to provide comprehensive solutions for the entire post-harvest process for stone fruit from product reception and treatment to sizing, grading, packing, boxing, palletizing, and end-of-line operations.

Automatic feeding systems

MAF RODA’s automatic feeding systems are designed to optimize production and line throughput through a continuous, uniform flow, ensuring a high fill rate.

POMONE IV: sizing systems

The Pomone IV sizer is engineered to ensure optimal fruit handling and maximize process efficiency. Featuring ergonomically designed transport carriers and advanced technology, it delivers high-precision weighing and efficient distribution to various outlets.

Furthermore, its operation minimizes impact during handling, preserving the quality of the fruit throughout the entire process.

GLOBALSCAN 7 AI with UV: Quality System

GlobalScan 7 AI is a state-of-the-art electronic sorting system that combines artificial intelligence with high-definition multispectral cameras to perform an external analysis of fruit with exceptional precision. Its advanced technology provides a comprehensive view of each individual piece, capturing high-resolution images and reliably evaluating parameters such as color, diameter, shape, and quality. Furthermore, it detects surface defects with high accuracy, ensuring consistent and optimized product sorting.

The system features new software, StoneFruitQS, which integrates artificial intelligence and was developed to simplify operational management. Its updated, intuitive interface offers a clearer and more precise view of defects, while providing greater autonomy to customize analysis criteria. Thanks to its advanced features, adjustments can be made quickly and easily, streamlining setup and improving performance.

Automated Packing Systems

Our catalog offers automated packing solutions for stone fruit, tailored to the specific needs of each client.

Among the available options, packing robots such as the Fast Pack V2 stand out. This system automatically places fruit into trays (pockets) while ensuring proper orientation, designed to guarantee a continuous flow and rapid, efficient packaging. Its high versatility allows for direct packing into various box formats, easily adapting to different packing requirements and optimizing line productivity.

Additionally, the Line Pack is a high-capacity automated packing system that integrates multiple robots working in a line to maximize productivity. Designed for high-demand operations, it packs fruit into trays with controlled orientation, ensuring a uniform presentation, gentle product handling, and high operational efficiency.

Automatic Palletizing and End-of-Line Systems

End-of-line automation featuring a wide range of solutions—from palletizing and strapping systems to automated guided vehicles (AGVs).

MAF RODA’s range of palletizers includes Cartesian, single-format, layer-based, and robotic models, allowing the process to be tailored to each warehouse’s specific format, operational style, and production volume.

Furthermore, automated guided vehicles (AGV) can be integrated into the end-of-line process to automate the movement of goods handling both full and empty pallets or bins.

In this way, both palletizing and internal logistics are automated, resulting in better control over product flows, complete traceability, and the ability for a single person to oversee end-of-line and dispatch operations.
