Odenberg introduces Sentinel Optical Sorter Line

Odenberg, a leader in optical sorting and peeling solutions for the potato sector, has launched its latest optical sorter range, the ‘Sentinel.

The Sentinel is a customer led 'designed for purpose’ machine to sit in a range led by the acclaimed Titan and joining an already highly successful line up.

The new sorter has been specifically designed to meet the needs of a customer where the functionality &power of the Titan is not required. It is the ideal efficiency, quality &cost reduction tool for growers, packers &processors where capacity, gross defect and foreign object sort are critical. In addition to potatoes, target markets are green beans, carrot &tomatoes sorting.

The Sentinel is available in 1000mm / 40” and 1500mm/60” wide in feed belt models, with 7"touch screen, top mounted color &NIR LED vision system, intelligent finger ejection system and of course Odenberg's renowned reliability &low ownership costs. As a potato sorter it can handle up to 50,000kg / 110,000lbs per hour.

‘The new addition is significant as it widens the range of sorter we can offer our customers from relatively simple pre grade machines to some of the most advanced quality &food safety sorters on the market. Customers have a wide range of options to find a machine which works for them and their business’. commented Sean Slevin, Odenbergs Marketing Manager.

The first Sentinel was shipped to the US in July, and is operating to the great satisfaction of the customer, reducing his labour &upping his capacity.

‘The Sentinel has been very effective, immediately boosting productivity, lowering our costs and releasing flexibility to make us more competitive’.
