What is the cherry size grader ?
A cherry size grader is a specialized piece of agricultural equipment designed to sort cherries based on their size. This machine plays a crucial role in the post-harvest processing of cherries, helping growers and packers to efficiently categorize their fruit for different markets and uses.
The primary function of a cherry size grader is to separate cherries into uniform size categories. This is important because cherries of similar sizes are typically sold together, as consumers and buyers often prefer consistency in their fruit. Additionally, different sizes may be destined for different purposes - larger cherries might be sold fresh in premium markets, while smaller ones could be used for processing into jams, juices, or other products.

Product's operating principle
- Materials move from the beginning to the end of the chute: the chute is designed with a slope.
- When coffee cherries are fed onto the vibrating screen, fruits smaller than the first tier mesh will fall to the second tier, fruits smaller than the second tier mesh will fall to the third tier. Then they all move towards the output chute assembly in three different directions, pouring into the collection hopper assembly to be moved to each desired position.
