In the rapidly developing lemon industry, every step, from picking in the orchard to market distribution, tests the technical prowess and operational efficiency of processing companies. Pesticide residues, uneven fruit gloss, and chaotic size grading not only lower the value of lemons but also risk missing out on high-end market opportunities. The JCSORT lemon washing, waxing, and sizing line, centered on "intelligent technology + precision processing," provides a one-stop solution for lemon processing companies, completely breaking through traditional processing bottlenecks and ensuring every lemon reaches market in optimal condition.

The JCSORT lemon washing, waxing, and sizing line is more than just a simple combination of individual pieces of equipment. Rather, it's an intelligent production line integrating deep cleaning, uniform waxing, and precise sorting. Every step has been meticulously refined to meet the practical needs of lemon processing.

1. Deep Cleaning: Removing Pesticide Residues and Impurities to Protect Food Safety

After harvesting, lemons are prone to contamination from dirt, pesticide residue, and insect eggs. Traditional manual cleaning is not only inefficient but also fails to meet food safety standards. The JCSORT cleaning system utilizes a three-stage purification process: First, a high-pressure spray rinse removes surface dirt. Next, the lemons enter a bubble cleaning tank, where the vibration of dense bubbles removes stubborn impurities. Finally, ultraviolet light sterilization effectively eliminates harmful microorganisms on the surface. The entire process requires no human intervention, achieving a cleaning rate of over 99%. Utilizing food-grade stainless steel, the system prevents secondary contamination, ensuring that every lemon meets national food safety standards.

2. Uniform Waxing: Enhances Fruit Gloss and Extends Shelf Life

A high-quality gloss is key to increasing the price premium of lemons. Traditional manual waxing is prone to uneven thickness and wax flaking. The JCSORT waxing system, equipped with "atomized spraying + constant temperature curing" technology, adjusts the wax concentration and spray volume according to the lemon variety, ensuring a uniform wax coating across the fruit, forming a transparent, breathable protective film. This protective film not only gives the lemons a naturally bright luster but also reduces water loss and pathogen intrusion, extending their shelf life by over 30%, helping businesses expand their sales reach and reduce transportation losses.

3. Precision Sorting: Grading by size to meet market demand

Different consumption scenarios have specific requirements for lemon size—the catering industry prefers medium-sized lemons, juice processing companies require uniform raw material specifications, and high-end supermarkets favor large lemons. The JCSORT size sorting system utilizes "high-precision photoelectric detection + intelligent sorting" technology. A camera captures data such as lemon diameter and circumference in real time, and automatically sorts the lemons to different outlets based on preset grading standards. The system achieves a grading accuracy of ±1mm, increasing efficiency 5-8 times compared to manual sorting. It also completely eliminates human error, ensuring consistent product specifications for each batch and easily meeting the customized needs of individual customers.
