Zhiyi Era Shawo Radish Intelligent Sorting System: Making Jinmen Shawo Radish More Competitive in the Market

As a geographical indication product of Tianjin, Shawo radish is renowned both domestically and internationally for its "crispy, sweet, juicy, sweet, spicy and delicious, with plenty of water and no residue". It is exported to Hong Kong, Macao and Southeast Asia all year round. However, the traditional sorting method has become a stumbling block to industrial upgrading - relying solely on manual observation and touch, it is difficult to identify hidden defects such as internal bad cores, wormholes, and lesions, and it is also difficult to unify the grading standards for sugar content, sugar cores, and quality. This often leads to the problem of "good fruits not selling well and bad fruits mixed into high-quality products", seriously affecting the brand image of Shawo radish and the income of growers.

In response to this pain point, Zhiyi Era combines AI technology to customize and develop an intelligent sorting system for Shawo Carrots, with "X-ray penetration detection+AI intelligent recognition" as the core, to create a standardized sorting solution for Shawo Carrots from the field to the tip of the tongue.

1、 Core Technology: Performing "CT" on Carrots to Expose Defects

The system can accurately detect and sort the multidimensional quality of radish, including key indicators such as internal bad core, bran core, moisture, sugar content, and appearance. Among them, through the penetrability of X-ray machines, combined with optoelectronic technology and computer image processing, and combined with a sugar analyzer, the internal structure of radish can be visualized by penetrating the surface layer, clearly identifying internal indicators such as bad cores, bran cores, moisture, and sugar content; The appearance indicators are captured by visible light cameras and recognized by AI models, which can accurately detect color, size, surface defects, and other content. By integrating these detection methods, the system can intelligently sort radishes according to preset standards, which is more accurate, faster, and more stable than manual sorting.

2、 Intelligent process: fully automated, efficiency increased by more than 5 times

(1) Transmission device

Responsible for transporting the carrots to be sorted to the sorting area. The transmission device is designed reasonably to ensure that the radish will not be damaged during transportation.

(2)Collection and detection device

Obtain internal structural data through X-ray and sugar analyzer scanning, and analyze indicators such as broken core, bran core, moisture, and sugar content inside the radish using AI algorithms.

Using high-resolution cameras to capture images of carrots, and analyzing the images through image AI recognition algorithms to identify features such as size, shape, color, and surface defects of carrots, in order to achieve accurate classification.

(3）Sorting execution mechanism

According to the collectionanalyzeAs a result, the sorting execution mechanism sends the radish into different classification areas. The organization operates quickly and accurately, ensuring sorting efficiency.

(4）Control system

Responsible for the operation control and data processing of the entire sorting system. Through advanced control algorithms, achieve automated operation and intelligent management of the system.

3、 Value realization: from "selling carrots" to "selling high-quality products"

reduce lossesAccurately identify defective fruits to avoid misjudging good fruits、'Mixing bad fruits with high-quality products';

Increase added valueAccording to the classification of "premium fruit, high-quality fruit, and ordinary fruit",improvePremium fruit priceAt the same time, it is also possibleMeet the standardization needs of supermarkets and e-commerce platforms;

Strengthen brandStandardized product appearance and quality enhance the brand recognition of Shawo radish and strengthen consumer trust.

Shawo Radish as TianjinThe market demand for agricultural business cards has been increasing year by year, but "standardization" and "branding" are the key to its further development. Smart Era Shawo Carrot IntelligentsortingThe system not only solves the pain points of traditional sorting, but also helps growers, cooperatives, and processing enterprises achieve an upgrade from "yield to quality" and from selling products to selling brands.
