Abstract:
An apparatus for the treatment of horticultural products, including in series at least
a first station, configured for supplying a handling and processing line with an indiscriminate mass of horticultural products,
a second station, arranged along the line and configured for the acquisition of information related to at least one parameter of interest of each horticultural product in transit and for the transmission of the information to an electronic control and management unit, and
a third station, arranged along the line and configured for the selective conveyance of each horticultural product in transit toward one of at least two distinct collection stations.
The apparatus includes an electronic vision device, arranged along a chosen point of the line that is between the first station and the second station and is configured to count the number of horticultural products in transit.
