KRONEN automated avocado processing line

Friday, 14 June, 2024 | Supplied by: KRONEN


KRONEN has developed a robotics solution for an automated avocado processing line. The line features a solution for the robot-based processing of avocados that can be used to halve, pit and peel avocados both gently and efficiently.

Suitable for cold temperature ranges, the robot can be easily cleaned and decontaminated, thus enabling maximum hygiene in the processing facility. It can be used flexibly for any length of time and processes a fixed, calculable amount of fruit during operation. The line processes the delicate avocados to produce a visually appealing product that is claimed to be comparable to the result achieved when processing avocados by hand.

Depending on the desired capacity, the system can be equipped with one to three robots. It features integrated tools that were developed especially for processing delicate avocados. The solution produces a maximised, constant yield that makes full use of the entire avocado flesh.

With a cutting machine such as KRONEN’s GS 10-2, avocados can be optionally further processed by cutting them into chunks or slices.

The system features integrated Stäubli robots with specially treated surfaces for optimal cleaning. The system is equipped with remote maintenance technology, allowing users to make the most of direct support from the KRONEN service team if required.

Up to 1000 avocados/h can be processed with three robots. Furthermore, a wide variety of additions can also be introduced to further extend the line. The system can also be adapted for processing various types of fruit in the middle segment as needed.
