A Qassim date factory has implemented cutting-edge automated sorting technology to classify its fruit based on size, color, and quality. The facility can process up to four tons of dates per hour, which is significantly higher than traditional methods. According to Al Arabiya, the factory utilizes this advanced system to sort dates with exceptional precision—by size, color, and purity—while automatically discarding damaged fruits.
CEO Ahmed Al-Rabdi revealed that the plant is home to more than 60,000 palm trees and over 15 distinct date varieties. He explained that the factory operates high-capacity sorting lines and recently imported a larger machine with over 12 output channels to handle all types of dates. Al-Rabdi emphasized that modern technology has greatly reduced the need for manual labor, resulting in increased productivity and superior quality as the machines streamline numerous processes.
