Monitoring System of Weighing Fruit Grader Based on Labwindows/CVI

Article Preview

Abstract:

For the sake of overcoming the shortcoming of the manual sorting fruit such as inefficiency, inconformity and labor intensity, the weighing fruit grader is designed. The machine is composed of mechanism, computer, data acquisition card, DC PWM system, and pressure sensor. In the system, automatic fruit grading is realized according to the weight measured by pressure sensor. Based on the virtual instrument technology, a humanized human-computer interface is designed by means of Labwindows/CVI. Experiments explain that the precision of the fruits sorting is 96% when the velocity of the transport system is 0.5m/s. The system owns high real-time performance and dependability and it has a good application prospect.
