Sam Abdelmalek, President and CEO of Systemex Group, today announced the official launch of the EZ-CELL™ Sort-Mate, a robotic sorting cell specifically designed to address the unique challenges of the agri-food industry. Developed in Canada, this cutting-edge solution combines advanced robotics, artificial intelligence, and computer vision to deliver fast, precise, and consistent inspection and sorting of a wide variety of fruits and vegetables.
Unveiled at an exclusive event in Laval, the EZ-CELL™ Sort-Mate is redefining productivity and quality standards in fresh produce sorting and inspection, while also addressing labor shortages and the increasing need for rigorous quality control.
In response to the growing shortage of skilled labor and cost challenges, the EZ-CELL™ Sort-Mate offers:
Automated sorting and inspection based on visual criteria (color, size, defects) and weight
Consistent accuracy powered by artificial intelligence
Rapid return on investment by significantly reducing losses through precise weight targeting per box and maximizing yields
Enhanced food safety, by reducing human handling — a major advantage for both organic and conventional product sorting
Designed to easily integrate into existing operations, the EZ-CELL™ Sort-Mate is fully compatible with Industry 4.0 principles. At Systemex Automation, all projects are managed in-house from design to integration and after-sales service ensuring each client benefits from a single point of contact and support tailored to the specific needs of the agri-food sector.
The June 10 launch brought together key representatives from the agri-food industry, industrial sector, and public sector representatives. Attendees saw the cell in action and engaged with Systemex Automation’s technical experts. The event underscored the growing interest in efficient and sustainable automation solutions.
