    Easy to clean

Empower your team to make real-time decisions. Maximize your yield. And keep things simple for your operators.

Built with the processor and operator in mind, the TOMRA 5C combines high-performance lasers, BSI+ sensors, and machine learning analysis to deliver a clear picture of every piece of product and all foreign material.

The TOMRA 5C is a premium optical sorter in the next generation of best-in-class sorters for nuts, dried fruit, and IQF. The TOMRA 5C's upgraded system and industry-leading sensors future-proof your operation's efficiency, safety, and yields through elevated sorting driven by data and more accurate removal of foreign material.

  • Yield improvements of up to 4%
  • Capacity improvements of up to 50% with a small footprint and no product tumbling
  • Removal of allergen cross-contamination objects
  • Outstanding detection performance of fungi and other defects, such as aflatoxins and mycotoxins

We have increased this specific product's production by 20-25% - producing at higher volumes, in less time, and with less labor required.
