Agritechnica 2025 marked a pivotal moment for Raytec Vision with the official launch of Ingenuity 60-Channels, our latest breakthrough in optical sorting technology. The response from industry professionals, partners, and growers exceeded expectations, confirming that Ingenuity is set to redefine efficiency and product quality in potato processing.
At the heart of this success is Raytec’s commitment to innovation. Ingenuity 60-Channels was engineered to handle one of the greatest challenges in the sector: achieving highly accurate defect detection on both washed and — for the first time at this scale — unwashed potatoes.
This dual capability is made possible by Raytec’s advanced multi-spectral, multi-camera architecture, designed to analyze each tuber from multiple angles and wavelengths. The new unwashed-potato technology generated significant excitement at Agritechnica, demonstrating that even products covered in soil can be inspected with precision previously thought unattainable. The system distinguishes soil clods, stones, green potatoes, and other foreign materials while maintaining high throughput — a combination that directly translates into reduced waste and improved line profitability.
For washed potatoes, the 60-channel configuration takes performance to the next level by ensuring uniform quality selection at industrial speed. Beyond its technical excellence, Ingenuity 60-Channels embodies Raytec’s broader vision: empowering processors with intelligent, reliable, and sustainable technologies that elevate product quality while optimizing resources.
Agritechnica 2025 was more than a launch — it was a moment of validation. The enthusiasm around Ingenuity confirms that Raytec continues to lead the way in vision-based inspection systems, setting new benchmarks for the potato industry and beyond.
Here’s to a future shaped by innovation, precision, and the relentless pursuit of excellence.
