How the Destemmer came to life

A customer asked us whether we could develop a machine for destemming grapes. He had ten people lined up, standing by crates, manually turning the grapes from the bunches. A labour-intensive job. In addition, the repetitive twisting movement, which must be made from the wrist, could increase the risk of RSI. An automated solutio...

Working with sharp knives requires extra safety measures

Our machines don't process fully autonomous (yet). Not that we can't make them, the costs are holding back for the time being. So an operator is needed to load the machine and who can intervene where necessary. That means human contact with the machine. It goes without saying that this must be done safely. ZTI machines comply w...

A smart machine is well worth its money

ROI, or when do you earn back the machine? A calculation that is made by comparing the purchase price and the cost of ownership with the savings on human labor and waste. That of course differs per product and per country. Wages in Germany will undoubtedly be higher than in Mexico. In contrast, a mango will be cheaper in Mexico ...
