Testimonials
| “Our field representatives have put the Smart Spud into action working with out growers here in Manitoba. We have been using the Smart Spud device for about three weeks and have already seen some improvements in potato handling. In one case our field reps were able to isolate mechanical damage and bruising that was occurring on a new harvester that one of our growers had purchased recently. The operator on the harvester had not used the new machine before and did not have things set right. A lot of damage was being done to the crop. After doing several passes with the smart spud over the equipment the operator could see where the problem was on his machine. After adjusting the equipment and sending the smart spud over the equipment again it was demonstrated that the problem was solved. The improvements made were very evident in the grading sample after delivery. The spud is very easy to use and its ability to record impacts in real time make it a very useful field tool.” Bob Hyra, P.Ag., Director Potato Procurement and Development, MidWest Food Products Inc. |
| ”In-field use of Smart Spud has enabled us to increase our bruise free percentage by 10%” Rick Smull, Western Empires |
| "The Crackless Egg has already proven itself to be an excellent investment. With unprecedented ability to identify problematic areas in our operation, we feel that it will help maximize production at both the barn and grading station level. We are extremely pleased with its user friendly design, and believe it is of enormous economic value to the shell egg industry." Lenita Hanson - HACCP Coordinator/Quality Control Manager, Star Egg Company Ltd, SK |
| "We have been working with 'Smart Bottle' technology from Sensor Wireless Inc. for some time and have found this diagnostic tool very useful in optimizing everyday performance of our glass handling and packaging systems particularly as it relates to the measurement, validation and control of container conveyance, individual package lines speeds and ongoing production efficiencies." Sven Romander, Technical Manager, Swedish Brewers Association |
| "Before the Smart Spud, we made the adjustments that we thought necessary, which were often based on a fair amount of guesswork, and then hoped for the best. The Smart Spud does all this within seconds and eliminates the guessing game. It can help tell you what will cause a bruise and what won't. I'd say it's living up to it's name." Keith McGovern, Farm Divisions Manager, RD Offutt , Fargo, ND |
| "The Produce QC is very easy to use. There are only a few steps to follow before you will be able to use this device: turn on the sensor, put it in the fruit casing and turn on the Wizard program in your Palm. In our application, apple packaging, I have used this product on three of our packing facilities and I am able to quickly find trouble spots that could potentially cause bruising to our produce. Before any new machinery is purchased, the Produce Wizard is used to make absolutely sure that no damage will happen to our product. I would highly recommend that all packing plants purchase and use this fine device" Rick Bailey, Inland-Joseph Fruit Company,Wapato, WA |
| “The Produce QC has helped Stemilt refine its conveying process for fresh apple and cherry packing. We have made several improvements to our existing lines that have helped with our overall production process.” Mike Young – Stemilt Growers |
| “’The Crackless Egg is’ simple to use, gives quick results and has saved us 2% on checks. It paid for itself in a week.” Mark Stratford, HACCP Coordinator Hickman’s Egg Ranch, Glendale, AZ |
| "With so many factors influencing today’s egg production such as genetic pattern, light control, feed quality, bird environment and egg shell quality, industry producers are looking for ways to spot problems that might otherwise not be detected. The Sensor Wireless - Crackless egg pinpoints trouble areas on the conveyor and egg table that can cause checks and cracks to egg product. Identifying and correcting these distress points provides a big pay-off for producers, eliminating as much .5% of checks can easily pay for the “Crackless Egg”. But you can expect anywhere from 2% – 8% improvement." Dan Henslee Sales Manager – PMSI Poultry Management Systems Inc. |
“AgentQC is an exciting proposition for the glass packaging industry easily demonstrating the ability to diagnose filling line performance problems and pointing directly to the root-cause. This is invaluable in conflict resolution and in maintaining good customer relations, and from a technical perspective it can save a great deal of time and expense in quickly and efficiently getting straight to the heart of the problem.”
