Legende HF Series AI Optical Sorting System

Fresh vegetable appearance directly determines market value, but traditional sorting methods are facing growing challenges. Manual picking is heavily dependent on workers' experience, attention, and physical condition. After prolonged operation, visual fatigue leads to a significant increase in missed defect rates — damaged leaves, discoloration, insect damage, and other defective products easily "slip through" the human eye. 

The Legende HF Series is an intelligent, vision-based sorting system tailored for fresh vegetables industrial sorting and quality control. Leveraging high-resolution RGB (HR-RGB) imaging technology powered by proprietary AI algorithms, the system achieves all-weather and standardized detection and removal of color variations, surface defects, and foreign materials, ensuring sorting quality is no longer constrained by human physiological limits, improving finished-product consistency, and providing a more efficient, reliable, and quantifiable solution for fresh vegetables sorting.

AI-driven surface defect recognition algorithms — trained on real-world production data using deep learning, with sorting precision refined continuously — help processors enhance product quality, increase throughput, reduce labor costs, and maintain a competitive edge in the market.
