Tummers Food Processing Solutions and Polysense have announced a strategic partnership to transform potato processing through intelligent, AI-powered solutions. The collaboration addresses the industry's growing demand for data-driven process optimization by integrating advanced vision systems directly into processing equipment.
The first major outcome of this partnership is the integration of Polysense's advanced Qualify vision system into Tummers' industry-leading Delta Roller Spreader. This combination creates an intelligent processing solution that analyzes potato characteristics in real-time and optimizes processing decisions automatically.
By continuously monitoring product quality and variability, the integrated system provides data that can guide downstream processing decisions. For example, this information could be used to adjust peeling times or optimize cutting parameters based on product variations. The result is improved processing efficiency, reduced waste, and more consistent yields.
The Polysense Qualify technology also serves as a cornerstone for Tummers Connect, the company's comprehensive digital platform designed to help customers monitor, control, and optimize their entire operations from a single interface.
“We believe in the power of data and AI in industrial environments, This partnership with Polysense allows us to turn that vision into practical solutions.”
Dennis Rademakers, Lead R&D Engineer at Tummers.
The technology addresses a critical industry challenge:input variability. By intelligently controlling potato bunkers and predicting optimal yield scenarios, processors can dramatically reduce waste and protect profit margins.
“Together, we're helping manufacturers regain control over input variability Because today, too many potato processors are throwing their profit margins away.”
Yarne de Munck, CEO at Polysense.
