Instantánea de Key Technology
When good French fries go bad, Key Technology can sort out the problem. The company makes food and material processing automation equipment under brand names such as Manta, Tegra, and Optyx. Its electro-optical automated inspection, sorting, and product preparation systems can be used to evaluate fresh fruits and vegetables, beans, potato chips, and other snacks. Items can be sorted by color, size, and shape to identify defective or inconsistent products for removal. The company also makes conveyor and sorting systems for the tobacco, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and coffee industries. Key Technology gets about half of its sales outside the US.
