Abstract: A method for recovering a posteriori information about the operation of a plant for automatic classification and sorting of fruit, wherein digital images of a reference piece of fruit previously processed by means of the plant are processed so as to identify its first group of individualizing features, which are then compared with each of a series of second groups of individualizing features each corresponding to a different piece of fruit processed by the plant, in order to establish a match; then, there is extraction from an electronic database of operating information which corresponds to information used or generated by the plant for automatic classification and sorting for classification of the relative processed piece of fruit and/or to information about sorting of the relative piece of fruit processed by the plant for automatic classification and sorting, where in the electronic database the operating information is associated with the second group of individualizing features for which during the compa

Abstract: CT scanner comprising a scanning conveyor (9) mounted on a supporting structure and configured to move an object (3) for CT examination forward through a scanning area (8), an input conveyor (10) configured to convey the object until the scanning chamber (2), and an output conveyor (11) configured to convey an object (3) out of the scanning chamber (2), wherein the input conveyor (10), the scanning conveyor (9) and the output conveyor (11) are configured to move forward the object (3) placed on a supporting unit (19) mechanically detached therefore, and wherein the scanning conveyor (9) is configured to rotate the supporting unit (19) and the object (3) on themselves as they travel through the scanning area (8). The input conveyor (10) and the output conveyor (11) are fitted with shields configured in such a way as to intercept all x-rays emitted from the scanning area (8) which escape from the scanning chamber (2) towards the conveyors.
