Book excerpt: Excerpt from Apple Handling Methods and Equipment in Pacific Northwest Packing and Storage Houses This report is one of a series designed to guide operators of apple and other fruit packing and storage houses in reducing labor required for various physical handling and warehouse operations. It outlines some of the methods by which labor can be made more productive. Although it evaluates methods and equipment used for handling boxes of apples in Pacific Northwest apple houses and appraises some of the methods and equipment developed during the research in that area, the results should be applicable to commercial fruit packing and storage houses in all areas.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handling Empty Apple Boxes in Pacific Northwest Packing and Storage Houses Millions of boxes and other containers are used each year to market the Nation's apple crop. As apples for the fresh market seldom are handled in bulk, some of these boxes are used to handle the fruit all the way from the orchard through the packinghouse and on through the terminal market. These boxes, as well as cartons and baskets, must be handled many times before they are packed with apples and transported to consuming areas.

This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Preliminary Report on Apple-Packing Houses in the Northwest Owing to unfavorable conditions that developed after the season opened, some of the detailed experiments contemplated in the origi nal plan could not be carried out. The scarcity of labor and the shortage of cars for moving the fruit to market resulted in a con gested condition in all of the packing houses visited and consider able confusion in some of them. It became necessary, therefore, to limit the work largely to the making of observations and con ducting such tests as would not interfere in any way with the pack ing-house operations. A floor plan showing the arrangement of the equipment was made of each of the more important houses and facilities for storing packed and unpacked fruit were noted. Sizing machines were tested for accuracy and efficiency and for their effect on the physical condition of the fruit. Methods of handling the fruit through every operation from the receiving door to the car were studied, and the efficiency of the different methods compared. Individual or ranch packing houses and operations were included in the investigations, so that the efficiency and economy of the two systems might be com pared.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Apple Packing and Storage Houses: Layout and Design Adoption of improved methods and equipment in apple packing and storage houses often requires that new facilities be constructed, or that old plants be remodeled. This report presents guides for the layout and design of apple packing and storage houses. These guides are developed around the use of newer and more efficient methods and equipment. The layouts provide for a direct flow of the fruit from the storage room, through packing opera tions, and back to the storage room or to the ship ping area, as well as optimum storage conditions. Layouts are developed for three packing rooms and three storage rooms. All are based on the use of lift trucks for handling boxes of fruit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Apple Sorting Methods and Equipment One of the most costly phases of work connected with packing and warehousing apples is that of sort ing or grading the fruit. At this point the color, appearance, and quality of the pack are evaluated. Each season in Washington State, where this research was conducted, enough apples to fill approximately 40 million boxes pass over the sorting tables of more than 250 packing plants. At each of these tables 6 to 12 people are employed, depending on the type of table and size of packing operation. Operators of packing plants could realize substantial savings if they could reduce the number of workers required to perform this operation, or increase the output per worker. During the past few years the Pacific Northwest apple industry has experienced changes in plant layout, handling equipment, and methods, as well as a change in the type of pack. In the future, emphasis will be placed on more precise grading of apples, not only in the Pacific Northwest but in other major apple producing areas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cooling Apples in Pallet Boxes In the Pacific Northwest alone, large sums of money are spent annually for pallet boxes and related equipment. This report should furnish guidance to the manufacturer and purchaser alike on the requirements for obtaining the best cooling qualities from a pallet box. Cooling studies are being continued, and information on these will be published as soon as the data become available. The results reported are based upon cooling studies conducted in four apple cold-storage houses. There has been an increasing interest in the cooling rate of apples stored in pallet boxes. It is the purpose of this report to show the general requirements for proper cooling of apples in pallet boxes.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handling and Storage of Apples in Pallet Boxes Apple producers and storage and packinghouse operators have shown great interest in pallet boxes in the past 2 years. Pallet boxes are not an innovation for the handling and storage of agricultural products. In 1944, studies were made in Colorado on their use in connection with potatoes. One of the largest early users of pallet boxes is located in Clear Lake, Iowa. This operator's entire crop of potatoes and onions are conditioned, stored, and handled in pallet boxes. Results of studies made there indicate that pallet boxes can reduce labor requirements and invest ment in facilities, and maintain the quality of the product. The pallet box method of handling is rapidly spreading into use in packing and storage houses for other agricultural products.

Download or read book Bruising of Pacific Northwest Apples During Shipment and Distribution to Retail Stores in Texas Classic Reprint written by Edwin Smith and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bruising of Pacific Northwest Apples During Shipment and Distribution to Retail Stores in Texas From two years studies it is concluded that with boxes having pads and tier separators there will be more damage done in transit and distribution when the pack is heavy than when it is light. Apples in boxes receiving regular commercial handling between shipping point cold storage and the Dallas retail stores had about twice as nany severe bruises. As apples in boxes handled with care. There were more severe bruises per hundred fruits in the bottom layer apples of the boxes against the car floor racks than in the bottom of boxes in the top layer of the load9 both of which received regular commercial handling in loading. Where boxes were not thrown into position in carloading nor otherwise handled with impact9 the amount of severe bruising in the bottom layers of boxes was not greatly different from other parts of the load. This indicates that excessive bruising in the bottom layer was caused by the heavy impacts of boxes during loading. The bruising of apples in tray-pack cartons loaded cross-wise of the car was not markedly different from those loaded lengthwise. As the packages had little shifting in transit the conclusion that crosswise loading of cartons is as satisfactory as lengthwise in tight loads. It seems preferable that cartons be loaded lengthwise of the car9 but where it is necessary to do cross-wise loading strict attention should be given to tight loading to avoid slackness and the rocking of the stacks.
