Abstract

The food business has typically trailed behind other industries in embracing new technology, and plant automation is no exception. However, fast improvements in computer technology, as well as increased customer and regulatory agency demands for enhanced food quality and safety, have prompted the food sector to contemplate automation of most industrial operations. Though the food business presents numerous specific hurdles to complete automation, the industry has been successful in implementing several automatic operations Electronic sensors, Arduino, computer vision, expert systems, computer integrated manufacturing, flexible manufacturing systems, systems engineering, and other new technological tools have made it possible to integrate many batch operations into an overall manufacturing system design, allowing for on-line and continuous control capability. In this study, we conducted a literature survey and analysed data from automation in food processing for a variety of applications utilizing Arduino, electronic sensors, and other modules. Then we discovered an Arduino based system that works as a Fruit Sorter machine, an Automatic Bottle Filling Machine, a Bean Cooker, a Food Waste Management System, and A Food Cooking Machine, sorting and grading agricultural products, controlling and monitoring atmospheric conditions or the quality of fruits and vegetables during storage, and so on. This work has improved quality control throughout the manufacturing process. Keep your employees safe, and boost your end- to-end traceability to unrivalled heights. Increase productivity and output rates, safeguard your brand from potentially negative product recalls, increase adaptability and flexibility, and improve supply and demand management to reduce waste
