The EasyPack machine is designed to process the weighing and packaging of large crops such as potatoes, onions, turnips, and carrots for medium to small-scale farming operations, in order to overcome challenges caused by labor shortages. This solution is capable of weighing and packing potatoes into a variety of bags with capacities ranging from 20-50 kg (40-110 lbs.), as well as big packs. The proposed research project aims to enhance the functionality and efficiency of the packaging machine by incorporating new features through a modular design approach.
