Stop selling on claims. Start selling on proof.

Machinery Manufacturers

Your equipment handles fruit gently. Now you can prove it.

Every apple handling equipment manufacturer makes claims about gentle handling and reduced bruising. These claims may be based on customer feedback, visual observation, or comparative trials. None of them are based on measured force data from a calibrated instrument traveling with other fruit through the equipment as real apples do.
‍

RealAppleIQ™ changes that. Run the instrument through your equipment and you have the actual force profile — every impact, every contact event, every drop point, measured across 60 sensors in real time. Load RealBruiseIQ™ susceptibility data and you know exactly which force events would produce an out-of-grade bruise in the specific selected apple variety. That data is yours to use: validate your designs, certify your products, and give your customers measured performance data they can see and verify for themselves.

Best in class equipment?

Use RealAppleIQ™ to benchmark and improve existing designs. Drive excellence in your new equipment designs and installations using real world data. Quickly identify and remedy challenging areas. Rationalize equipment and design decisions with real world measurement data.

Differentiate with data

Share selected measurement runs with your customers. They watch the video, see the forces on the 3D model, and can quickly sign off on agreed requirements. Delivering on agreed metrics builds genuine trust with your customers in a way that no brochure can. Now you are the preferred supplier delivering exactly the equipment your customers crave.

Certify your performance

Generate a measured performance profile for your equipment under defined test conditions. You can confidently claim your equipment performance data not just generic slogans. A documented performance dataset that stands up to scrutiny from customers, distributors, and industry bodies. The standard the industry has been waiting for.

Frequently asked questions

Can we use this to test equipment in our own facility?

Yes. The RealAppleIQ™ system is designed to be portable and can be operated in any environment where apple handling equipment is running. You can run sessions in your own test facility, at a customer site, or in a commercial packhouse.

How do we set up a controlled test?

RealUserIQ™ allows you to define session metadata including equipment type, configuration, and test conditions. Running multiple sessions under defined conditions produces comparable datasets that can be used for certification and design validation purposes.

Can we compare two versions of our equipment directly?

Yes. Run measurement sessions on both configurations under the same conditions and compare the force profiles in RealDataIQ™. Charts, histograms, and the positional force map update instantly. Impact histogram data and graphics can be copied displayed and analyzed in excel or other tools.

Can we share the data with customers?

Yes. Request a sub-license from Real Instruments. The sub-license is created and sent to you for distribution. You send the customer the packaged software installer and license. This enables them to open the shared full measurement data and video on their own device and review it independently. You control which runs they can see and for how long.

Does the data meet industry standards?

The RealSystemIQ™ uses a Newton (N) International System of Units (SI) as its unit of force for both Crush and Impact dynamics. A "RealSystemIQ Client Data Protection" document details how your data is kept secure, it can be found in the resources section. Any other technical questions should be directed to Real Instruments Limited.
