In the 15th century, European adventurers raced across the ocean in sailing ships to fight for colonies in pursuit of spices and gold. On the voyage, however, sailors were often attacked by a disease of scurvy that killed thousands.
In 1593, scurvy killed more than 10,000 sailors in England and four out of five sailors in Spain and Portugal. In between these events, a different kind of miracle occurred. In 1593, some French explorers spent the winter in Canada. 110 of them fell ill with scurvy. The local Indians told them to drink water soaked in pine leaves. 1772 to 1775, the British captain Cook led the ship for the second voyage, in the expedition across the Pacific Ocean, lasted 3 years, 118 sailors only died 1, originally, Captain Cook ordered the crew to eat kimchi often, so that the crew from scurvy disaster.
Research on the treatment of scurvy, the earliest started from the British doctor Linde, in the middle of the 18th century, he tried fresh vegetables, fruits and drugs, etc., on the sailors suffering from scurvy medical experiments. On one occasion, when he was treating scurvy among the sailors of the British ship Shipsea V, he divided some of the sailors into six groups and gave them different treatments, such as different foods, drugs and physiotherapy. To their surprise, the patients who took the lemon showed no improvement at all. In contrast, those who took the lemon were treated as if they had been given a "magic elixir".
Later, with the study of lemon, its use is more and more extensive, common to the drink, the table also has, lemon fruit fresh food and processing and appropriate, is available for fresh fruit and food industry raw materials. Lemon also has a title called "the treasure of western food", we eat western food, often with the practice of lemon, it is said to be able to raise fresh to the fish, so it has such a reputation, lemon juice can also be made into soft drinks, lemon tea and condiments, fragrant and delicious.

In China, lemon growers are mostly farmers with low educational level. The lemons are basically purchased by distributors in the village, and the regions with mature conditions are purchased by the government and then sold to distributors. The way structure is single, and the circulation of information resources is not smooth, which easily leads to poor sales of lemons. Now, with the continuous expansion of the scale of e-commerce, the sales volume of lemons on the Internet has maintained a rapid growth in recent years, and lemons have more options for sales channels.
Inspired by the new model of the lemon retail industry, we began to design and produce a production line for cleaning, drying, sorting and packing lemons for the majority of users. The whole process adopts two steps of cleaning. The first step is bubble cleaning in the pool. In this process, the dust on the surface of the fruit will be soaked and part of it will be shed. The fresh water from the spray will further clean the lemons and then go into the sorting device after being blow-dried.
The lemon grading machine on picture can sort 6000kg/hour based on diameter of each fruit. Of course, we provide machines always to meet the requirements from users in different region, for example we can add waxing equipment on this line or auto feeding/feeder on the machine to save manpower. For big packaging house we can connect weighing filler at the end of machine to packaging lemons by weight or quantity.
In a word, we exist to provide convenience for users, constantly pursue innovation, constantly pursue progress, more importantly, we are willing to provide users with the most economical solutions.
