Appication of GY-4 Fruit Durometer

The Lanetech GY-4 Series Fruit Penetrometer (digital fruit hardness tester) is specifically designed for inspecting the firmness of bananas, apples, pears, strawberries, grapes, and other fruits. By accurately evaluating fruit hardness and maturity, this device supports breeding, storage, export, transportation, processing, and quality control applications. Widely adopted by fruit research departments, fruit companies, farms, agricultural colleges, and quality assurance labs, the GY-4 digital durometer helps optimize harvest timing, reduce post-harvest losses, and ensure consistent fruit quality for domestic and international markets.



Features of GY-4 Fruit Durometer

  • Lanetech GY-4 Digital Fruit Hardness Tester – High accuracy and wide resolution range for precise fruit firmness measurement.

  • Peak value hold function – Captures maximum hardness readings during testing; automatic peak value clearance for consecutive tests.

  • Pre‑set limit alarms – User‑definable maximum and minimum limits for quick go/no‑go assessment.

  • Automatic low‑battery power‑off – Conserves energy and protects device integrity.

  • Three selectable measurement units – Supports various industry standards (e.g., N, kg, lb).

  • 150% overload protection (full range) – Prevents sensor damage from excessive force.

  • Local gravity acceleration reset – Enables location‑based calibration for consistent results.

  • LCD screen with inductive backlight – Clear readings in low‑light conditions; energy‑efficient display.

  • Large onboard memory – Stores up to 896 data points for extended testing sessions.

  • Motorized test stand control output – Direct signal output to drive Lanetech motorized test stands for automated testing.

  • RS-232C to USB port – Easy connection to PCs, printers, and data loggers.

  • Synchronous analysis software compatible – Enables real‑time graph generation, data storage, printing, and in‑depth analysis on a computer。  This fruit hardness tester can connect to PC to get synchronous graph too, and could store, print, analysis etc.
