Sorting of fruits is performed primarily by visual inspection using size as a particular quality attribute. Many industries with capability of large-scale buying and selling of fruits & vegetables, are using image processing technology for sorting purpose. But the image processing system of sorting requires very highly developed technology of image capturing and processing which is very costly and not suitable for small traders. The proposed sorting system in this paper offers an economical solution for such level of automated fruit sorting practices. By dealing with an automated material handling system, it aims in classifying the fruits by weight which is coming on the conveyor, by moving the fruits near its respective packing place. There by the monotonous work done by human is eliminated, achieving accuracy and speed in the work. Weight of fruit is used as a design metric to sort the fruits in food processing. And for sorting using weight as a parameter the load cell arrangement is ideal. This sorting system presents a precise, reliable, consistent and quantitative sorting technique for fruit sorting based on weight of the fruits. Automated sorting system not only speeds up the time of the process but also minimize error
