Compac's BDM 1000 series is a 6 character digital display. It is used to keep your packing staff informed about what fruit size and grade are coming out at each outlet. The large size of the characters makes it easy for your packing staff to read, even from across a room. The BDMs do away with the time-worn 'sticky notes', blackboard and chalk or taped pieces of paper that operators traditionally used to update packers working around the sorter.

BDM's mounted on a Compac Sorter
BDMs are available in single-sided and double-sided models. The double-sided models are excellent for machines where tray filling is utilized and trays are introduced on one side of the machine and fruit packed on to the trays on the opposite side. With BDM displays, you'll reduce errors and take out any guesswork your packing staff have regarding the size and grade of fruit they are packing. Your packing staff are updated immediately when the sorter operator makes a change on the sorter. If you have more than one size/grade of fruit coming to an individual outlet the BDM text will alternate every few seconds to show each size/grade combination. These units are particularly useful where you may use tray fillers or demand feed belts for apples, stone fruit, kiwifruit, citrus, potatoes, onions, etc. Additionally, you can send sizer operator defined messages to all your packers such as break time or alerts for specific fruit conditions*.
Compac's BDMs can be fitted to any Compac machine (running current generation electronics and current release software)**.
"Apart from the mess and mistake factor, having a manual system meant that people had to go round and change the size and grade information at each outlet whenever they made a change on the sorter. The potential for mistakes was significant. The BDM's significantly reduce the potential for mistakes, particularly when many changes are made per day or where multiple sizes and grades may be coming out at each outlet. The BDM's displays are instantly up-dated with new size and grade information when changes are made to the Compac software by the sizer operator."

Fitting times for BDMs to existing machines depends on the number required and configuration of the machine.
