ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for detecting and separating out articles having pits therein after the product has been passed through a pit removing device. The apparatus includes a pair of detector wheels supported to rotate in the same plane. Each of these wheels is power driven. The adjacent peripheries are spaced apart to receive the articles such that the articles having a greater thickness due to the presence of pits are indicated by the separating force on the wheels.
