Zhacai was first seen in Fuling, Sichuan, China (now Fuling District, Chongqing) in 1898, and was called "Fuling Pickled Mustard" at that time.

In fact, the term "Zhacai" is a general term for the raw materials and finished products of pickled mustard tuber. Its raw material should be called green cabbage head, and its scientific name is "stem mustard", which is one of the three variants of stem mustard. The other two variants, bamboo mustard and sprout mustard, are also widely planted in Sichuan and Chongqing, commonly known as Bangcai and Ercai respectively.

The mutated green cabbage head has a particularly swollen and fat stem near the ground, which is nearly spherical, so it is called "stem mustard".

Fuling Pickled Mustard, one of the three famous pickled vegetables in the world, ranks first with French pickles and German sweet and sour cabbage. Its unique spicy taste and crisp texture are deeply loved by people. Whether it is breakfast in the morning or a late-night snack, pickled mustard can bring us a touch of fresh taste with its unique flavor.

In the digital production workshop of Chongqing Fuling Zhacai Group Co., Ltd., the only listed company in China's pickled vegetable industry, a series of full-process operations such as screening, cutting, desalting, dehydrating, mixing, bagging, sterilizing, packing and palletizing free workers' hands, which is efficient and environmentally friendly.

Fstsort recently developed a 4 lane electronic grading line for zhacai in Sichuan, China. The advanced system is designed to classify zhacai by weight before further processing, ensuring high accuracy and efficiency of the sorting process. The electronic grader provides significant advantages by replacing the manual labor previously required for sorting. As a result, it saves time, reduces the possibility of human error, and significantly reduces labor costs.

The main advantage of the machine is its ability to process large quantities of zhacai at high speed, with multiple channels working simultaneously and up to four different batches. This greatly speeds up production and increases overall output, contributing to the smooth operation of the entire processing line. In addition, accurate weight classification ensures consistent product quality, which is crucial in the further processing stage of zhacai production.

Fstsort's electronic grading system helps Sichuan customers streamline their production processes by improving efficiency and reducing reliance on manual sorting, ultimately increasing the competitiveness of their processing lines.
