Purpose:
The machine has been designed for the purpose of washing root vegetables and potatoes, with simultaneous separation of stone and dirt.
Specification:
Compact design and inclusion of a stone separator and a washer within a single machine, with large drum dimensions, provide the user with high efficiency of the system, with simultaneous achievement of perfect effects of washing. Application of a stone separator within the machine’s feed, besides separation of stones and dirt, guarantees increased efficiency of the system, comparable to a washer the drum of which is 20% larger. Another advantage provided by using a water-based stone separator is seen in minimization of the damage imposed on the raw material, as it is transferred directly into water.
A self-cleaning function from the mud thanks to the scraping conveyor placed under the drum which collects and transports it out of the machine during washing process – a significant reducing of water consumption sewage emission. The sensor system applied controls the set water level.
The drum features a pipe-less sprinkler of original design, which eliminates foliage accumulation.
The machine is operated automatically, all processes are controlled by a controller. Using bar conveyors makes it possible for the raw vegetables and waste to be initially dried.
Fully enclosed structure of the machine ensures highest level of safety for the staff. Opening covers provide perfect access to the most important elements of the machine. The revolution speed of the drum and rate at which the conveyor is operated is adjusted via an inverter. Stone conveyor speed is regulated with a variator.
Operating principle
The raw material is transferred directly to the main chamber of the stone separator, from where, thanks to the directional stream of water, it is then moved towards the drum chamber, where it is being washed. At the same time, stones and waste are transferred onto the waste conveyor. The washing process in the barrel is carried out in submersed setting, with additional water freshly sprayed. Once the raw material is washed, through an adjustable door, it is transferred to a push-bar conveyor, over which a running water sprinkler is placed. The scraping conveyor under the drum continuously carries out the mud from the bottom.
