VEGETABLE CLEANING EQUIPMENT
Everett Brothers Engineering manufactures many types of dry and wet cleaning
systems to suit root vegetables and leek production units.
ROOT VEGETABLE CLEANING
Dry soil removal is often considered the best option for initial vegetables
processing particularly were water volumes and dirty water cleaning is
difficult. Many options are available to suit soil types, ranging from web units
through to vibratory separation.
Where water is in good supply a trailer wash out system is one of the best ways
to ensure reduced crop damage and good pre soaking abilities with difficult to
clean soil types. These are available from single stage unload to multiple units
with facility to "tip" differing sized trailers very easily.
Stone separation is vital to ensure minimum crop damage and longevity of washing
equipment. The Cyclone de-stoner is the best way to ensure 100% stone and clod
removal with limited damage. Available from 1.5M to 4M the cyclone can handle
even the largest volumes of crop in the best effective way.
Standard barrel wash systems are available to give a good primary clean with
large flat bed brush washers for volume work.
The Vege Polisher system from Everett Bros Eng has revolutionised the quality of
pre-pack and fresh market produce. Built as a combination of a barrel and a
brush washer it has been proven in reducing the "silvering" effect seen on
carrots, cleaning deep within the eyes on potatoes without giving skin damage
and has considerably increased "recovery rates" on out graded produce. With the
product passing through the suspended barrel with a volume spray bar built
inside there is no soaking effect of the vegetables within dirty water.
