Cyclone destoner for removing stones and clods
Ensure optimal pre-cleaning by removing stones and clods from potatoes efficiently, safeguarding your production line from potential damage and maintaining high processing quality.

Removes Stones and Clods from Potatoes
The Cyclone Destoner from Kiremko is engineered to elevate the pre-processing stage for potato product manufacturers, tackling the challenge of stone and clod removal with precision and efficiency. Utilizing centrifugal force, the Cyclone Destoner accurately separates heavy debris from potatoes in a continuous, high-speed operation, ensuring a clean input for downstream processing. Ideal for applications such as French fries, pellet snacks, and hash browns, it supports the production of high-quality end-products like crinkle-cut fries and kettle-cooked chips.
With the capacity to handle large volumes of potatoes efficiently, this equipment seamlessly integrates into existing production lines, enhancing cleaning and purification processes. Manufactured with durable stainless steel and protective polyurethane wear shields, the Cyclone Destoner is designed for longevity and resistance to abrasive materials. The unit’s PLC-controlled system facilitates easy operation and integration with other equipment, while also reducing energy consumption by optimizing flow rates. Kiremko provides engineering support for customization, ensuring compatibility with your specific plant requirements.
