Industrial potato washing line
During industrial potato processing, it is crucial to efficiently clean the potatoes to ensure a high-quality end product. This involves removing stones, heavy soiling, and other impurities while maintaining continuous operation.
Optimize potato cleaning and preparation
The Tummers washing line is a comprehensive solution designed for the potato processing industry. This multi-stage system begins with a destoner that removes heavy soiling and stones using upward water pressure and a conveyor belt system. The subsequent washing stage uses a uniquely shaped spinning drum that keeps the potatoes in constant motion, ensuring they scrub against one another for thorough cleaning. This is followed by a separating stage, where specialized units and pintle belts remove floating matter and any green vegetation from the batch. Finally, the roller dryer uses moisture-absorbing felt rollers to dry the potatoes at high speed without causing damage. Known for its innovative design focused on sustainability, the washing line minimizes raw material consumption, energy use, and water consumption while maintaining low maintenance needs and high efficiency. Offered by Tummers, this system can be delivered and commissioned turnkey at your location, including training for your staff.
