Spiral washer for cut vegetables

Optimize washing efficiency for cut and leafy vegetables, both floating and sinking, with adjustable water flow control and integrated recirculation.

Washes and Rinses Cut Vegetables Efficiently

The Spiral Washer SW-80 from Sormac is designed for efficient washing and rinsing of both floating and sinking cut vegetables. Featuring a spiral motion, this washer ensures thorough and gentle cleaning, preserving the quality of delicate produce like leafy greens and chopped vegetables. With a processing capacity of up to 3,000 kg per hour, it caters to large-scale food processors and vegetable processing companies. The SW-80 employs a sophisticated recirculation system, where water is both reused and refreshed via adjustable valves for optimal washing performance. Integrating seamlessly into production lines, it offers options like a UV-C unit for bacterial control and a cooling coil for temperature management. Constructed from durable stainless steel and plastic, it stands resilient against corrosion and wear. The manual control panel allows precise adjustments, enhancing operational efficiency without sacrificing product quality. Options such as an outfeed belt and flycatcher allow for further customization to suit specific production needs.
