Washing auger

Description

The DTS potato washing auger combines washing and product elevation in one compact machine. It is designed to remove soil from unpeeled potatoes and residual skin from peeled potatoes. As the product moves through the machine, the specially designed auger gently tumbles the potatoes while water spray nozzles provide thorough, even cleaning. For more intensive washing, removable product tumblers can be fitted to the auger flights. An integrated DTS rotary separator removes solids from the recirculating wash water, while fresh water is used for the final rinse.

• One machine, two functions: By washing and elevating the product in a single process, the auger saves valuable floor space and eliminates the need for separate equipment.
• Easy to clean and maintain: The robust design ensures reliable operation with minimal maintenance. With only two bearing points and a fully enclosed housing with access hatches, the machine is easy to inspect and clean.
• Integrated rotary separator: An optional integrated rotary separator removes solids from the process water, creating a closed-loop system that recirculates filtered water during washing and reduces fresh-water consumption.
