STvega F1800 Root Vegetable Washing and Cleaning Machine

Description

The functionality of the machine is determined by the installed type of working shafts. Soft brush shafts are designed mainly for delicate washing, hard brush shafts are designed for cleaning certain types of root crops, and the combined version combines washing and mechanical cleaning in one technological cycle.

How the equipment works:

Raw materials are loaded into the working bath of the machine, after which water is continuously supplied over the surface of the product. Depending on the chosen design, the products are processed by soft, hard or combined rotating shafts and simultaneously moving them along the working area.

During processing, the product comes into contact with the working surface of the shafts, which washes away dirt and, if necessary, removes the surface layer of the skin. The cycle time and rotation speed of the shafts can be adjusted according to the type of product and the desired processing result.

At the end of the cycle, the operator opens the lid of the working bath, and the cleaned or washed products are discharged through the discharge chute into the prepared container or to the next stage of the technological line. Waste water is discharged through the drain pipe.

What ensures the efficiency of the machine:

• Adjusting the speed of rotation of the shafts using a frequency converter allows you to adapt the intensity of processing to a specific type of raw material.
• The remote control unit is located outside the work area, which provides convenient access for the operator and additional protection of electrical components from moisture.
• The timer function allows you to set the duration of the duty cycle without the need for constant monitoring of the operator.
• A work bath with the ability to completely drain waste water simplifies the sanitization of equipment and maintaining the cleanliness of the work area.
• The wheelbase allows you to move the machine within the production room and conveniently change its location.
• The SUS 304 stainless steel design ensures the resistance of the equipment to moisture and meets the requirements of food production.

Who is STvega F1800 suitable for?

STvega F1800 is designed for large food industry enterprises, agricultural complexes and vegetable processing workshops. The equipment is designed to work as part of automatic lines or as a separate unit for high-performance cleaning of raw materials. Thanks to the use of SUS 304 stainless steel, the machine meets the requirements of food hygiene and safety, withstanding long-term operation in humid environments.

This model is suitable for businesses that need to process large volumes of root crops with minimal time. The presence of a remote control panel and adjustable feet allows you to conveniently integrate the equipment into the existing rooms, ensuring the protection of electronics from moisture and stability of the structure during heavy loading. The soft start system and the ability to adjust the speed of rotation of the shafts allow you to adapt the machine to the specific needs of the workshop.

The equipment will be useful for manufacturers who are focused on pre-sale preparation of vegetables for retail chains or subsequent deep processing. The professional design of the components, including Japanese and Taiwanese components, ensures stable operation of the machine for many years, which makes it a justified choice for a constant production cycle.

What can be recycled on STvega F1800

The STvega F1800 machine is designed for washing and cleaning a wide range of root crops. It demonstrates high efficiency in the processing of potatoes, carrots and beets. Also, the equipment is suitable for cleaning ginger, Jerusalem artichoke, celery root and other similar products. The ability to install shafts with soft or hard bristles, as well as corundum spraying, allows you to perform both gentle washing and intensive peeling of the skin.

The technological process involves the removal of contaminants and the top layer of the product by mechanical friction on the working shafts. The U-shaped working chamber forces the products to rotate constantly, ensuring uniform processing of the fruit from all sides. Built-in nozzles provide constant washing of raw materials, which helps to remove dirt and prevents clogging of working elements with sandpaper.

Thanks to flexible settings, the machine supports working with products of varying degrees of contamination and skin density. The use of combined shafts allows you to simultaneously remove coarse dirt with an abrasive and clean the product with brushes. This allows you to work even with vegetables grown on difficult soils, such as black soil.

Frequently asked questions about STvega F1800

What is the average productivity of equipment per hour of operation?

Productivity depends on the type of raw materials and their condition: for carrots it is up to 1000 kg/h, for potatoes and beets – from 700 to 800 kg/h. These indicators are influenced by the shelf life of vegetables and the degree of their contamination.

How long do slave shafts last in a car?

The resource of corundum shafts is 4-5 months of intensive work. Stiff bristles last from 2 to 2.5 years. For uniform wear of the pile and prolongation of the service life, it is necessary to use the reverse function provided on the control panel.

What are the requirements for the drain system when working with potatoes?

When processing potatoes, it is recommended to equip a separate outlet to a septic tank or your own sewer. A large amount of starch in the waste can quickly clog common sewer pipes, resulting in significant costs for cleaning them.

How is the remote control protected from moisture?

The machine is equipped with a remote control unit, which is recommended to be mounted on the wall. The buttons on the panel are silicone coated to protect the contacts from water and wet hands of the operator, preventing short circuits.
