Potatoes

Washer & Drying Table Combination

A barrel washer and a 20-roller drying table on one machine, so every wet transition drains into one tank and is managed in one place. Built with 3 or 4 metre barrels at 1200 or 1500 mm diameter.

Barrel Washer

A stainless steel barrel washer in lengths from 3 to 9 metres and 1200 or 1500 mm diameters, sized to your volume and to how dirty the crop comes in.

Pre-Soak Tank

Up to 125 tons (250,000 lb) per hour

Soaks product ahead of the washer so dirt loosens, stones drop and floating debris comes off early, at up to 125 tons per hour. It also holds product so the wash line gets an even feed.

De-Stoner

Takes stones and clods out at the start of the line, standalone or mounted on an HJV washer. 85% of the standalone unit's components move onto an HJV wash system if you add one later.

Root Crop Polisher (HJV 1430)

The HJV 1430 polishes carrots, potatoes and other root vegetables with segmented brush rollers, and its bearing cartridges come out without special tools.

Brush Table

A rotating brush bed that cleans potatoes, seed potatoes and onions gently, with rollers that lift out from the top for cleaning.

Water Recirculation System (WRS)

Cleans and reuses wash water on stationary and mobile lines, so less goes to discharge ponds. It uses HJV Typhoon, a biodegradable flocculant that settles fine clay particles.

Dirt-Sep

A set-and-run separator for intake lines: top removal plus two dirt separation modules, built to move between crops without readjusting.

Xtractor

A cleaning table with on-demand roller gap and height control and its own electric drive on every shaft, so you can change settings on the go or call up a saved recipe.

Soak Tank Trailer

A trailer-mounted soak tank that takes floating debris, clods and loose dirt out of the crop post-harvest, for when debris removal matters more than wash quality.

Mobile Wash Trailer

A complete wash system on a trailer, with water recirculation, so you can wash potatoes at the storage instead of trucking them to a fixed wash plant.

CX Coil Expander

Expanding coil rollers with a gap adjustable from 12.5 mm (1/2") to 89 mm (3.5"), for taking dirt out in wet conditions or pulling a size profile out of the flow. Widths from 900 to 2400 mm.

Drying Table

Closed-cell foam sponge rollers, kept under air pressure, dry product evenly. The sponges resist taking on water, so they keep drying and last longer.

Split Grader

Up to 160 tons per hour

A mobile pre-storage cleaner that takes rocks, clods, golf balls and debris out before potatoes go into storage, at up to 160 tons per hour with a TOMRA 3A optical sorter.

Cyber Sort

Up to 100 tons per hour

Cleans unwashed potatoes coming out of storage by sending the whole flow through a TOMRA 3A optical sorter, at up to 100 tons per hour.

Roller Inspection Table

Blue-background inspection tables with LED lighting and E-stops, in widths from 450 to 1500 mm, for the manual final check.

Grader Module

A screen grader for potatoes, onions, beets and bulbs, with triple short-throw agitators and a push-and-pull drive, in widths from 900 to 2400 mm and three lengths.

Exeter Engineering's AI-based quality grader for potatoes. It classifies defects such as discoloration, bruising and size inconsistencies in real time.

Exeter Oculus

Exeter Engineering's compact three-drop potato sorter, made in the USA, with rollers that show the cameras every side of each potato. Four sizes: 1000, 1300, 2000 and 2400.

Conveyors & Elevators

Stainless conveyors and elevators with endless food-grade PVC belts, soft drop zones at transitions, and same-diameter shafts that need no machining to replace.

Storage Bins

High-capacity bins that keep trucks moving, and multi-compartment bins for pre-sized product so packing equipment runs at a steady speed.

Even Flow Hopper

A loading hopper that meters product onto the line at a steady rate. Fill it with a loader over the end or sides, or with a dipping-end elevator.

Multi-Bin System

A row of compartment bins that holds pre-sized product and feeds your packing equipment, so baggers run steadily instead of waiting on the grader.

Box Tipper

A hydraulic, full stainless box tipper that tips up to 160 degrees for complete emptying, with perimeter fencing and light bars. Manual or fully automated.
