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.

HJV Engineering standalone de-stoner

Stones and clods damage product, wear out machines downstream and settle in flumes. The HJV high-volume de-stoner takes them out at the beginning of the process with a high capacity solids-handling pump and a rubber chevron elevator belt built to carry stone.

Run it standalone if stones and clods are the problem today. When a washer is in your plans, 85% of the standalone de-stoner's components move onto an HJV wash system, so what you buy now keeps working later.

The integral version mounts directly on an HJV washer, or goes into an in-ground flume system so stones never settle in the flume. It shares the washer's water supply, which cuts overall water use, and a simple valve adjustment fine-tunes stone removal.

HJV Engineering pre-soak tank

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.
