Split Grader

CapacityUp 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.

HJV Engineering Split Grader

The Split Grader cleans potatoes on the way into storage. An in-feed elevator and spreader segments feed the Xtractor Cleaning System, whose counter-rotating clod rollers have independent speed control and preset cleaning profiles. The CX Coil Table follows with programmable gap settings and a Speed Clean system.

Then the crop is split: rocks, clods, golf balls and debris are isolated from the lower two-thirds of the crop and run through a TOMRA 3A optical sorter. Because only part of the flow needs the sorter, the line handles up to 160 tons per hour.

The TOMRA 3A, its compressor and the automation panel can come out for service or move to the Cyber Sort chassis, so one sorter can work at harvest and again at shipping. All food-contact components are stainless steel.
