Hash Brown Line
_______________
Formed potato products are produced from mashed or shredded potatoes. This may be your primary process, or it could be a by-product of an existing production line. If the latter is the case, you will obtain more yield from your raw materials because you are also processing remaining potato pieces into an end product.

Cyclone destoner
The cyclone destoner is used to remove stones and clay shells. Gradients and flow rates determine the optimal result. Among the many distinguishing features of the cyclone destoner are a reliable stainless-steel pump, a 5-mm thick plate steel and a polyurethane layer that functions as wear-resistant material. A practical and reliable system that delivers results with no-nonsense technology. The system is available in different capacities, up to 70 tons per hour.
Drum washer
The drum washer will remove soil, clay, and sand from the potatoes through the principle of mutual friction. Steel strips alternately positioned on the surface of the direct driven drum and on either side contain smooth and trim edges. This means that no unevenness will damage the potato. This washer's excellent access means it's easy to maintain. Naturally, the device also reduces your water consumption.

STRATA Invicta
By offering maximum yields at the shortest cycle time, STRATA Invicta® sets a new standard in steam peeling systems. The potatoes are peeled with a blade thinner than any other machine, where only the skin is removed, leaving the cooking rings untouched. Fast, accurate and reliable, the STRATA Invicta® will really steam things up in your potato processing line.
Dry Brush Machine
Dry brush machines are used to remove the potato peel after steam peeling. A rotating brush will make sure that the smooth surface of the peeled potato remains intact. The gear-drive system is strong, durable, wear-proof and automatic to ensure vibration-free, wear-proof and fault-free operation. This will make maintenance episodes extremely short and easy to manage, resulting in minimal cleaning and maintenance intervals.
PeelGuard
PeelGuard is an optical measuring and weighing instrument that detects residual peels and the presence of dark, green or black spots. This machine will ensure optimum monitoring during the final stage of peeling. PeelGuard increases yield of the final product by compensating for changes in peel thickness or peel definition. This way, the results are tailored to your specific needs, therefore making the most of your potatoes.

Retro grader
The retro grader conditions cut and resized potatoes through drying and chilling to help ensure a formable product. Retro gradation is a process that takes place within the potato itself when it is cooled down after boiling or blanching. The Retro Grader will cool down the potato over a longer period of time, which will partly remove the water from the starch, while reinforcing the cell wall. This is an important process in the hash brown line.
