CONTINUOUS CROP INFEED SOLUTION

Tong even flow, also known as rise and fall hoppers, are the ideal crop infeed solution to ensure a continuous and controlled feed of crop onto any vegetable handling line, whether you are grading potatoes, washing carrots or packing onions.

Manufactured in mild or stainless steel specification, Tong Even Flows are suitable for handling washed or unwashed crop and can be specified to meet the highest food safety requirements when operating within a high-care vegetable processing application.

EVEN PRESENTATION OF CROP FOR PROCESSING

Popularly used to receive crop from a box or bag tipper, or to accumulate crop prior to ensuring a steady feed of crop onto an optical sorting unit, sponge dryer, packing machine or grading unit, the even flow is versatile in it’s use across a wide variety of vegetables and in many crop infeed situations.

The even flow’s conveyor lowers at the feed-on end to form a holding hopper for crop. Featuring a microprocessor-controlled sensor to control the level of the crop within the even flow at any time, when the even flow infeed re-starts the feed of crop, the even flows belt rises to gently and evenly feed crop out of the unloader for onward processing.
