Onions reaching a supermarket or going for export must look clean, with no loose dry scales and a homogeneous size. Our LCC 6000 6T Line brushes, inspects, and sizes onions in continuous 3,000 kg/h flow, delivering them ready for net, bag, or tray packaging.
Four simple, effective modules:
- Receiving Hopper with Conveyor: accepts bulk product and transfers it to brushing in controlled flow.
- Brusher: rotating brushes in gentle contact with the onion — remove loose scales, dust, and handling-detached skin pieces.
- Inspection Conveyor: operators remove split, sprouted, or rotten bulbs before sizing.
- Onion Sizer: output with 6 defined commercial sizes.
Benefits:
- Optimal retail presentation: brushing produces a uniform-looking onion that stands out on shelf.
- Gentle with product: natural-fiber brushes with adjustable pressure — useful layers are not damaged.
- Human control before sizing: the inspection conveyor keeps defects from travelling all the way to the pack.
- Continuous flow: designed to integrate upstream of standard baggers/tray-loaders.
- Mid-high capacity (3,000 kg/h): ideal for regional packers serving domestic retail + partial export.
