Fresh carrots for retail or export need three perfectly integrated stages: washing, size classification, and packing. Our ZC 8000 Line completes the entire journey in a continuous 6,000-to-8,000 kg/h flow — capacity designed for large packers and cooperatives.
11 integrated machines, from bin to final pack:
- Receiving and Pre-cleaning Screen: separates dry soil and fragments before washing, reducing the dirt load entering the water.
- Rotary Washer: drum with water spray that removes soil adhered to the root.
- Roller Discard Unit: rollers that drop out-of-size carrots and broken pieces through the gaps.
- Inspection Conveyor: operators discard roots with serious defects before investing resources in sizing.
- Lower Discard Conveyor: collects everything separated by the discard unit and the inspection stage and takes it off the line.
- Bagging Conveyor for Second Sorting: final commercial sorting station, with bagging on the same conveyor.
- Accumulation Disc: rotary buffer that absorbs flow peaks and keeps the sizing rate steady.
- Elevator: transfers the accumulated flow up to the sizer inlet.
- Sizer: separates carrots by size according to the defined commercial matrix.
- Distribution Conveyor: routes each grade to its packing station.
- Final Bagging Conveyor: output to the final pack — bag, net, tray, or case.
Benefits:
- High capacity: 6,000–8,000 kg/h for large packers and cooperatives.
- Sanitary design: product-contact surfaces in AISI 304 stainless steel.
- Packaging flexibility: outlet adapts to final packaging — bag, net, tray, or case.
