Wyma’s Vege-Polisher™ is a world-leading vegetable polishing system, with over 850 units sold in more than 40 countries since its invention in the 1990s. Using proprietary rotary brush technology pioneered by Wyma, the system is tailored to meet specific polishing requirements, ensuring exceptional performance.
The V2B Vege-Polisher™ features a rotating drum composed of rows of durable nylon brushes. Fresh produce enters via a wide infeed chute, where two water pipes spray fresh or recycled water onto the produce as it moves through the drum. Vegetables are cleaned and polished through gentle contact with the rotating brushes and other produce.
At the outfeed, a smooth chute minimizes drop, ensuring a seamless transition to downstream equipment. The Vege-Polisher™ enhances the appearance of vegetables, helping to produce premium-quality products with greater appeal for retailers, ensuring polished produce meets the highest market standards.
For gentle produce handling when filling bins or bags, Wyma’s Vertical Bin & Bag Filler is an ideal solution.
The system features a De-elevator that lowers and stops just above the bottom of the bin or bag. Once in position, produce feeding begins. Soft fingers on the De-elevator gently guide the produce into the bin or bag, gradually raising to maintain minimal drop distance as the produce level rises.
When the bin or bag is full, the system halts produce feed until a new empty bin or bag is detected. In the dual-head model, the feed conveyor reverses to fill a second bin or bag, ensuring uninterrupted operation.
This efficient, gentle handling technology minimizes damage to produce while maximizing throughput, making it an excellent choice for operations that prioritize product quality and continuous workflow.
Wyma’s Horizontal Debris Remover efficiently eliminates dirt, roots, and other debris from potatoes, ensuring a cleaner product.
The system uses a specialized belt with rubber pintles to separate debris. Potatoes and debris are fed onto the belt, where the powered sweep roller directs the potatoes to the outfeed chute. Meanwhile, debris falls through the pintles to the base of the belt and is transported under the sweep roller to the waste chute at the machine’s end.
The gap between the powered sweep roller and the belt can be adjusted to control the size of debris removed, offering flexibility to suit different operational needs. A weight-balancing mechanism on the sweep roller ensures gentle pressure, preventing debris from becoming lodged in the belt and minimizing wear.
This efficient, adjustable design ensures reliable debris removal, improving produce quality while maintaining gentle handling for potatoes.
With the QualityCrader, you are guaranteed consistent and precise quality control. This advanced machine assesses your product with accuracy throughout the day, ensuring you always have confidence in the quality of your final product. Not only does this lead to lower labor costs, but it also contributes to a more sustainable cultivation and production process.
