SORMAC

Centrifuge

The Sormac centrifuge type HS will remove free standing water from the leaf surface. This leafy vegetable centrifuge is for smaller capacities.

Operating principle

The Sormac HS Centrifuge will remove free standing water from the leaf surface. The basket with product is placed in the centrifuge, the lid closed and the machine will start. After a pre-set time the machine will stop, the lid can be opened, the dewatered product can be removed. The machine can be supplied with the option of an adjustable timer. In the HS-Flex execution the rotation speed is adjustable between 250 and 850 rpm. The centrifugation time can also be set by means of a timer. When the basket turns, the lid is blocked. Because the drum slowly starts and stops, this execution is particularly suitable for sensitive product. In addition, can be chosen for a turning function. In this case the rotation direction changes during the process so that the leaf can be even better dewatered The centrifuge is mounted on 4 adjustable feet that also function as absorbers for the spinning vibration. It is not necessary to fix the centrifuge to the floor.

Vegetable washing machine

The Sormac leafy vegetable washer is suitable for both sliced and diced leaf as well as vegetables. This washer is also suitable for baby leaf.

Operating principle

The Sormac vegetable washer type GWM is designed for both sliced and diced leaf and vegetables. Inside the wash tank the product is intensely washed and due to the turbulent water flow mixed and transported along the length of the wash tank. The product is over-flumed out of the wash tank onto the vibratory de-watering screen (1.000 mm length) (39"), where it is sprayed off with fresh water. It is gently transported forward removing the excess water. All water passing through the de-watering screen is cleaned through a static sieve, mounted on top of the water holding tank directly below the vibratory screen. The filtered water is then re-circulated around the wash. The electrical panel has switches for the water pump as well as the vibratory screen. There are valves mounted in the pipe-work from the pumps. These can adjust the flow through the system dependent on products being washed and retention time required. The water level is automatically controlled by sensors. The GWM washer is completely built in stainless steel and piping is seam welded. Where applicable, connected with hygienic fittings.
