Application and Working Principle
The wet hopper is designed for handling peeled potatoes and processed products such as:
- potato wedges
- potato strips (7×7 mm, 14×14 mm)
The product is fed via a belt conveyor into the hopper, where a water environment is maintained to:
prevent oxidation
• preserve natural color
• extend shelf life and maintain product appearance
From the hopper, the product is conveyed to a weighing unit, where accurate weighing and packaging into customer containers (bags) takes place.
Key Benefits
- Preservation of product quality through a controlled wet environment
• Full automation of conveying and weighing processes
• High productivity — up to 1200 kg/h
• Reduced labor costs and human error
• Hygienic design — stainless steel AISI 304
• Easy integration into existing processing lines
• Simple cleaning and maintenance
This makes the system an excellent choice for companies seeking food processing automation equipment for potatoes and other wet products.
