A NEW horizontal debris remover has been developed by Haith, introducing a new level of cleaning efficiency to the company’s range.
Designed to remove loose soil, stones and haulm before washing or grading, the machine features a heavy-duty rubber belt with soft pintle fingers that carry the potatoes along to a powered counter-rotating roller which gently transfers the crop off the side via an integral discharge chute.
Debris falls through the pintles to the base of the belt and is carried under the roller to the waste chute at the end of the machine. The gap between the roller and the belt is adjustable to control the size of debris removed.
The machine will make its debut at British Potato 2025 later this month.
