Leafy vegetable desander BO

The Sormac leafy vegetable desander BO is specially designed to remove small stones, clay granules and sand particles from lamb’s lettuce, for example.

The product is transported by a belt in the machine. The integrated air-injection system fully submerges the produce in water. The turbulence loosens the sand etc. from the product.

The sand sinks to the bottom. Because of the conical design of the washer, the particles collect centrally.

From this point, spirals transport the small stones and sand particles from the washbasin into a collection tank.

The tank is equipped with a large manhole opening, meaning it is easily accessible for maintenance and cleaning.

The water and product are separated on the outfeed side. The outfeed converyor is equipped with a spray bar to rinse the produce with clean water before it goes to the first washing stage.
