Carrot handling
The carrot handling process starts with carrot cleaning with Tong’s market leading separator, the EasyClean separator, which effectively removes any stem and leaf matter in the carrot crop from the harvesting process. In this video the EasyClean is working in light soil conditions but offers exceptional soil and stem removal in heavier soil conditions too.
Carrot washing is completed with a Tong carrot barrel washer with an integrated close-coupled destoner at the infeed to effectively remove stones from the carrot crop prior to washing. minimizing damage to equipment and the carrot crop.
Carrot sizing takes place with a Tong lift roller sizer, which effectively sizes carrots by diameter.
