Carrot baton machine
Cuts sticks at a capacity of 60 carrots per minute with specified length and cross section sizes. Different sizes are available.
Operating principle
The semi-automatic carrot baton machine type WSM cuts batons in length and cross section sizes according to customer’s specification.
The machine is very easy to operate. Carrots are manually fed into the receiving holes in the turret wheel. The carrot is aligned for topping and slicing by an alignment plate behind the turret wheel.
The turret wheel rotates at one hole every second, each hole containing one carrot. The carrot is topped, tailed and sliced into the set length. In the next step the carrot is pressed through the grid to give a carrot baton of the desired cross section size.
The turret wheel is available in different hole sizes and section sizes. The indexing holes can be 40 mm (1,57"), 50 mm (2") or 60 mm (2,36") in diameter, depending on the grade of carrots being used. The wheel sections are dependent on the required length of the baton. Wheels for 40, 50, 60 or 75 mm (1,57" / 2" / 2,36" / 3") are available.
Usually for carrot batons a 7.5 x 7.5 mm (0,3" x 0,3") or 10 x 10 mm (0,4" x 0,4") grid is used.
Various other options are available at request.
