HOLARAS AS10 ONION TOPPER

It is primarily designed for removing the foliage (tops or haulms) from harvested bulb onions, preparing them for storage or further processing. Key Features: Application: Removal of onion tops (onion topper). It is also suitable for handling shallots and flower bulbs. Operating Principle: The machine uses rapidly rotating knives to cut off the onion tops. The onions pass over vibrating sieves, and a strong airflow sucks the tops downwards, where the knives cut them. Capacity: Typically 5-10 tons/hour. Number of Knives: 2 pieces. Number of Sieves: 2 pieces. The vibrating sieves are easily interchangeable and are available for different onion sizes (6-40 mm). Enclosed System (Optional): An enclosed system version (AS-10 ENC) exists for better airflow and dust reduction, which can also be equipped with a waste conveyor belt. Vibration Motors: Specially designed vibration motors ensure the floating movement of the onions on the sieves. Knife Speed (Optional): Some models may have adjustable knife speed for optimal cutting of different sized onions. Safety: The machines are equipped with the necessary safety regulations. Dimensions (indicative, may vary per model): Length: approx. 272-281 cm Width: approx. 131-165 cm Height: approx. 128-220 cm Other Information: With HOLARAS machines, the tops are not torn off but cut by fast-rotating knives, thus avoiding damage to the onions. An optional feeding hopper or pre-sorter can be ordered for the machine to ensure a continuous flow of produce. By changing the vibrating sieves, the machine can also be made suitable for different sizes and types of onions (e.g., set onions, ware onions, shallots).
