Video clip of a large Tong mobile barrel washer for sugar beet, designed for use in washing and destoning sugar beet crop prior to use in anaerobic digestion plants. The mobile washer is mounted on road wheels with a tractor drawbar for easy transport between sites. The sugar beet barrel washer is manufactured with an integrated close-coupled destoner, for the effective removal of stones from crop. Designed using uprated components and heavy duty fabrication to offer growers a robust and reliable washing facility that stands up to the demands of handling sugar beet.
As the beet is fed into the Barrel Washer it is met with a reinforced infeed chute for handling the tough crop at high speeds, enabling a throughput of up to 40 tonnes per hour. Fitted with a heavy duty Auger inside the barrel tank for the removal of soil and a pneumatically operated sluice valve to discharge the dirty water from the tank, the barrel washer effectively washes the sugar beet before it is discharged to the outfeed elevator with a final rinse spray bar. Various sizes and capacities available.
As farmers and growers throughout the UK and Europe increasingly look for an alternative market for their sugar beet crop, Tong Engineering has designed a new range of heavy duty sugar beet handling equipment for efficient washing, de-stoning and loading of the crop prior to its use in Anaerobic Digestion (AD).
