Description Roller sorter
The roller sorter has been developed for sorting tuber and bulb crops such as potatoes, onions, flower bulbs and similar products at high capacity. The machine processes product flows of up to approximately 50 tonnes per hour without slowing down the process, ensuring a stable flow within the processing line. The sorting quality is comparable to a sieve sorting machine and has a deviation of approximately 4 to 5 percent. This way the roller sorter combines high capacity with precise fraction separation.
Fuctioning of the Roller Sorter
The Jansen & Heuning roller sorter separates tuber crops precisely into two fractions. The sorting size is infinitely adjustable between 28 and 60 mm, and the angle of inclination can be easily adjusted. This allows you to match capacity and accuracy exactly to your requirements.
The uniform rotation of the rollers ensures a smooth, flowing product movement without shocks or jolts. This makes the machine particularly gentle on the product and keeps the noise level low. A clever detail: each successive roller rotates slightly faster than the previous one. As a result, a tuber that fits exactly between the rollers never gets stuck, but is always worked back up and transported further.

The accuracy of this type of sorting is comparable with a normal flat screen sorting machine.

Separation of all (agricultural) bulb products in two fractions with high capacity.
