Potato processing equipment
Besides equipment for vegetable processing, Constructie Bruynooghe also realizes potato processing equipment and processing lines made of stainless steel.
As with carrot processing, we distinguish here between the processing of bulk reception to fresh market (ready for packaging) or from bulk reception to peeling (ready for further processing into frozen or processed products).

After the cleaning and washing process that is similar for both the fresh market and the industry, there is a difference in the processing of the peel.
The method of inspection and calibration is also often different.
In the processing process for the fresh market, potatoes are polished to deliver a peak product,
which the consumer can then further prepare. In industrial processing, the peel is first steamed and then thoroughly peeled,
so that the potatoes are ready for further processing into a ready-to-cook product.
In the further stages of the industrial treatment process, Constructie Bruynooghe also ensures the seamless integration of partner machines.
We custom design a potato processing line depending on budget, harvesting and environmental conditions, hygiene and safety requirements.
In an industrial line, machines for peeling and optical sorting according to customer preference are also included in the design.
