Here are some pictures of the grading line. The yellow belts in the front transport the cull potatoes to the cull bin. The red machine behind them sizes the potatoes in two sizes. Then the potatoes get washed again on the yellow(last) washer.
You can see the people grading in the back. After that the spuds go up this red elevator belt.
Here you can see the culls coming together. The hollow potatoes come out of the green pipe. Then they join the rest of the culls for their last ride into the cullbin.
Here you can see the guys, Reggie and Omke Marten, boxing up selects. In the background you will find Tante Tineke and Darlene grading at the Hagan sizer. Behind Darlene and in the next picture you get a closer look at the X-Ray unit.
This silver box is what it is all about. Not very big, but very expensive. It is amazing how fast it works. And it is very acurate as well.
And here, the finished product rolls into the box. We are currently doing two different sizes of selects with the Hagan sizer, plus the hollows get kicked out at the first station. Station two and three are for select and station four kicks the bigger number one potatoes back into the regular tablestock line. Hope I didn't confuse you too much. Any questions, leave me a comment, and we will get back to you soon.Thanks.
