The Flo-Grade™ has been developed to be installed with our Flo-Cut™ sizer halver unit or on its own as a stand-alone potato or tuber grader. It has a tapered screw design for gentle grading and transfer of potatoes.
Flo-Grade™ has been designed to meet the end-user's needs with the costs remaining competitive against other comparable technologies.
With retrofit opportunities, the Flo-Grade™ is also a close couple of our Flo-Cut™ auto-halver. Its hygienic and sanitary design throughout eliminates the risk of foreign materials in the process. Due to minimal moving parts, the Flo-Grade™ is both easy to operate and low maintenance with less spare component storage required.
The Flo-Grade™ requires minimal running power and general energy needs, the machine capacity can also be tuned to suit different process requirements.
