Accurate tailing of onions and flower bulbs

Holaras - Accurate tailing of onions and flower bulbs

The onion topper is specially designed for trimming onions and bulbs. The high speed and the special shape of the blades create a strong airflow. This airflow sucks the onion tails between the bars of the vibrating screen, after which they are cut off by the sharp blades just under the screen.

All versions are available with closed air circulation and discharge belt. The trimmers are equipped with internal lighting and are supplied as standard with an automatic switch box. The standard passage size of a screen is 28 mm.
