Beet crop cleaning machine Elephant

Much like the Rhino Beet Washer, the Cross Elephant Beet Washer is equipped to de-stone, wash & chop beet. This machine was first invented as a HGV towed machine and is capable to by towed at speeds of up to 90 km/h. The on board engine meant no tractor was needed when arriving at the job site. Recent years have seen the development of the tractor pulled Elephant. This is the same machine without the fifth wheel attachment. All Elephant washers have a 1,000 mm wide web which helps with its increased output compared to the Rhinos 650 mm wide web. The Elephant can be used for the dirtiest of beet crops to ensure clean and safe cattle feed and also clean samples for anaerobic digestion. This Washer also has a pre-cleaning feature which helps the water last longer per cycle. The Elephant has the ability to remove 100% of the stones in the beet crop. The water in the Elephant can last a lot longer than most of the beet washing range due to the water cleaning system as the machine works. Drive options include Engine, PTO & Electric. Pre-Clean The precleaning hopper is used to fill the beet washer as well as shake the loose dirt off the Beet. This saves the water from early contamination De-Stone The de-stoning section of the beet washer uses a patented cyclone system to seperate the stones from any root crop. All the stones that get sucked down through the bottom of the cyclone are deposited out of the machine seperate to the beet Wash The wash cylinder tumble cleans the beet while semi-submerged in water. The clay and soil washed off the beet falls through the tumbler and is dropped onto the waste elevator to be deposited along with the stones
