Tong Peal Engineering will be hosting an exclusive open week later this month, to give growers and packers the opportunity to see its latest technically advanced machinery in action.
Taking place between 22-26 July, the UK’s leading designer and manufacturer of grading and handling equipment for the vegetable industry will be showcasing its new crop polishing system – the TPS-Pro Polisher – alongside other recent additions to its 2013 range.
Designed with the latest technological advances in mind, the TPS-Pro Polisher features an electric direct drive inside every shaft, self-contained stainless steel motors within their own oil baths and waterproof sealed bearings. These key features virtually remove the need for equipment maintenance or lubrication, providing exceptional labour efficiency.
The polisher is also fitted with a unique drive system with gold-plated contact points for optimum longevity and efficiency. Accordingly, internally sealed drum motors and a unique design eliminates rust or corrosion within the system, as well as facilitating fast and easy brush exchange.
Manufactured in a 14 brush model featuring a 3m long x 800mm barrel, as well as an 18 brush model featuring a 3m long x 1050mm barrel, the TPS-Pro polisher provides outputs of between 15-30 tonnes per hour and can be integrated into static lines, or specified as a stand alone model.
Tong Peal TPS Pro Polisher“We’re really looking forward to hosting an open week dedicated to our latest range of 2013 equipment,” commented Charlie Rich, Tong Peal’s Export Sales Manager.
“The TPS-Pro is our most effective independent polishing system ever, featuring the latest technological advancements and energy efficient processes. The unit runs exceptionally efficiently and quietly, with excellent build quality, hard-wearing fabrication and a two year warranty offering virtually maintenance free vegetable polishing – perfect for multiple crop varieties.”
“Our factory doors are always open, but after receiving such a positive response from customers who have seen the TPS Pro Polisher already, we thought that we’d dedicate an entire week to showcase the polisher and give people the opportunity to come and meet the team at our factory in Spilsby whilst they’re here!
As well as seeing the TPS-Pro Polisher, visitors will also have the chance to take a tour around the factory and talk informally to the Tong Peal team about the latest technologies in crop handling, as well as the company’s innovative range of handling and sorting equipment.
