Frequently Asked Questions

How do I prevent damage to fragile fruits like strawberries or blueberries during the washing process?
For delicate produce, we recommend HSYL's Air Bubble Washing Machine. Instead of using mechanical brushes that might bruise soft skins, this machine injects air into the water to create vigorous bubbles. These bubbles gently tumble the fruit to dislodge dust and pesticide residues without physical impact, ensuring the product remains intact and market-ready.
What is the difference between "Soft Brush" and "Hard Brush" rollers for root vegetables?
Soft brush rollers (made of nylon) are used for washing and polishing; they remove surface soil from potatoes, carrots, or ginger without damaging the skin. Hard brush rollers (often with grit) are used for peeling; they friction-peel the skin off root vegetables efficiently. HSYL peelers allow you to choose or interchange these rollers based on whether you are selling fresh washed vegetables or processed ready-to-cook ingredients.
Can a single vegetable cutter handle slicing, dicing, and shredding?
Yes, our industrial vegetable cutters feature a quick-change blade system. By swapping the cutter head (which takes about 2-3 minutes), a single machine can switch between slicing (e.g., cucumber rings), dicing (e.g., carrot cubes), and shredding (e.g., julienne strips). This versatility helps factories save floor space and equipment costs.
Why is blanching necessary before freezing or drying vegetables?
Blanching is a critical pre-treatment step that uses hot water or steam to deactivate natural enzymes in the vegetables. If skipped, enzymes will cause the vegetables to lose their bright color, turn mushy, and develop off-flavors during storage. HSYL blanchers also help reduce microbial load, ensuring food safety for frozen or dehydrated products.
How does the HSYL water recycling system work to save costs?
Our large-scale washing lines come equipped with an integrated filtration tank. The water used in the washing stage is circulated through a filter screen to trap leaves, sand, and debris. The clean water is then pumped back into the main tank. This recycling loop can reduce fresh water consumption by up to 60-70%, significantly lowering operational costs.
How do you prevent cut fruits (like apples or potatoes) from turning brown (oxidizing)?
We integrate an "Anti-Oxidation" or "Color Protection" module immediately after the cutting station. This is usually a spray system or a dip tank containing a solution (typically Citric Acid or Vitamin C) that coats the cut surfaces. This prevents oxidation and browning, extending the shelf life of fresh-cut produce.
What is the capacity range of your fruit and vegetable processing lines?
HSYL offers scalable solutions ranging from small batch lines (500kg/hour) to large-scale continuous industrial lines (5,000kg/hour or more). We customize the width of the conveyor belts and the length of the washing/drying tanks to match your specific throughput requirements and factory space.
Do I need a drying machine after washing vegetables?
It depends on your packaging method. If you are vacuum packing or tray sealing, the product must be dry to prevent spoilage. HSYL uses "Air Knife" dryers (high-velocity ambient air) to blow off surface water effectively. For leafy greens, we may recommend a centrifugal dewatering machine (spin dryer) to remove moisture without damaging the leaves.
Can your machines handle different sizes of fruits for grading/sorting?
Yes, we manufacture varying types of grading machines. For round items (like oranges or tomatoes), we use Roller Graders or Drum Graders that sort by diameter. For weight-specific requirements, we offer Electronic Weight Graders. This ensures that your final packaged products are uniform in size, commanding a higher market price.
Are the conveyor belts food-grade and easy to clean?
Absolutely. We use modular plastic belts or continuous PU (Polyurethane) belts that are FDA-approved. HSYL designs these conveyors with a "quick-release" tension mechanism, allowing your cleaning crew to easily lift or remove the belt to clean the stainless steel frame underneath, preventing bacterial buildup.
