User-friendly and gentle spinning PLUS optimal hygiene

The KS-7 PLUS is the standard model of the KRONEN vegetable and lettuce spin-dryers. It spin-dries a wide range of products from lettuce to cut vegetables and fruit and right through to canned products, pickled food products or caviar efficiently and reliably with seven spinning speeds.  
The KS-7 PLUS vegetable and lettuce spin-dryer can be integrated into processing lines or used as a stand-alone machine. As a component of processing lines, it is positioned downstream of the washing process, after which the washed products are filled into the spin baskets and manually placed into the KS-7 PLUS. 

The robust, open design enables

  • ergonomic operation due to the low lift-in height
  • Optimal hygiene: no dirt traps due to screws etc. in the spinning area 
  • Easy water drainage for an optimal spin-drying result

The spin-dryer is suitable for processing lettuce, herbs, cut fruit and vegetables and many other products. It also reduces the dripping-off times of canned products such as mushrooms and pickled vegetables or defrosted products. Other food products such as prawns, caviar (substitute) or even sesame seeds can also be spun dry with the spin-dryer. Mesh inserts for the spin baskets are optionally available for fine-particle products. Depending on the product, the machine achieves high capacities and a low residual moisture content of the products.

KRONEN benefits

User-friendly even when frequent product changes are necessary

The ergonomic lift-in height and the lid locking mechanism, which prevents the centrifuge from being opened during the spin cycle, make the spin-dryers particularly user-friendly. The powerful and low-noise motor ensures low wear and a long service life. All in all, the machine is very easy to maintain.
