1. Leafy Green Vegetable --- Air Bubble Washing Machine
A leafy green vegetable washing machine typically uses an air bubble washing system to clean vegetables gently and efficiently. Using air bubble agitation and water circulation, it cleans delicate leaves while minimizing mechanical damage.
Suitable for: Spinach, lettuce, celery, leafy herbs, berries (strawberries, cherry tomatoes), mangoes, and more.
Air is injected into the water tank, creating rolling bubbles that gently loosen sand, insects, dirt, and surface residues without damaging soft leaves. After bubble washing, a mesh conveyor lifts the vegetables out, and spray nozzles provide a final fresh-water rinse. Heavy impurities settle at the bottom, while floating debris is removed through the overflow outlet.

2. Root Vegetable Washing Machine
We offer two main solutions for root vegetables: brush washing machine and a rotary drum washing machine.
1. Brush washing machine
Uses rotating nylon brush rollers combined with top spray jets. It cleans via mechanical friction, making it dual-functional for both washing and peeling depending on brush hardness.
Ideal for almost all root vegetables, especially irregular or bumpy ones, including potatoes, carrots, sweet potatoes, radishes, beetroots, ginger, yam, and lotus root.
Brush roller washing machine can peel skins with hard brushes. If you are looking for a washing and peeling machine, then choose brush washing machine.
2. Rotary Drum Washing Machine
Uses a rotating mesh drum that tumbles produce in water or under high-pressure spray. It cleans through self-friction and water impact without stripping outer skins, focusing on high-capacity dirt removal.
Suitable for potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, radishes, cassava, beetroots, peanuts, and more.
