For another thing, clients prefer the parallel roller brush cleaning machine for delicate fruit cleaning and polishing. For instance, it’s suitable for fruits and vegetables with round or oval shapes and relatively hard surfaces, lemons, oranges, citrus, passion fruit, tomatoes, і kiwifruit. Крім того, this washer gently cleans field dirt without damaging the skin, then polishes the surface for better retail appearance.

Крім того, some factories use these two brush cleaning equipment for seafood such as shellfish or fish scales. Both machine types support continuous washing procedures and support integration into full processing systems. Anyway, both 2 types support continuous fresh produce washing and connect with full food processing systems.

2 Shapes Customization of Fruit And Vegetable Brush Washers

For modern food factories to clean fruits or vegetables with uneven shapes and different skin strengths, our company designs two shapes of fruit and vegetable brush washers. These two cleaning machines apply different methods, strong and gentle.

U-Type Washing with Strong Peeling Power

Conventional brush roller washing machine features 6-10 rollers in a U-shape or cylinder. Specifically, it suits for fruits and vegetables with thick skins, stubborn deposits, or complex shapes. And wavy or spiral bristles increase friction for better cleaning efficiency.
- Powerful Peeling:
  This method uses dense, hard brushes with polypropylene or high-strength nylon bristles (0.3–0.5 mm). Крім того, the U-shaped structure ensures root vegetables fully contact bristles during tumbling, achieving efficient peeling.
- Deep Sludge Removal:
  For lotus roots with deep grooves or irregularly ginger, you can select spiral roller, allowing for 360-degree cleaning dirt from the grooves.
Крім того, brush roller speed increases to 150-250 r/min. Some models can add variable-frequency control, adjusting speed in real time according to soiling levels.
Parallel Design for Skin Protection

Another type of roller cleaning equipment is in a straight, parallel pattern. It’s mainly suitable for fruits and vegetables with delicate surfaces or round shape.
- Low Damage: This method uses a low-density, soft brushes. The bristles are mainly food-grade nylon or PBT elastic filaments (0.15–0.25 mm). The ends of the bristles are rounded to avoid scratching the surface.
- Large Contact Area: The parallel structure increases the contact area between the brushes and irregular objects, improving cleaning efficiency.
- Wide Adaptability: Додатково, we offers a flexibly adjustable brush roller spacing, adapting to different material sizes and preventing small fruits and vegetables from being squeezed or stuck during cleaning.
- Multiple Functions: This washer includes different processes from simple cleaning and mud removal to polishing and waxing.
During cleaning, brush speed is at 80-120 rpm. With gentle spray water, it removes mud and pesticide residues, preserving produce integrity and freshness.

How Much investment to Buy A Brush Roller Cleaning Machine?

Our common roller brush washer usually costs about 1,200-5,200 доларів США per set, з 4 models and 700-2,000 кг/год capacity. The exact price depends on equipment size, roller quantity, and optional configuration. Таким чином, it suits small vegetable workshops, medium root vegetable factories, and frozen food plants. Customers with small food production lines can choose shorter brush rollers and lower power to control cost and keep an affordable budget.

On the other hand, the parallel roller brush washer price usually stays between 4,500-5,000 доларів США for sale. Because this structure uses more SUS304 stainless steel and longer parallel rollers. Проте, this machine supports high-end fruit polishing and value-added fresh produce presentation. тому, many fruit packing houses consider it a cost-effective investment.

When customers request quotation, our company studies raw materials, capacity requirements, power supply, water quality, and plant layout. Then, our team recommends suitable models and options.

Годування: Ordinary brush roller cleaning machines vertically feed fruits or root veges into the tank in batches or continuously, while parallel washers continuously lay the round fruits onto the brush roller.
Core process: Vertical brush cleaner make fruits and vegetables washing and peeling within a U-shaped rollers. By contrast, another type washer pushes material to move forward on the parallel rollers.
прання step: There are nozzles above the brush roller continuously spray clean water to simultaneously removing mud and washing fresh produce surface.
Sewage discharge: Sediments, peels, and mud flow through the bottom outlets, while wastewater collects in the drainage tank.
Outlet: The clean fruits or vegetables then move to the outlet section by flap discharge or pushing system, connecting easily with drying, сортування, or slicing machinery.
