Apple Tote Dumper & Dump Tank

IMG_074812

Lakewood’s Apple Tote Dumper & Dump Tank was originally designed for use prior to a cider press in a craft cider line. Totes are placed into the rotary dumper tote dumper section located above the dump tank. The dumper is activated by the operator and product is dumped into the tank for an initial wash / cleaning. The product is encouraged to exit the tank via the continuous “water river” style flow, which circulates water from the tank through the ferris wheel style flow control section, and down through the hydro-sieve screen where organic matter and debris is filtered out. The ferris wheel flow control allows the amount of product exiting the dumper to be regulated as needed to match the speed of the equipment further down the line.
