The KW-QG500 Commercial Fruit and Vegetable Top and Tail Cutting Machine is designed to remove the stem and root ends of various produce with minimal waste. This semi-automatic machine requires manual placement of each item onto the conveyor, after which the machine automatically detects the size and position of the product to perform precise cuts.
It features dual discharge outlets—one for the processed product and another for waste—to streamline sorting and further processing. Built with a stainless steel frame and smart sensing system, this machine ensures clean cuts and minimal trimming loss, preserving more usable product.
Though commonly used for onions, this machine is also suitable for fruits like pomegranates, lemons, and oranges, making it an ideal solution for diversified fruit and vegetable processing.
