The self-cleaning Terra-Siv is specifically designed to rapidly extract large volumes of loose soil and debris over a very short distance. Designed to either bolt directly onto the intake of any of our second-generation Evolution Separators or used as a stand-alone pre-cleaner.
The main driver for this design is to assist customers dealing with high soil percentages in their crops. Most growers of overwintered carrots and parsnips already use our highly successful Evolution Separator. The Terra-Siv will turbocharge these separators by removing high levels of loose soil and smaller debris.

Added value for the user (in commercial terms, user-friendliness ...)
The Terra-Siv will turbocharge these separators by removing high levels of loose soil and smaller debris. By eliminating this debris beforehand, the separator can operate more effectively, by focusing on larger particles and leaf matter. The versatility of the system provides equal benefits for a wide variety of other crops, such as potatoes, onions, celeriac, and beets. By utilizing the lateral gap adjustment of the two star shafts, it is also possible to remove undersized crop.
Added value for the further sustainability and professionalization of the potato sector.
The design is focused on low maintenance and tool-free adjustment. Direct drive electric motor/gearboxes and a very short compact design. In difficult wet conditions the machine is virtually maintainance free and self cleaning. This allows reliable operation and reduces wear and contamination of the product line components thereafter such as washers and graders by removing soil and waste early in the production line.
