The range of Evolution Separators received a host of upgrades and improvements designed to reduce maintenance and increase performance. Their primary role is to gently separate clod, stones, haulm and loose soil from a range of fruit, vegetables and alliums.

The Evolution Separator works by extracting the debris between 2 contra rotating rollers. The larger roller (spiral roller) has air chambers and is deformable with a spiralling rib. The smaller roller (clod roller) is smooth with a choice of finishes. The clever design of the “spiral rib” entrains the debris down into the valley between the rollers where, if the debris if soft enough is then crushed and ejected down below the separator. Stones will also pass between the rollers as the “spiral roller” readily deforms around the stone so does not allow losses of crop at this time. If larger stones enter the valley and there is not enough deformation in the spiral roller there is a safety mechanism that allows the clod roller to spring away momentarily to allow the stone to pass through.

Every roller is independent and adjustable thanks to its own inverter. This way, it is possible to get a valuable final product even in very wet conditions with 80% of soil and only 20% of potatoes, the Evolution also removes potato tops.

The Evolution cannot work independently and must be integrated into a grading line.

Here at Haith we are proud to say that we are one of the only companies in our sector to be continuously owned by the same family since the company was founded.

It all began when, at 18 years old, Geoff Haith started carrying out repairs for local farmers leading him to realise that there was a need for a more mechanised way of washing and grading root vegetables, with his engineering ability and farming background he designed and manufactured machines for carrot, potato and beetroot handling.

The business, until recently, has been run by Geoff’s five sons and daughter, backed by a great young management team to ensure the continued success of the company, there are over 120 people employed at our factory in the UK and multiple agents around the world promoting the Haith brand globally resulting in a network of excellent installations and satisfied customers worldwide.

Haith has continued to grow in size and strength and has moved on 3 occasions to larger premises with more production area, this has led to the present ultra-modern wholly owned facility with around 6,000 m² of production space on a 6 acre site in South Yorkshire which is equipped with the most up to date CNC laser, waterjet and bending equipment.

Haith have achieved many awards for machine design over the years and are especially proud to have twice been awarded the highest accolade in the UK, The Queen’s Award for Enterprise, both times in the Innovation category, as the only company in the field to hold this prestigious award, Haith’s emphasis on continual innovation and development with a view to keeping the UK vegetable industry at the forefront of technology has been acknowledged.
