A Perfect Whirlpool
The tranditional way of washing fruit, vegetables, meat, fish and frozen foods is both time consuming and usually does not guarantee the removal of all unwated insects and dirt.

The problem of washing large quantities without damaging the structure and quality of vegetables, salads, etc, is easily solved with out ATIR range of machines. We have carefully researched the various problems and have developed a system which uses an adjustable whirl or vortex with constant clear water. The water penetrates the product in depth and gets rid of all the impurities even from the most irregular of vegetables like spinach.

We offer five models of ATIR to meet hte varying demands and customer requirements. We have a machine for each size of  undertaking from 100 to above 1000 people. Our specialised technology and engineering ensures good results within a cycle time of 2 to 3 minutes.

Washing in depth
An essential feature of Atir vegetable washers is their exclusive washing principle : it is not just a water spraying operation but a continuous water whirling motion, which can be regulated as to time, length and intensity, with the products immersed into the water. in fact, only this way can even the most 'difficult' vegetables be thoroughly cleaned without suffering damage.
Always in clean water
The special washing system developed by Nilma allows rinsing in water that is always clean. The rotative water motion pushes the dirt and soil towards the sides and bottom of the drum and gradually dispatches them into the drain area. Fresh water comes in only from the upper part of the drum, which is dirt free.

In addition, clean water flows in on a continuous rate from the mains inlet. This solution eliminates the need for filters - which retain only substantial dirt particles and, consequently, filters need cleaning after use.

Total automation
No manual intervention is required to carry out vegetable washing with Atir machines.

The opetator need only select the type of rinsing according to the procuct to be handled. The Atir will operate automatically and with a uniformity that will ensure a very satisfactory result.

Simplicity of use
Atir machines are easy to operate:

A - loading the machine

B - pre-setting the washing time and speed

C - removing the washed product from the drum.

In tilting models, discharging the product into the suitable trolley.

Labour saving
How much? A lot! when one considers the time spent in washing vegetables in the sink.

And even more, if one considers the automatic cycle time of Atir washing at 3 minutes - time which can be better utilized doing other jobs.

Electricity
Even the most powerful model - Atir I tilting - requires only 1.8 Kw power from the mains, and needs no more than 3 minutes even for the most difficult product.
Maintenance
Atir machines are designed - like all Nilma machines - for durability and an excellent performance.

They are built to last rquiring little or no maintenance and can be easily cleaned and are designed so that maintenance costs will be negligible.

Versatility
Because of the exclusive washing system and the method of regulating the flow and time cycle, Atir is ideal to wash a wide range of food : from grapes to spinach, from fresh vegetables to frozen ones, plus poultry, meat and fish, and the maximum length of the washing cycle will be at all times within 3 minutes.
A custom-built line
From the lower requirements of small establishments to the larger centers. The Atir with its five models, offers the appropriate solution, especially when you consider the working efficiency of the machines, their small proportions making it no problem to find a place for one in any kitchen.
