The Sormac knife peelers MS are suitable for continuous peeling of pre-washed or pre-peeled root products, like potatoes, red beet, celery root etc. The produce to be peeled is conveyed by a transport auger through a horizontal, rotating drum. The inside of this drum is equipped with a large number of knives. The dwell time and peeling effect can be controlled by varying the RPM of the drum and the speed of the transport auger. The special shape of the drum and the way the knives are positioned effectively avoids the produce from being flat peeled. The peeling waste is separated from the peeled product immediately and ejected by the rotating drum. The waste can be collected for removal in a crate or waste transporter via the waste funnel at the base of the machine.

The produce diameter should be between 30 and 180 mm and the vegetables must be free of stones

The machine consists of a stable housing in a frame, the peeling drum and a transport auger. In line with the patented Sormac system, the drum is suspended on both sides in 3 V-belts, and is driven by just 2 motors. The spray nozzles on the outer circumference of the transport auger allow wet peeling if required. There is a large cleaning hatch on two sides of the drum, so the inside of the drum and the conveying auger can be inspected and cleaned easily. The efficient drive and peeling methods means the energy consumption is very low

Water consumption: 0 - 1.2 m3/hr
Length of the drum: 1,000 mm
