- Typical capacity
- For this class of equipment, batch capacities commonly range from 50kg to 250kg per cycle, depending on the specific peeler it feeds.
- Power supply
- Units of this type typically require a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with varying amperage based on motor size.
- Materials of construction
- Components in contact with produce are typically stainless steel (e.g., 304 grade) for hygiene and corrosion resistance.
- Control system
- Integrated control panels commonly offer timed loading, peeling, and discharge cycles, often with adjustable parameters.
- Water requirements
- Peeling operations typically require a continuous water supply for washing and waste removal during the process.
- Footprint
- The overall footprint will depend on the associated peeler, but in-feed systems are designed to integrate efficiently into existing lines.
- Suitable produce
- This type of system is commonly used for root vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, swede, and turnips.
