- Typical capacity
- For this class of equipment, throughput commonly ranges from 1 to 3 tonnes per hour, depending on potato size and desired peel quality.
- Power supply
- Units of this type typically require a 3-phase industrial electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz in the UK.
- Construction material
- Components in contact with product are generally constructed from food-grade stainless steel for hygiene and durability.
- Peeling method
- Potato peeling lines commonly utilise abrasive peeling technology, often combined with washing and inspection stages.
- Water consumption
- These lines typically require a continuous water supply for washing and waste removal, with consumption varying based on line configuration and potato condition.
- Footprint
- A complete peeling line will require a significant operational footprint, typically spanning several metres in length and width, depending on the number of stages.
