An Onion Peeler Machine for industrial use differs from garlic peelers in its ability to handle larger sizes and thicker skins. For a capacity of 100 kg/hr to 1,000 kg/hr, you can choose between a Batch Type (for small units) or a Continuous Chain-Type (for high-volume factories).

Just like garlic, onion peeling is a Dry Process that uses a high-pressure swirling airflow to remove the skin without damaging the edible part.¹

1. Types of Onion Peeling Systems

2. Technical Specifications (1,000 kg/hr Model)

• Material: Food Grade Stainless Steel (SS 304).
• Peeling Rate: 98% to 99% (Works for all onion sizes).
• Compressed Air Requirement: 0.8–1.0 MPa (Requires a high-volume Air Compressor).
• Air Volume: 2.0 to 3.0  CFM .
• Power: 1.5 kW to 3.0 kW (Electrical) + Compressor load.
• Dimensions: Approximately ⁹2300X 1000X 1800 MM

3. The "Onion Processing Line" Flow

To achieve 1,000 kg/hr efficiently, the peeling machine is often combined with other units:

1. Onion Root & Tail Cutter: Automatically cuts both ends of the onion
2. Elevator: Moves cut onions to the peeler.
3. Onion Peeler: Removes the outer skin using air.
4. Inspection Conveyor: Manual check for any unpeeled spots.
5. Dicer/Slicer: (Optional) If you are making onion paste, rings, or flakes.
