This machine peels up to 150 kg of potatoes an hour, taking 60–90 seconds for a 5 kg load. That is plenty for cafés, pizzerias, pubs and small restaurant kitchens.
The benchtop version stands on a worktop or another sturdy surface: it is 530 mm high, 530 mm wide and 530 mm deep. It has no waste filter drawer.
The body is made of AISI 304 stainless steel. A fan-cooled, Italian-made 0.37 kW asynchronous motor drives the disc through a belt.
The potatoes are peeled by the spinning abrasive disc and by the drum walls, which are lined with an abrasive belt. The disc turns at 270 rpm, while water fed through a solenoid valve rinses the peelings away.
The abrasive belt can be replaced without tools, and the abrasive parts are designed to make the machine easy to use, clean and maintain. Look for replacement abrasive discs and abrasive belts in the ‘Potato peeler spare parts’ category.
The control panel has a multifunction digital timer: set the peeling time with the + and − buttons and read it on the display. The electrics are housed in a separate insulated plastic box.
The lid is unbreakable clear plastic, so you can watch the peeling without opening the machine. A safety microswitch stops the machine when the lid is opened.
Connect the water supply with a 3/4″ flexible hose; the water temperature should be 5–20 °C. Waste water drains through a Ø 50 mm side outlet. The machine is built for a three-phase 400 V or a single-phase 230 V supply — select yours under ‘Electrical voltage’.
The machine comes with an abrasive disc, an abrasive belt and a clear plastic lid. A stainless steel lid is available at extra cost — tick it under ‘Options’.
We sell four versions of the 5 kg „Fama Industrie“ peeler: benchtop, on legs, with stand and with high stand. They all peel the same way; what differs is the height, the weight, the drain outlets and whether there is a waste filter drawer.
