The Sormac Knife Peeler MS range is designed for professional and continuous peeling of pre-cleaned or pre-abraded tuberous products such as potatoes, beetroots and celery. The machines process products with diameters ranging from 30 to 180 mm and offer capacities of up to 2,650 kg/h, depending on the model and configuration.
The MS knife peelers deliver a smooth final result with a hand-peeled appearance. Their unique horizontal drum with precisely positioned knives effectively removes peel, eyes and pressure marks. The machines are also highly suitable for removing black spots after roller or steam peeling, making them useful for achieving a clean and consistent final product in vegetable processing lines.
The patented drum design ensures that the product is peeled across its entire surface while effectively avoiding flat peeling. The patented drum suspension allows the drum to hang freely in belts, resulting in quiet and stable drum rotation while reducing the number of wear parts.
Flexible and Versatile Peeling
The MS range provides flexible control through adjustable drum speed and dwell time, allowing processors to adapt the peeling process to different products and processing requirements. The machines can handle a variety of root vegetables and are designed for efficient peeling and polishing applications.
The MS-20 and MS-30 can also process non-pre-scraped products when equipped with the optional combi-drum. This drum incorporates integrated scraping plates, allowing both scraping and peeling to be performed in the same machine.
