Potato peeling with the combi-peeler

The FORMIT COMBI-peelers can be successfully used for peeling potatoes. Cleaned potatoes are the ideal raw material.

The COMBI-peelers can be set-up in several different ways. Like a conventional abrasive peeler, as a full knife peeler or a combination of both an abrasive and a knife. The abrasive part can be made of carborundum or stainless steel. The COMBI-peeler can also be set-up with brush elements.

In so far as the COMBI-peeler is configured with knifes, the final product produces a good knife like cut. This type of final result improves the shelf-life and decreases the need for chemicals.

The COMBI-peelers work with both round and oval products (a good yield and quality).

For the best results (yield and quality), use size graded raw material (10-15 mm span), which are washed!

The feeding of the peeler is an important issue. An even flow of raw material results in an even quality and yield.

The Combi-5 is recommended for use with raw potatoes up to max diameter 10-12 cm.
