Specifications:
The HEPRO® Universal Peeling Machine, Type HSM-U/W, operates on a power supply of 400 V / 50Hz 3 Ph with a total connection of 0.6 KW, increasing to 0.8 KW for semi-automatic feeding. It requires a compressed air supply between 3 and 8 bars. The machine dimensions are 1450 mm in height, 1800 mm in length (2500 mm with V-shaped infeed conveyor), and 1000 mm in width, weighing between 170 kg and 200 kg.

Performance:
The machine is designed to peel oblong vegetables such as carrots, cucumbers, large radishes, and black salsifies without the use of water. It accommodates vegetable diameters from 20 to 70 mm and lengths starting from 150 mm. The peeling capacity is 3000 pieces per hour with manual feeding and 5000 pieces per hour with semi-automatic feeding, with a peeling loss of approximately 15 to 20%.

Operation and Procedure:
The machine features conventional switches on the control panel, with infinitely variable surface pressure for the transport rolls. It includes functions for opening and closing the transport rolls. The procedure involves manual feeding, with 16 peeling cuts through 8 stations, each equipped with two knife blades. The transport rolls are horizontally arranged and maintenance-free, driven by a cog-belt. The knives adjust optimally to the vegetable form, ensuring low-noise operation.

Equipment and Options:
The machine is equipped with a rapid-changing system for the transport roll and peeling unit, allowing for variable peeling thickness. It is constructed from robust stainless steel and includes a peel collection tray. An optional V-shaped infeed conveyor is available for semi-automatic feeding, along with a collection tray.

Additional Information:
The HSM-U/W is designed to meet high standards, offering improved speed, safety, and cleanliness due to the horizontal arrangement of the transport rolls. HEPRO® emphasizes technology that excites and quality that satisfies, with a focus on detailed engineering.
