Commercial Peelers: Remove the Thin Skin of Vegetables

Commercial peelers are electric machines designed for removing the thin skin of vegetables like potatoes or carrots. Peeling vegetables is one of the commercial kitchens' most time-consuming food prep tasks. Doing the job with handheld peelers takes time and effort, not to mention the mess it creates. Industrial vegetable peelers feature a hopper, stainless steel body with rotating discs and running water, and a discharge chute. They combine two tasks: peeling and washing. They also minimize product waste.

Although commercial peelers can peel many root vegetables, they are usually marketed as industrial potato peelers or garlic peelers. When buying one, capacity can make a difference in your work efficiency. This is often specified as the amount the hopper can hold, which may range from around 10 to 70 pounds. You may also wish to know the production capacity. For instance, a garlic peeler with a 9-pound capacity can peel nearly 106 pounds of garlic cloves an hour. An industrial potato peeler with a 70-pound load capacity can process up to 1500 pounds per hour.

The hourly output in commercial peelers may also vary based on the timer. The five-minute timer is the standard on many models, and the 6-minute timer ensures a higher yield.
