6-ROLL PEELER, WASHER, SCRUBBER for fruits and vegetables,  stainless steel, continuous, in-stock NEW...

An Alard Model PWS6, six-roll continuous peeler-washer scrubber, which can be fitted with any combination of brushes and / or abrasive rolls for peeling, brush washing, scrubbing, or finishing of fruits and vegetables such as potatoes, beets, carrots, onions, cucumbers, pickles, apples, oranges and others.

OPERATION:

Raw product is continuously fed to the peeling chamber and subjected to the spinning rolls (abrasive and/or brushes as the case may be). It is important that a sufficient amount of product be kept in the peeling chamber during operation for best results. Lubricating and rinsing action are provided in the chamber by overhead sprays, while the flow of product through the machine is regulated both by a weighted discharge door, and the inclination of the machine.

FEATURES:

• Hopper infeed opening in the hinged stainless steel cover.
  
  
• Lubricating and rinsing action are provided in the chamber via a stainless steel water spray pipe header with spray nozzles.
  
  
• Peeled product discharges through a stainless steel discharge gate which is adjustable so product can be subjected to a longer or shorter peeler /washing exposure.
  
  
• Water, peels and debris drop to a full length stainless steel water catch pan with a 6 inch by 6 inch center bottom outlet.
  
  
• Capacities vary widely depending on product characteristics, and process (peeling, washing, scrubbing), but 3 tons per hour more or less should be realistic for most applications.
  
  
• Unless otherwise specified, stock machines come with six (6) abrasive rolls, each 6 inch diameter by 6 foot long; but can be set with any combination of abrasive or brush rolls to buyer need / specification for stronger or gentler peeler / scrubbing action. Special order (and suitable lead time) for buyers with particular grit and/or brush specifications.
  
  
• The abrasive and / or brush rolls are mounted parallel (in-line) with product flow.
  
  
• Complete with central lubrication cluster for ease of maintenance.
  
  
• Chain / sprocket drive powered by a 5 HP 208/230/460 volt 3 phase 60 cycle constant speed motor.
  
  
• We recommend an optional "soft start" variable speed controller in a gasketed PVC NEMA 4 control box.
  
  
• Made in the USA.
  

As of this writing, this machine is in process and we expect to have it ready to ship by early February.
