Description

Product overview
The onion peeling and root cutting machine is an automated vegetable processing unit combining high-speed peeling and precision root cutting to prepare onions for downstream processing.

Use case
Engineered for commercial and industrial food-processing lines, the unit automates removal of dry outer skins and trims root and stem ends to enable continuous, high-throughput production while preserving onion integrity.

Key features
  • Compressed air — removes dry skin without mechanical cutting
  • High-speed peeling system — minimal waste and controlled skin removal
  • Automatic feeding & discharge — supports continuous line operation


Variants and configurations
Available as integrated peeler models with optional root-cutting units and automated material-handling configurations for industrial-scale plants.

FL-YQ-2 Onion Root Cutting Machine — brief
The FL-YQ-2 is a dedicated root-cutting module designed to trim both root and stem ends with consistent positioning and cutting accuracy for high-throughput lines.

Working principle
  • Feeding system: Onions are fed via hopper or conveyor to individual processing stations
  • Peeling section: High-pressure air jets or rotating rollers loosen and remove outer dry skins
  • Root cutting system: Precision blades cut root and tail ends automatically
  • Sorting and discharge: Processed onions are transferred to conveyor for further handling or packaging


Technical parameters
  • Peeler model: FL-YB-3
  • Peeler dimensions: 2.37 m × 1.20 m × 1.77 m
  • Peeler power supply: 380V, 50Hz
  • Air supply (peeler): ≥1.0 MPa
  • Peeler power: 1.15 kW
  • Peeler output: 2000–2500 kg/hour (onions 60–100 mm diameter)
  • Peeler weight: 340 kg
  • Root cutter model: FL-YQ-2
  • Root cutter capacity: 90–100 pieces/minute
  • Root cutter motor power: 2.22 kW
  • Root cutter voltage: 220V, 60Hz


Additional information
  • Fully automated process reduces manual handling and improves line consistency
  • Suitable for commercial and industrial food-processing installations
  • Designed to minimize product damage and reduce waste during peeling
