The
DORNOW Blade Peeling Technology
Various Options for Planning the Plant
| 1. |
The
continuous "multiple-blade-disc peeling machines
(MSS)". Construction: Arrangement of many small blade peeling discs on an horizontal surface with a conveying device moving over this surface. |
| 2. | The continuous blade peeling lines SBS-M ("step-by-step" blade peeling plants), working in steps. |
| 3. | The carrousel blade peeling plants. |
| 4. | The tandem arrangement of conventional blade peeling machines mounted beside one another (plants with components connected in series) |
| 5. | Direct connection of blade peeling units to carborundum roller peeling machines |
Which of the plants, and under which conditions, can be used
in the most economic and efficient way depends on several
different factors, among other things also on the availabe
space, the required capacity etc.
Further
below we are going to deal with the various options:
As
for 1:
The continuous "multiple-blade-disc peeling
machines (MSS)".
The special features of the plant:
| - | Arrangement of many small fast-rotating (adjustable) blade peeling discs on an horizontal surface. |
| - | A conveying device moves the potatoes over these rotating blade discs. |
| - | The filling of the machines is to be adjustable. |
| - | The speed of both the blade peeling discs and the conveying device are adjustable. |
| - |
The machines are available in three sizes. The capacities are, when feeding potatoes already pre-peeled with carborundum, between 600 and 1500 kg/h (depending on the size of machines). |
| - |
The blade discs can be moved out of the machine by means of an assembly on wheels. They can be quickly mounted and dismantled. |
| - | The peeling is carried out in a very careful and gentle way which improves the keeping quality of the peeled potatoes (longer durability) . |
As
for 2:
The continuously working blade peeling lines SBS-M
("step-by-step"
blade
peeling plants), working in steps
Here
are some of the special features of the plant:
| - | Uncomplicated technical construction, thus very low maintenance costs |
| - | Low investment costs, resulting from plain design and technique |
| - | Modular connection of components possible; the capacity of the blade peeling line can be enhanced by the addition of further components |
| - | Throughputs of 500 kg up to max. 800 kg/h with potatoes pre-peeled by means of carborundum |
| - | Throughputs of 400 kg up to 700 kg/h if raw potatoes are fed in |
| - | The blade peeling line can also be supplied/retooled as combined carborundum blade peeling line (SBS-KM) |
| - | It can work without water/waste water |
As for 3:
Carrousel blade peeling plants
The
DORNOW carrousel blade peeling plant works as follows:
Four containers fixed on a central axle move the potatoes,
in cycles, over the stationary mounted rotating blade
peeling or carborundum discs. The application of both pure
blade peeling and combined carborundum blade peeling is
possible. -
The plant can work on its own or be used as blade re-peeling
system after previous carborundum peeling. In the latter
case the throughput will amount to some 1.2 tons/h.
As
for 4:
The tandem arrangement of conventional blade peeling
machines mounted beside one another (machines connected in series)
The
conventional blade peeling machines have a high throughput
if they are fed with material that has already been
pre-peeled by means of carborundum peeling machines - which
is the case as a rule. If, for instance, three machines from
a series production, mounted beside one another, are
automated, they can reach a throughput of 1 to 1.2 tons/h.
In this way it is possible to automate 2 to 5 or more
machines.
As
for 5:
Direct connection of blade peeling units to roller
peeling machines
In
case of capacities of up to 750 kg/h it is possible to
place blade peeling units directly behind roller peeling
machines.
Final
note:
Which
solution you are going to opt for will depend on the
situation in the factory and other factors.
