Onion Peeler

The Onion Peeler is a compact batch-type peeling system designed for commercial kitchens, catering units, and vegetable preparation lines across the UAE and wider GCC region. It removes outer skins through abrasive action combined with washing. With an 8 kg load capacity per cycle and output up to 240 kg/h, it supports consistent pre-processing before cutting or cooking. This unit is suitable for restaurants, hypermarkets, and food factories operating across the Middle East and Africa (MEA).



This Onion Peeler from ATCOPACK Italy is engineered for controlled abrasive peeling of onions and similar root vegetables. The machine operates in short cycles of approximately 2 minutes, using a rotating abrasive disc to remove skins while flushing waste with water. It ensures uniform peeling without excessive product loss.

In food production units in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, the system is typically positioned after raw material washing and before slicing or dicing lines. With an 8 kg batch capacity and throughput around 240 kg/h, it suits medium-volume commissaries and hotel supply kitchens. The compact footprint and stainless-steel construction allow installation in confined preparation rooms or centralized vegetable processing sections.

The three-phase motor configuration ensures stable torque during continuous operation. The removable abrasive plate allows maintenance access and changeover for other vegetables such as potatoes or carrots. The machine body weight of approximately 45–46 kg makes relocation manageable when layout adjustments are required in high-turnover UAE facilities.

Frequently Asked Questions


The Onion Peeler is designed for medium-volume operations handling up to 240 kg per hour with 8 kg per batch. It fits well in hotel commissaries, hypermarket preparation sections, and centralized kitchens in Dubai or Abu Dhabi where consistent daily onion processing is required without investing in fully automated continuous lines.

The unit combines abrasive peeling with water flushing inside the chamber. Loosened skins are discharged through the outlet while water helps prevent clogging. In UAE facilities where hygiene audits are strict, the drainage connection can be linked directly to floor traps to maintain clean working conditions.

Yes. It is typically positioned after raw vegetable washing and before slicing or dicing stations. In Sharjah-based catering units, operators load batches manually, run a 2-minute cycle, then transfer peeled onions directly to cutting tables or mechanical slicers, maintaining a steady preparation flow.

Routine cleaning of the abrasive disc and chamber after each shift is essential. Inspecting the lining for wear and checking motor stability ensures consistent peeling performance. In high-humidity GCC environments, stainless steel surfaces should be rinsed and dried to reduce corrosion risk.

The removable abrasive plate allows processing of similar root vegetables such as potatoes or carrots. However, capacity and cycle time may vary depending on product density. Procurement teams should confirm application suitability when planning multi-vegetable use in UAE preparation kitchens.

Operators should ensure the lid is properly secured before starting the cycle. The control panel provides straightforward start and stop functions. During maintenance, power must be isolated. These procedures are standard in UAE food production sites operating under HACCP and municipality guidelines.
