Why ASTRA fruit peeling machines are so special

Using an automatic peeler machine to replace manual peeling is a common trend. There are many types of peelers in the market, and although they all serve the same peeling purpose, the functionality, productivity and results can be very different. ASTRA Inc. is an innovative Japanese peeler developer. The company is famous for its unique ‘Peeler blade' technology.Get more news about peeling machine,you can vist our website!

When peeling fruits with your hand, you will always use a hand peeler. Hand peelers can always peel beautifully. However, most of the traditional peeling machines don't use the same blade of the hand peeler, they use a ‘round-type peeling unit'. This peeling unit cuts out small circular pieces around the edge until the fruit is peeled.

Though the round-type peeler serves basic functionality, it can result in high waste, slow speed and rough quality. To solve these issues, ASTRA developed a ‘blade peeler'. The principle shares similarities with manual peeling. The blade is straight, sharp and thin. When turning, the blade moves in a polygonal way, while always tightly pressed to the surface of the fruit.

More than 20 types of products can be handled with one single machine, including fruits such as orange, grapefruit, lemon, kiwi, and vegetables such as tomato, potato and turnip. Users only need to place the product on the rotation head, and press the start button. There is no need to worry that the product is in an irregular shape, as the machine has a mechanism to optimize the position of the blade and find the best angle to peel it.Compared with traditional ‘round-type peelers', the new ASTRA ‘blade peeler' generates a variety of benefits with regards to peeling performance. First of all, the fruits' peeling surface is much smoother than round-type peelers, which leave the pulp surface very bumpy and rough.

This results in low pulp waste and fewer juice drippings. Also because of the smoother surface, the fruit has a longer shelf life and can keep fresh for a longer period. Secondly, the straight blade performs faster with high accuracy, which results in better yield rate.

Most importantly, users can easily adjust the peeling depth and select the most suitable program for a certain type of fruit. No matter how wonky the fruit is, no matter how thick or thin the fruit peel is, from thick-skinned oranges to thin-skinned lemons, the blade peeler will provide the best performance accordingly.The irregular fruit shape challenges the peeling technique. Mangoes share the reputation of ‘most difficult fruit to be peeled'. Every mango can be different, from round to elongated shape. The highly-flexible blade peeler works perfectly on each fruit.

Fruits such as pineapple have a barrel shape. A traditional round-type peeler can easily result in high waste. As the blade peeler moves in a polygonal way, the yield rate can be 50% higher than a round-type peeler.

Sometimes you only need thin fruit skin for lemons and limes, when making drinks like Limoncello. Zesting can be done with the adjustable- depth blade, the thinnest fruit skin can be perfectly peeled!

Restaurants and fruit-salad companies often pursue high productivity, which leads to high requirements when processing small-size fruits. The high-speed blade peeler already proved its performance in several kiwi factories in New Zeeland.
