Grater Neumarker L05-50528

A pineapple peeler strips the tough skin and removes the fibrous core in a single mechanical pass, turning whole fruit into ready-to-slice rings or chunks without hand knives or coring tools.

The unit grips the pineapple between two rotating rollers. One roller is serrated to hold the fruit steady while the other carries a helical blade that spirals down the length of the pineapple. As the fruit turns, the blade peels away the skin in a continuous strip and ejects the core through the centre. The process is continuous: the operator loads one pineapple after another without stopping the machine.

To use, place the pineapple base-down on the feed tray. Push the fruit into the rollers until the serrated grip engages. Start the motor; the rollers turn and the blade advances automatically. The peeled pineapple emerges at the front, while skin and core drop into separate waste containers beneath the unit. No pre-trimming is needed; the machine accepts whole fruit as it arrives from the supplier.

The frame is constructed from painted steel for strength and corrosion resistance. The feed tray and waste chutes are stainless steel for hygiene and easy cleaning. The helical blade is high-carbon steel, hardened for long service between sharpening.

Controls consist of a single start-stop switch on the front panel. The switch is protected by a transparent cover to prevent accidental activation during cleaning.

The 450 mm width and 390 mm depth give a compact footprint that fits on a standard worktop or mobile trolley. The 18 kg weight allows one person to move the unit with a sack trolley or lift it onto a shelf when not in use.

Cleaning is limited to the parts the fruit touches. After each shift, remove the waste chutes and wash them in hot water with detergent. Wipe the rollers and blade with a damp cloth; do not immerse the motor housing. Sharpen the blade when the peel starts to tear instead of cutting cleanly.

The article L05-50528 is the standard version. A spare blade is available under article L-9-50528-00, sized for the Ø74 mm core diameter this model produces.

This peeler is listed in the Neumarker catalogue under Fruit Preparation Equipment.
