FAMA KM

FAMA KM spare parts ensure stable operation and productivity of this Italian professional food processing equipment manufacturer’s potato peelers. Regular maintenance of FAMA potato peelers with quality spare parts guarantees a clean peeling result and minimal product loss in commercial kitchens.

Operating principle of FAMA potato peelers

FAMA professional potato peelers use a combination of an abrasive disc and a rotating drum for efficient potato peeling. Abrasive disc — the abrasive disc located at the bottom of the FAMA potato peeler rotates and scrubs the potato skins; the disc is the main replaceable part. Rotating drum — the FAMA drum ensures even peeling by moving the potatoes across the entire abrasive disc surface. Water supply — the FAMA potato peeler features a water supply; water flushes out peel residues from the equipment; it is important to maintain the correct water flow. Drain valve — the FAMA drain valve at the bottom for water and peel residues; requires regular cleaning. Also check potato peeler spare parts.

Optimising potato peeling efficiency

The efficiency of FAMA potato peelers depends on several factors that can be optimised. Potato size and quantity — do not load more potatoes into the FAMA machine than specified by the manufacturer; an overloaded machine reduces peeling efficiency. Pre-washing potatoes — pre-washing potatoes extends the service life of the FAMA abrasive disc; sand and grit accelerate disc wear. Peeling time — adjust the FAMA potato peeling time according to the potato variety and size; excessive peeling increases product loss. Water supply — ensure continuous water supply during FAMA machine operation; peel residues are properly flushed out. BHS supplies FAMA KM spare parts.

Food safety and hygiene in potato peeler maintenance

Maintaining hygiene in FAMA potato peelers is a mandatory requirement for compliance with food safety standards. Post-operation cleaning — disassemble, clean with food-safe detergents and dry the FAMA potato peeler after each shift. Abrasive disc cleaning — regularly remove potato starch and peel residues from the FAMA abrasive disc. Drum disinfection — disinfect the FAMA drum after cleaning with a food-safe disinfectant. Drying — store the FAMA machine dry; moisture can promote mould growth in remaining plant residues. Also check SIRMAN KM.
