Abstract
Since most peeling is now done by hand, which is very convenient for housewives, skin removal is still an important unit activity in potato processing. The idea of fully automatic potato peeling equipment is the main objective of this project. The initiative focuses on small and medium potatoes, portable machines, and affordable manufacturing costs. It is intended for housewives and small businesses such as hawkers. The rotating disc, the peeling blade, and the drive connection to turn the rotating disc with the motor shaft are all included in the basic components of the machine. The protrusions on the inner surface of the rotating disc cause the potato to operate into the peeling blade as it rotates. During the process, a little water is needed to wash the potatoes and facilitate the peeling process. As a result, this machine can reduce the amount of time and labor required to process potatoes.
