The Omcan 48002 Onion Peeler
The Omcan 48002 is an automatic onion peeler built for kitchens that go through enough onions to justify taking the job off your prep team entirely. It peels up to 120 kilograms per hour in 6-kilogram batches, which means a single cycle handles roughly 13 pounds of onions and the machine can keep that pace going all shift. If you run a commissary kitchen, a soup or sauce production line, or a high-volume restaurant where prep cooks spend hours hand-peeling onions, this unit pays for itself in labor savings quickly.
0.5 HP Motor with 6 kg Per-Cycle Capacity
The 0.5 HP motor (373 watts) drives an abrasive peeling disc that strips the outer skin without cutting into the onion flesh. You load up to 6 kilograms into the chamber, close the lid, and the machine runs the batch in seconds. A water inlet rinses the peeled skins away during the cycle so you do not have to stop and clean out debris between loads. The result is a cleanly peeled onion that is ready for slicing, dicing, or going straight into a food processor. Compared to hand peeling, you eliminate the tedious, tear-inducing work and free up your prep staff for tasks that actually require a knife and a cutting board.
Compact Footprint at 19 Inches Wide
At 19.3 by 15.4 by 23 inches, the unit fits on a standard prep table without crowding out your other equipment. It runs on 110V/60Hz single-phase power, so you can plug it into a regular outlet without any electrical modifications. The body weighs 45.6 pounds, heavy enough to stay put during operation but light enough for two people to reposition if your workflow changes. Manufactured in Brazil, it is built with commercial-grade components designed for the daily demands of a professional kitchen.
