In the initial stage, an orange is carefully placed into a specialized peeling machine.
Mechanical arms gently but firmly grip the fruit while stabilizing rods support it from below.
This setup ensures that the orange remains perfectly centered for the upcoming peeling operation, minimizing waste and maximizing efficiency.
The Gripping Mechanism Engages
As the process begins, spring-loaded mechanical clamps tighten around the orange’s surface.
This secure grip is crucial for precision handling, especially since the fruit’s surface is soft and uneven.
The machine is engineered to apply just the right amount of pressure—enough to hold the fruit steady without damaging it.
Ready for the Peel
With the orange locked in place and stabilized, the machine is now prepared to execute its peeling function—often using rotating blades or specialized stripping tools.
This kind of automation is essential in large-scale citrus processing facilities, where speed and consistency are key.
It allows the oranges to be peeled quickly, uniformly, and hygienically, ready for juicing or packaging.
