Abstract

This study was carried out in potato chips production line to improve the performance of production line. The peeling device heat and control (Mod BP) potato batch peeler type was modified to suit the different varieties of potatoes were used and its performance was evaluated. Two different varieties of potato (Hermes and Lady Rosetta), harvested from two soil type (sand and clay), under using two peeling processes (conventional and modified). The measurements were taken before and after modified potato peeler to measure the performance of the peeling process and the quality of the final potato as chips. The results showed that when used modified potato peeler the peeling efficiency was increased by 3.1 %, the mechanical destruction of the potato tubers were decreased by 32.7 %, the peeling time of every batch decreased by 17.7 % so the peeler productivity per hour increased by 21.9 % and the water consumption decreased by 17.6 % . The properties of the final product were improved as the oil content percentage was decreased by 2.4 %. That means dropping of use oil and processing time addition to have more healthy product.
