Shuliy Onion Peeling Machine Exported to Israel
In May 2026, Shuliy Machinery successfully delivered an onion peeling machine to a food processing facility in central Israel. This case demonstrates how a compact, efficient onion peeler can help mid-sized food manufacturers reduce labor costs and improve processing efficiency.
Asili ya Mteja
The customer operates a medium-scale food processing factory located in the central district of Israel. Specializing in prepared salads, pickled vegetables, and seasoning sauces, the facility processes approximately 500 kilograms of fresh onions daily for both domestic distribution and export to European markets.
Prior to automation, the factory relied on manual labor for onion peeling. With a workforce of 8-10 employees dedicated solely to peeling operations, the company faced rising labor costs and inconsistent product quality. Seasonal fluctuations in workforce availability further complicated production scheduling, making automation an increasingly attractive solution.
Client Requirements
The food processor approached Shuliy Machinery with specific operational requirements:
- Processing Capacity: A compact commercial onion peeling machine capable of handling 100-150 kg/h, matching their current daily volume while allowing room for modest growth.
- Space Constraints: Limited factory floor space required a machine with a small footprint that could integrate seamlessly into existing production lines.
- Power Compatibility: Single-phase 220V operation preferred to avoid costly electrical infrastructure upgrades.
- Budget Considerations: The client needed a cost-effective solution and already possessed an industrial air compressor, meaning the unit could be purchased without an integrated compressor to reduce initial investment.
- Hygiene Standards: Full compliance with food safety regulations for equipment used in ready-to-eat food production.
Suluhisho la Shuliy
After evaluating the client’s requirements, Shuliy recommended the SL-150 Onion Peeling Machine, a pneumatic onion skin peeling machine specifically suited for small to medium-scale operations.
Why the SL-150 Model?
The SL-150 was selected for this Israeli food processor because it directly addressed their operational constraints:
- Right-Sized Capacity: At 100-150 kg/h, the machine matches the client’s daily processing volume while eliminating manual labor bottlenecks.
- Compact Footprint: With dimensions of 620×630×1350 mm, the unit fits comfortably in facilities with limited floor space.
- Single-Phase Operation: The 220V, 200W power requirement meant no electrical system modifications were necessary.
- Pneumatic Peeling Technology: The dry peeling process uses compressed air to remove onion skins without water, ensuring peeled onions remain intact and suitable for downstream processing.
- Competitive Pricing: Excluding the air compressor significantly reduced the total investment, as the client sourced compressed air equipment locally.

Results and Benefits
Following installation in May 2026, the Israeli food processor reported measurable improvements across multiple operational areas.
Labor Cost Reduction
The onion peeling machine replaced the work of 8 manual peelers. With labor reassigned to higher-value tasks, the factory reduced peeling-related wage expenses by approximately 70%.
Processing Speed
What previously required a full 8-hour shift now completes in under 4 hours, effectively doubling throughput capacity without requiring additional equipment.
Product Quality
Pneumatic peeling produces consistently smooth, undamaged onion bulbs. The peeled onions show no bruising or cuts, extending shelf life and improving visual appeal for retail-packaged products.
Uzingatiaji wa Usafi
The stainless steel construction and dry peeling process eliminate water contamination risks, helping the facility maintain HACCP certification required for European export markets.
