Abstract

Banana peeling is a primary operation in banana processing industries used for chips, flour, and other value-added products. Conventional manual peeling methods are labor- intensive, time-consuming, and unsuitable for continuous processing. To improve efficiency and hygiene, a tabletop banana peeling machine was designed and fabricated using air powered mechanism and sensor-based detection. In the developed system, pre-trimmed bananas are placed on the adjustable base. When the sensor detects the material, it triggers the mechanical actuation. The peeling unit consisting of sharpened edges which removes the peel from the pulp. This machine provides improved peeling efficiency, reduced manual handling, and better process hygiene. The compact and low-cost design makes the system suitable for small- and medium-scale banana processing units.
