The Disposal system (Subsystem 8) routes peels and cores into separate conveyance paths so each waste stream can be handled independently downstream. After core ejection, cores fall into core chutes (hexagonal-tube concept beneath each peeler station) while peel material flows around the core chutes into the peel chute. Two augers then convey peels and cores separately out of the machine — for example, cores may go to secondary wash or juice extraction while peels go to disposal.
Colour key & components
Peel chute, core chutes, augers — detail pages TBD. Some CAD views use alternative colours (second row).

Recommended figures (contractor clarity)
Add figure: Peel vs core separation — plan view streamlines at hex chute array.
Add figure: Auger infeed transition — chute-to-auger for peel and core lines separately.
Core from core ejectionfalls into the core chutes directly below each peeler station.
Peels leave the peeler station and flow around the core chutes via chute geometry (hexagonal tubes with triangular leading/trailing faces), preventing peels from entering the core chute stream.
Two augers convey peels and cores away separately.
Interfaces
Input (cores): From core ejection — core falls into core chute.
Input (peels): From collection/extraction — peels to sides of peelers, two channels.
Output: Two augers convey peels and cores away separately.
