Description
The RotoCook is a continuous oil fryer for pork rinds, tortilla chips and extruded and pellet snacks, including rings, twists and three-dimensional starch-based products. A patented rotary wheel gives adjustable frying times from 10 to 60 seconds. The compact design keeps oil volume low, so the oil turns over quickly, which limits oil degradation and extends product shelf life. It is available with electric or gas heating, in three sizes with outputs from 100 to 500 kg/h.
Features
- Removable screen keeps product fines away from the heating elements
- Motor-driven telescopic exhaust stack for easy access to the pan and frying wheel
- Automatic hood lift for easy cleaning
- Safety sensors monitor temperature and oil level and prevent the hood from opening while the system is running
- Fully automated system
Line integration
The compact footprint makes installation simple and allows the fryer to be added to new or existing lines. A typical line includes an incline belt, infeed conveyor, fryer, de-oiling belts (with optional oil recapture) and complete controls, followed where needed by PPM dry seasoning, liquid or slurry coating equipment.
Typical applications
3D extruded products, pellets, pork rinds, salmon skins.
