Overview: Streamlined Production Process
The baked potato chips making machine integrates technologies from composite potato chip and biscuit production lines, delivering a seamless process from raw material processing to packaging. Key stages include:
- Sheeting & Molding: A precision roller system shapes potato-based dough into uniform sheets, ensuring consistent thickness for even baking.
- Tunnel Oven Baking: Equipped with multi-zone temperature control (typically 160–220°C), the oven uses hot air circulation to achieve a crispy texture without frying.
- Flavoring & Packaging: An automated spray system applies seasonings, followed by cooling and stacking mechanisms for retail-ready packaging.
Capacity & Utilities:
- Output: Configurable capacities of 250kg/h or 500kg/h
- Workspace: Requires 70m (L) × 20m (W) for full line installation
- Power: 130–140kW
- Gas Consumption: 25–50kg/h
- Compressed Air: 25–30 m³/h
