Flavor Applicator

The equipment receives potatoes from sacks / container in bulk and feeds to the Dust Remover at a uniform rate so as to have proper product throughput. It consists of a flighted plastic conveyor belt of modular design and a buffer hop-per.

Elevator

The equipment removes stones and mud normally adhered to potato surface to make a safer slicing operation. Potatoes are received in turbulent water bath and are conveyed by a screw for further operation.

The equipment peels potatoes with minimum peel loss. Peeling is carried out by continuously rotating abrasive peelers. Peeled Potatoes move into an in-spection conveyor gradually. An infeed hopper controls feeding of potatoes inside the peeler. Peel waste is carried away with this water through drain and can be collected at the bottom.

Destoner

Peeler

Slice Washer Equipment performs washing of slices in 3 stages so that surface starch contents are reduced to minimal. First water intake at slicer washing in first section, second section is for removal of debris and first water. Second wa-ter intake at 3 section and washing also in third section. Third water at shaker bed. Potato slices from slicer enter into a continuously rotating tum-bler tube along with water.

Slices travel in a turbulent hot water bath. Turbulence of water is just enough so as to have optimal blanching of the slices without any damage to its physical state. The product moves in compartmentalized belt so that each slice gets uniform blanching. Water is recirculated by a pump through a heat exchanger where it is heated by heating system opted for. Temperature of the hot water is controlled by a controller whereas the product travel time is regulated by a variable speed motor.

Blancher

Shaker

Equipment removes excess surface water from the slices and separates them prior to frying. It consists of a vibrator and drain pan where water gets accumulated and drained. The amplitude of vibration is so adjusted that it does not break the slices.

Fryer Equipment is of dip frying & multiple inlet type with combination of paddles and submerger belt. The flow of oil ensures a laminar flow of oil, which is essential in order to have a uniform frying time for all the slices traveling in it. The equipment is designed to have a low oil holding capacity in order to achieve low oil turn over ratio. Complete system comprising of frying section with paddles & submerger belt , top hood, takeout belt, continuous oil filter & oil holding tank. Make up oil is continuously add-ed to the fryer to maintain optimal level by an automatic level controller. Speed of all the belts can be varied by variable frequency drives mounted in panel, so as to adjust the frying time. Similarly flow of inlet oil can be regulated with valves. Entire design allows easy cleaning of the system as top hood along with paddles & submerger conveyor can be lifted up with help of motorized screw jacks system provided.

FLAVOUR APPLICATOR & DRUM

Applicator

Flavour is sprinkled in proportion on chips by a ro-tating screw. Coagulation of flavour is avoided by mixing blade. A variable speed motor adjusts feed rate of the flavour.

Flavour Drum

It is a rotary horizontal drum, which blends the fried product and flavour together so that the fla-vour is evenly covered as far as practically possi-ble. The drum is made such that its degree of incli-nation can be adjusted. The drum is also provided with inwardly projecting product lifters. Speed of rotation of drum is variable .
