Compact Design for Flexible Frying

The RotoCook™ is a state-of-the-art continuous oil frying system developed for pork rinds, tortilla chips, extruded and pellet snack products, including rings, twists, and three-dimensional starch-based items. It features an innovative rotary wheel with adjustable frying times ranging from 10 to 60 seconds. The fryer’s uniquely compact design maintains a low oil volume, resulting in a fast turnover rate to minimize oil degradation and extend your product’s shelf life. Available in electric or gas heating options, the fryer comes in three sizes, providing outputs ranging from 100 to 500 kg/hr.

Features and Benefits

The fryer includes a removable screen that prevents product fines from contacting the heating elements and a motor-driven, telescopic exhaust stack for easy access to the pan and frying wheel. Safety sensors auto-monitor temperature and oil levels while preventing the fryer hood from opening when the system is operational. Complete frying lines often incorporate de-oiling belts after the fryer with an optional oil recapture system. For products that require post-fry flavor application, PPM offers a comprehensive range of dry seasoning, liquid, and slurry coating equipment.
