The HiTec Spiral Oven (HSO) is perfectly suited for producing steamed, cooked and roasted products in hot circulating air and/or steam. The spiral conveyor belt design allows a large effective cook zone while the space requirement is small. Large product quantities can be cooked gently in the spiral oven, whereby an optimal colour and texture are achieved and moisture losses in the product are minimised.
The HiTec Spiral Oven (HSO) the future of food processing is here!. Perfectly suited for producing cooked, browned and roasted and or steamed products in hot circulating air and/or steam. The spiral oven is usually combined with different type of Hitec processing equipment, in particular the coating line and fryer to achieve a full range of flavors and appearance for in line processing.
The spiral conveyor belt design allows a large effective cook zone while the space requirement is small. Large product quantities can be cooked gently in the spiral oven, whereby an optimal colour and texture are achieved and moisture losses in the product are minimised. The distance between the individual levels and therefore the possible product height can be flexibly varied by selecting the number of levels. That way, even larger products such as whole chicken etc, get their appetizing brownness and succulent consistency
