Sandwich pot
- Uniform heating: The structure of the corn flaking pan allows heat to be evenly transferred to all parts of the pan, ensuring consistent corn cooking and stable product quality.
- Temperature controllable: According to the process requirements of corn flakes, the temperature and pressure of the heat medium in the interlayer can be accurately controlled, so as to accurately control the cooking temperature and time of corn.
- Strong applicability: The corn flake pressing sandwich pot is suitable for both small-scale experimental production and large-scale industrial production. Sandwich pots of different specifications can be selected according to production needs.
- Easy to clean: The stainless steel pot has a smooth surface, is not easy to adhere to materials, is easy to clean, and meets the hygiene requirements of the food processing industry.
- Improve production efficiency: The corn flake sandwich pot can heat up quickly and maintain a stable temperature, shortening the corn cooking time, thereby improving production efficiency and meeting the needs of large-scale production.
- Save energy: The structural design of the corn flake sandwich pot is conducive to the full utilization of heat and reduces heat loss. Compared with some traditional heating methods, it is more energy-efficient and reduces production costs.
- Stable product quality: Precise temperature control and uniform heating ensure that the quality of each batch of corn flakes remains highly consistent, reducing fluctuations in product quality and helping to improve product market competitiveness.- Safe operation: Equipped with safety devices such as safety valves and pressure gauges, the corn flaking sandwich pot can effectively prevent safety accidents caused by excessive pressure in the pot, ensuring the safety of operators and equipment.
- Versatility: In addition to being used for steaming corn flakes, the corn flake sandwich pot can also be used in other food processing processes that require heating and steaming, such as bean steaming, sauce boiling, etc. It has a certain versatility and improves the utilization rate of the equipment.
Corn flake sandwich pot structure design
- Pot body: It usually consists of two layers, inner and outer, welded together with full penetration structure. The inner pot body is generally made of acid-resistant and heat-resistant austenitic stainless steel, such as 06Cr19Ni10, SUS304 or SUS316L, which meets food hygiene requirements. The outer pot body can be made of carbon steel or stainless steel.
- Jacket: The layer between the inner and outer pots, through which steam, hot water, heat transfer oil or electric heating elements can be passed to achieve uniform heating of the corn in the pot.
- Stirring device: Equipped with a stirrer, which has multiple types such as top center stirring and planetary stirring, so that the corn can be heated more evenly during the steaming process.
- Pot lid and seal: The pot lid is designed with a good sealing structure, and is usually equipped with safety devices such as pressure gauge and safety valve.
- Bracket and tilting device: The tilting sandwich pot is equipped with a channel steel bracket-type tilting frame. The tilting device composed of a worm gear, worm, hand wheel and bearing seat can realize the tilting and flipping of the pot body to facilitate discharging.
Working principle of corn flake sandwich pot
By introducing heat media such as steam, hot water or heat-conducting oil into the interlayer, or using electric heating elements to generate heat, the heat is conducted through the pot body to evenly heat and cook the corn in the pot, and the temperature and time are precisely controlled to make the corn reach the ideal degree of softening and maturity.
Corn flake sandwich pot specifications
- Volume: Common specifications include 100L-2000L, which can be selected according to production needs.
- Heating power: The power of the corn flaking pan varies according to the model and volume, generally ranging from several kilowatts to tens of kilowatts.
- Working pressure: The working pressure of steam-heated sandwich kettle is usually within a certain range, such as 0.1-0.3MPa, etc., depending on the equipment design and process requirements.
Corn flake sandwich pot heating method
- Electric heating: Electric heating elements are used to convert electrical energy into thermal energy. It has a faster heating speed, precise temperature control, and is clean and hygienic, but the operating cost is relatively high.
- Steam heating: Using steam as the heat source, it has high thermal efficiency and uniform heating, and is suitable for large-scale production, but it requires auxiliary equipment such as steam boilers.
- Gas heating: natural gas, liquefied gas or pipeline gas is used as the heat source, with high heating power, fast heating speed and flexible control of heating temperature.
Corn flake sandwich pot application scenarios
It is mainly used in corn flake processing industry, used in the process of corn steaming and softening, to prepare for the subsequent flake pressing. In addition, it is also widely used in food processing such as candy, cakes, beverages, juice, jam, as well as brewing, wine making, pharmaceutical and daily chemical industries.
