Battering machine for food coating applications
Enhance your food products with uniform and efficient batter application, ensuring consistent taste and quality while minimizing waste, thanks to an advanced liquid coating system that handles diverse viscosities and processes both thin and thick batters seamlessly.
Applies and Regulates Batter Coatings Efficiently
The Alco Battering Machine, offered in both the APN ECO and PRO models, revolutionizes the food processing industry by delivering consistent and precise coating solutions. Suitable for a wide range of applications—from schnitzels to plant-based foods—this machine ensures each product is perfectly coated, enhancing both texture and flavor.
Operating on a continuous, high-speed basis, the machine effectively applies liquid and slurry coatings using a powerful pump system, capable of handling coatings of various viscosities. The integrated overflow devices create a batter curtain, ensuring full coverage on all sides of the product, while the adjustable blower and material return systems minimize waste by removing excess batter.
With available belt widths ranging from 250 to 1,000 mm, the machine supports high throughput, perfect for large-scale operations in food processing companies, meat and seafood processors, and ready-meal producers. Its stainless steel construction ensures durability and easy cleaning, while optional features such as a cooling jacket and rotary lobe pump expand its functionality for specialized needs.
Compliant with food safety standards, the Alco Battering Machine supports seamless integration into existing production lines, offering automation and customization options tailored to specific operational requirements. This makes it an indispensable asset for industries focused on efficiency, product quality, and resource management.
