High velocity impingement oven for food processing
Optimize your cooking operations with a high velocity impingement oven that ensures rapid heat transfer and exceptional cooking uniformity, enhancing both product quality and production capacity in continuous food processing.

Delivers Rapid, Uniform Cooking with High Velocity Airflow
The Stein JSO-IV Jet Stream® Impingement Oven by Stein stands out as a versatile solution for food processing companies, particularly those in poultry, meat, and seafood industries. Featuring VaporJET® technology, it combines thermal fluid heating with high velocity vertical impingement airflow for unparalleled cooking uniformity. This oven excels in delivering rapid heat transfer and excellent color development, ensuring optimal product yield for items like chicken nuggets, roasted chicken breasts, and smoked salmon fillets. Designed with two thermal fluid heat exchangers, the oven offers distinct temperature zones and removes combustion by-products from the product zone. It supports continuous and high-speed operations, tailored for automation with ProLINK® PLC controls, and integrates seamlessly with upstream finishing and downstream cooling processes. Energy efficiency is enhanced through variable frequency drives for air circulation fans, while the fully automatic Clean-in-Place system ensures minimal downtime and contamination risk. Modular in design, the oven accommodates various product heights with adjustable upper plenums, making it adaptable for different processing requirements.
