In-line smoking system for meat products
Transform raw ingredients into premium smoked products swiftly and efficiently, reducing traditional smoking times from hours to minutes, while ensuring cleaner, healthier results free from harmful residues.
Processes and Smokes Food Products Efficiently
The GEA SuperHeatSmoke & HotSmoke from GEA offers innovative in-line smoking solutions for food processors, integrating seamlessly into continuous operations. This system combines double spiral oven technology with patented smoke atomization using condensed natural smoke, enhancing flavor and consistency of smoked products like chicken, beef, pork, seafood, and plant-based items. By operating at both above and below 100°C, it caters to a variety of proteins and produces ‘Clean Label’ products without harmful residues. The GEA CookStar technology reduces smoking times drastically and ensures uniform product quality. It is designed for energy efficiency and minimal footprint, offering larger capacities and faster processing times compared to traditional batch systems. Available with comprehensive automation features, including PLC control and remote monitoring, it facilitates easy integration and real-time optimization in production lines. The equipment is crafted from high-quality materials to ensure durability and compliance with food safety regulations, and requires low maintenance, featuring Clean-In-Place (CIP) systems for efficient cleaning processes.
