Industrial fryer for meatballs and vegetarian food

Enhance your production with a versatile industrial fryer that offers precise frying control for diverse food types, ensuring optimal texture and flavor with continuous sediment removal for superior quality and cleanliness.

Fryers Perform Flash Frying and Full Cooking

The Alco Fryer AGF ECO & PRO from Alco Food-Machines is engineered to deliver versatile frying and cooking solutions for diverse food processing needs. This fryer operates with flexible settings, allowing you to flash fry or fully cook a range of products, including meatballs, schnitzels, plant-based nuggets, and tempura vegetables. It utilizes a continuous sediment removal system to maintain oil cleanliness, enhancing product quality.

With continuously adjustable belt systems, the fryer accommodates various product types and production speeds, integrating seamlessly into existing production lines. The oil-circulating heat transfer system ensures optimal cooking efficiency, reducing energy consumption compared to conventional fryers. Constructed from stainless steel, the fryer offers durability and resistance to corrosion, while its CIP system supports easy, effective cleaning.

Available in ECO and PRO models, the former offers a space-efficient design for lower output requirements, while the latter suits high-capacity operations. Both models support precise temperature and speed controls, and the fryer’s design allows customization to fit specific line requirements, ensuring adaptability across food processing industries.
