Industrial potato flake production line
Maximize yield and quality in potato processing by integrating advanced pre-cleaning, peeling, and drying technologies, ensuring optimal product consistency and minimal waste in flake production.
Processes Potatoes into Flakes and Snacks
The Flake Line from Kiremko is a comprehensive potato processing system designed to transform raw potatoes into a variety of end-products, including potato flakes, instant mashed potatoes, and pellet snacks. Utilizing an integrated series of robust equipment such as cyclone destoners, drum washers, and steam peelers, this line ensures optimal cleanliness and peeling precision.
Its multi-stage process includes precise weighing and dosing systems that manage the flow of ingredients with high accuracy, while cutting and sizing machines like the Idaho Steel slicer optimize the blanching efficiency. The line’s screw type blanchers and coolers regulate product temperature, essential for consistent quality and ease of rehydration.
Capable of processing up to 70 tons per hour, the Flake Line is PLC-controlled, allowing for seamless integration into existing production environments. Its energy-efficient operation and durable stainless steel construction ensure longevity and reduced operational costs. The system accommodates customization to meet specific production needs, supported by Kiremko’s engineering expertise. Additionally, its design emphasizes quick maintenance and cleaning, enhancing uptime and production line efficiency.
