Continuous infrared cooking oven

Infrabaker is a modular infrared continuous cooking oven developed by Infrabaker International. The machine is designed to cook or put colour on a wide variety of food products, such as bacon, chicken fillets, patties, salmon, dough, cake, vegetables and many more. The process does not require any other medium such as eg, cooking oil, hot air, steam or thermal oil.

The direct emission of the heat to the product results in a minimal loss of liquids and generally a higher yield than competing systems. Starting up and product switching times are practically non-existent. The infrared emitters reach their full capacity within seconds and cool down just as fast. The emitters are self-cleaning and the continuous belt is equipped with a belt washing station.

Infrabaker offers optimal use of energy, an oil-free cooking process, high flexibility and constant product quality with low product loss.

The modular cooking system is available in effective cooking widths of 600, 900 and 1200 mm. The length is also variable and can be extended in units of 3 m.

The Infrabaker modules include an emitter to supply the radiation heat for the products to be processed; a conveyor belt with servo drive to transport the products at the required speed; computer with operator panel to control and monitor the overall cooking process; belt washing station to clean the belt during production; control cabinet and one or more IR-power cabinets to control the air supply filter unit(s); and exhaust fan(s).

Possible Infrabaker options include: turn station(s) for bulk production, flip station(s) for single and bulk production and discharge belt.

External device options include the Infraskimmer and Infrapump.
