Our spiral oven serves for cooking and/or browning your products with steam, hot circulating air, or both. Its spiral belt guide allows plenty of room for products in our oven with a minimum footprint in your production facility.
Cooking, heating, browning: The spiral oven from JBT ALCO slowly and gently runs products through the cooking process utilizing a spiral conveyor belt that can be extended if required. That way, large quantities of your product will be cooked, and browned, or just steam cooked very evenly in the spiral oven with circulating air and/or steam. The smart spiral system makes optimum use of the available space so that maximum production capacity is achieved in the smallest possible space. At the same time, the distance between the individual levels and therefore the possible product height can be flexibly varied by selecting the number of levels. That way, even larger products such as whole chicken, burgers, or lasagna get their appetizing brownness and succulent consistency.
Perfectly suitable for meatloaf, whole chicken, burgers, nuggets, bacon, lasagna, pretzels
