Infrared Cooking & Colouring

Infrabaker® is a modular infrared continuous cooking system developed by Infrabaker International. The machine is designed to cook and/or put colour on a wide range of food products, such as bacon, chicken filets, patties, salmon, dough, cake, vegetables and many more.  Image

The proces does not require any other medium such as e.g. cooking oil, hot air, steam or thermal oil.

The direct emission of the heat on the product results in a minimal loss of liquids and generally a higher yield than competing systems. Starting up and product switching times are pratically 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® stands for high yields, optimal use of energy, an oil-free cooking process, high flexibility and constant product quality.

 

The Infrabaker® is a modular cooking system and can be offered in an effective cooking width of  600mm, 900mm or 1200mm. The length is also variable and can be extended in sections of 3 meters.

  • Emitter modules which supply the required heat to the products
