Blanching and cooking of products is carried out in a NEAEN RotaBlanch drum blanching/cooking chamber. (For products with a soft structure which cannot be mixed during cooking, such as mussels and shrimp, cooking/blanching is carried out in a NEAEN ContiBlanch conveyor-type machine).
Even supply of product into the blanching machine is provided by means of a feeding conveyor, which lifts a given amount of the product from the hopper to the necessary height. Depending on the type of product, it is treated with steam or water at a given temperature for the necessary amount of time, evenly mixed, and moved to the exit of the drum blanching/cooking chamber.
Full unloading of loose product is ensured by specially-designed rotating blades, after which the product enters an area of cooling to prevent any overcooking, and then is preparing for packaging or freezing.
Depending on the type of product, the line is equipped with an air cooler with a system for removing moisture and undesired particles from the product, or a water cooling conveyor, after which the drying conveyor is located.
When cooled, the dry product is placed on an inspection conveyor so it can be visually inspected and any damaged portions rejected. The inspection conveyor is equipped with a white PVC belt to ensure the greatest contrast with the product and is brightly lit along its entire length. The length of the conveyor is determined by the number of working places and the output. If the customer wishes, an inspector conveyor can also be installed in front of the cooking machine.
