Overview

The Air De-oiling Machine uses continuous conveying and air blowing to remove excess surface oil from fried foods after frying. It is designed for continuous food processing lines and can be integrated with frying, seasoning, cooling, and packaging equipment.

How It Works

Fried products are transferred onto the stainless steel mesh conveyor after frying. As the products move forward, multiple air blowing units direct airflow onto the product surface to remove excess oil before the next processing stage.

Frying → Air De-oiling → Seasoning / Cooling → Packaging

Key Components

High-Volume Axial Blowers：Multiple high-volume axial blowers are arranged above the conveyor to provide strong airflow for removing excess surface oil from fried products. The airflow can also provide initial cooling before the next processing stage.

Stainless Steel Mesh Conveyor：The stainless steel mesh conveyor continuously transfers fried products through the air de-oiling section, allowing excess oil to drain while the products are exposed to airflow.

Oil Collection Tray：The lower collection section gathers oil removed from the products, allowing the recovered oil to be collected for appropriate handling or reuse and helping reduce oil waste.

SUS304 Food-Grade Stainless Steel Frame：The main frame is constructed from food-grade SUS304 stainless steel, providing a durable, corrosion-resistant structure that is easy to clean and maintain.

Control Panel & Conveyor System：The control panel provides convenient operation and inverter-controlled conveyor speed adjustment. The variable-speed conveyor allows the de-oiling time to be adapted to different products and processing requirements.

Key Features & Advantages

Continuous Air De-oiling & Pre-Cooling

Multiple high-volume axial blowers rapidly remove excess surface oil as the products move through the conveyor. The ambient airflow also provides initial cooling before seasoning or packaging.

Reduced Oil Loss & Better Product Texture

Effective surface oil removal reduces residual oil carried with the finished product, while the collection system gathers drained oil for appropriate handling or reuse. Lower surface oil also helps maintain a cleaner, crispier texture in fried products.

Variable-Speed Continuous Processing

The inverter-controlled conveyor enables operators to adjust conveying speed and de-oiling time according to different products, including potato chips, French fries, fried beans, and other fried foods.

Seamless Production Line Integration

The continuous conveyor design enables smooth connection with frying, seasoning, cooling, and packaging equipment for efficient continuous production.

Easy Cleaning & Maintenance

The stainless steel conveyor and open processing structure provide convenient access for cleaning and routine maintenance.

Applications
