Half Fried Potato Production Line
Half Fried Potato Production Line
General description of the production line:
The production line starts working from receiving raw potatoes to obtaining the final product, semi-fried potatoes
The potatoes are washed with water to make sure they are clean, then peeled, and then they enter the sorting stage to ensure that the potatoes are intact from defects, then the cutting machine begins and can be cut in several shapes (fingers – slices – cubes) and the size of the piece can be controlled as desired. The cut potatoes pass through Then in the stage of sorting and expelling the impurities after sorting the potatoes, the stage of starch extraction comes, and after this stage, the boiling stage begins with hot water, and then the drying tunnel stage begins, to reach the dried starch pulled potatoes to the potato fryer to fry the potatoes equipped with an oil heating system through either heaters or A gas burner on demand, and the potato fryer has an automatic lid lifting system and quick cleaning, as well as a continuous filtering and filtering system,
It is equipped with tanks to save the oil, and then the potatoes go through the drying phase again using the vibrator machine and wind turbines, followed by the shock tunnel where the product enters the air temperature and comes out separated and ready for packing and then immediately goes to the feeding belt that flows into the
The weight tower of the filling machine, which operates with a weight control system through electronic scales and is able to determine the weight as desired.
What does the production line consist of?
1- Primary feeding process:
It is the first piece in the line and its function is to transfer the potatoes to the peeling and washing machine
The belt is equipped with a basin for emptying raw potatoes into it.
Made of food grade 304 stainless steel.
Equipped with a motor that can control the feeding speed by an inverter device
2- Peeling and washing machine:
After the potatoes come out of the first belt, they enter the stage of washing with pressurized water and peeling inside this machine through friction.
While maintaining the shape of the pill after peeling, which reduces waste during peeling.
Made of food grade 304 stainless steel.
3- Manual sorting processfor potato kernels:
It is used to sort the potato kernels manually after peeling, in order to monitor the quality of the kernels before entering the shredding.
Provided with special paths for damaged pieces to ensure that they do not enter the sector.
Made of food grade stainless steel 304.
Equipped with a motor to control its speed by inverter.
Equipped with platforms for workers to stand on during the monitoring and sorting process.
Potatoes are cut according to the shape to be manufactured with the possibility of installing several molds and sizes for each mold, including fingers, slices and cubes with the possibility of changing the size of the pieces produced on demand. Made of food grade stainless steel 304.
5- Water belt for transporting potatoes:
With it, the fingers of potatoes are washed after cutting them by passing through the walk basin filled with water, in addition to the presence of sprinklers on the path whose task is to wash the fingers with pressurized water after they leave the basin in order to reduce the initial starch layer of the potato.
The belt is equipped with a motor that controls its speed by means of an inverter.
Made of food grade 304 stainless steel.
Equipped with belt sprayers that can be measured and controlled by pressure and spray direction.
6- Automatic sorting process for potato kernels:
By it, the potato fingers are sorted and isolated from the pieces. Impurities that may come out when cutting the fingers, which may spoil the quality of the final product as petty pieces of the shredder, and are assembled in a designated place inside the machine for processing or disposal.
Made of food grade 304 stainless steel
7- Starch and sugar extraction machine:
It is used to pass the potato fingers after sorting them at a high pressure of water with air with the principle of jacuzzi in order to remove starches and sugars from inside the fingers in addition to washing them with high water pressure to ensure the removal of the remaining layers of starch on the potatoes. .
The belt is equipped with a motor whose speed can be controlled by an inverter.
The belt is equipped with a high pressure air pump.
The belt is equipped with a high-pressure water pump for the sprinklers, which is calibrated and controls the pressure and the direction of the spray.
Made of food grade 304 stainless steel.
8- Boiling and final enzyme extraction machine:
It removes the live enzymes and deactivates them, in addition to standardizing the color of the potatoes by boiling and automatically stirring the vacuum system to remove any excess traces of starches or sugars from the potatoes, which gives it a light and equal color in all its parts.
The belt is equipped with a motor whose speed can be controlled by an inverter.
The belt is equipped with a moving motor and a loosening of the fingers, whose speed can be controlled by an inverter.
The machine contains an electric heating system with a temperature difference not exceeding 3 degrees from the required degree.
The machine is equipped with a protection system. When any machine that precedes or follows the boiling machine is malfunctioning, it automatically unloads its load with a warning signal, to ensure that the potatoes are not damaged by staying for a longer period of time in water.
Full thermal insulation of the internal parts of the machine.
Made of food grade 304 stainless steel.
9- Pre-drying vibrator:
It removes water droplets from the potato fingers in the first place and removes unwanted pieces automatically and collects them in a place inside the vibrator. It also distributes the potatoes in an even horizontal way, preparing for their entry into the thermal drying tunnel.
The vibrator is equipped with holes for draining unwanted pieces.
Made of food grade 304 stainless steel
10- Thermal drying tunnel:
Potato fingers are dried by exposing them to hot and dry air currents in order to extract moisture and water from inside the fingers to ensure a high crunch, in addition to facilitating the process of frying and freezing without the accumulation of ice blocks during the electrocution process.
The belt is equipped with an air heating system by electric heaters.
Equipped with closed circuit fans to enhance thermal retention in addition to speeding up the air pressure heating process.
Made of food grade 304 stainless steel
11-Dehydrated Potatoes Conveyor Device:
In it, the potatoes are transported after they leave the drying belt, and they are fed to the fryer sequentially by the belt in order to ensure the preservation of production capacity.
Made of food grade 304 stainless steel.
12- Continuous frying machine:
By which the potatoes enter the oil basin equipped with electric heaters, and the potatoes are moved inside the fryer with a continuous stirring movement to ensure that the entire bean is waxed with hot oil and then transferred on a conveyor belt to the end of the fryer.
The fryer is equipped with a PID system to ensure constant heat.
The fryer is equipped with a protection system in the event of a power failure or interruption to enable the potatoes to be removed from the fryer even when there is no electricity, in order to ensure that the potatoes do not burn inside in the event of any malfunction or electrical technical defect.
The belt is equipped with a motor whose speed can be controlled by an inverter.
Easy opening for cleaning and maintenance.
There are drain holes for damaged oil.
One of the heaters damage protection system.
Electric compensation group system in order to reduce electricity consumption
Made of food grade 304 stainless steel.
Full heat insulation between the frypot and the outer body of the machine.

The vibrator is equipped with holes for draining unwanted pieces.
Made of food grade 304 stainless steel
14- Cooling process after frying:
By it, the potato fingers are cooled by passing them through a cooling tunnel with high pressure fans to reduce the temperature of the potato fingers in order to prepare their entry to the electrocution tunnel.
