The frozen potato production line is a highly automated food processing system that transforms fresh potatoes into tasty fries or chips through a series of precise steps. Lonkia frozen potato production line not only improves production efficiency, but also ensures the quality and taste of the product. In this article, we will explain in detail how each step of the process works, from washing to freezing.
Potato cleaning and peeling: ensuring the purity of the raw material
In the first step of the frozen potato production line, Lonkia potato washing machine thoroughly cleans the surface of the potatoes from dirt and impurities by means of a high-pressure water stream. After washing, the potatoes enter the peeling machine, where mechanical peeling technology is used to remove the skin quickly and efficiently, ensuring that no useful part of the potato is wasted. Lonkia offers both steam peelers and brush peeling machines to help peel potatoes efficiently while maintaining their integrity and form.
Slicing and blanching: maintaining uniform cut and flavor
After being cleaned and peeled, the potatoes go to the slicer for cutting, where Lonkia vegetable cutting machines utilize high-precision blades that cut the potatoes evenly to the right thickness, ensuring consistent quality from chip to chip or fry to fry. The sliced potatoes then go through a hot water rinsing process, which removes excess starch and ensures a crispy product.
Frying: the key to perfect crispiness
Frying is a crucial step in the production of French fries and potato chips, and Lonkia continuous fryers utilize advanced temperature control technology to ensure that the oil temperature is constant, so that each piece of potato chip or French fry is evenly fried, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and maintains a perfect texture. The entire frying process can be adjusted as needed in terms of time and temperature to achieve optimal frying results.
Freezing: Locking in freshness and flavor
After frying, the French fries and potato chips enter the freezer, which quickly cools down and locks in their crispy texture. By freezing, the product stays fresh for a long time and is also easy to pack and store afterwards. The freezing process ensures that the appearance and texture of the fries and chips remain consistent, making them suitable for mass production and long term storage.
Lonkia frozen potato production lines utilize state-of-the-art equipment and efficient automated control systems at every step of the process, from washing to freezing, to ensure the efficiency of the entire production process and the high quality of the product. If you want to improve production efficiency and ensure product quality, Lonkia French fries production line will be your best choice.
