As a well-known food machinery manufacturer in China, we could provide customers with nine types of automatic flat wafer production line. These wafer lines have various production capacities as a result of their different mould numbers, and the mould number includes 27, 33, 39, 45, 51, 63, 65, 69 and 75.
Detailed Information
1. The baking oven has 27-75 moulds, and the mould base is made from ductile iron, while the baking plates are constructed from heat-resisting cast iron. For baking plate, its standard size is 470×325mm, and it can be made to as large as 500×350mm. In addition, the power transmission mechanism and road wheels are patented in China, and the PID temperature controller is intended to adjust baking temperature to realize uniform wafer color.
2. For this wafer production line, its wafer batter mixer is completely manufactured from stainless steel, and it could process 50kg flour into batter just in 3 minutes. This device could be cleaned easily and rapidly with the help of water, and its blades adopt dynamic and static seals. Moreover, the electrical system has a protection level of IP55.
3. The batter storage tank is made from stainless steel, and it has a sandwich structure to cool batter by using cold water. This tank has a capacity of 0.5m3, and a stainless steel pneumatic diaphragm pump is utilized to transport batter.
4. The wafer sheet cooling machine is fabricated from stainless steel, and it is driven by an independent motor. Based on the shape, it is further divided into vertical type and archway type.
5. When it comes to wafer cream spreading machine, our flat wafer production line offers different choices.
a. Contact spreading machine: The machine frame is constructed from galvanized steel, and stainless steel plates are covered on the surface for better decoration effect. The spreading head has a composite structure to facilitate assembly and disassembly process, thus it is easy to clean. On the other hand, the laminating device reciprocates as driven by cylinders, and wafer sheets are held by single roller.
b. Film spreading machine: Cream or chocolate on the spreading roller is stripped off by a stripping knife so that cream films are continuously laid onto wafer sheets, just like curtains. In this way, cream is spread on wafer sheets rapidly and reliably, and cream films are of the same thickness regardless of wafer thickness variations. Moreover, the laminating device adopts rotary plug-in structure, and laminating step is not limited by cream thickness or wafer sheet number. The laminating roller is made from stainless steel for the purpose of easy cleaning, and wafer sheets are held by double rollers.
6. Our flat wafer production line uses a cooling cabinet to cool wafer biscuits. This freezer is constructed from stainless steel, while parts that will come into contact with wafer book are fabricated from SUS304. With cooling fan placed outside the freezer, the cabinet has a relative humidity of 55%.
7. When it comes to wafer cutting machine, it is classified into two models. The first model uses steel wire to cut wafer books, and the standard cutting speed is 8 books per minute. The second model uses blade, and its standard cutting speed is 10 books per minute though 17 books/min is also achievable by adopting special design.
8. The wafer cream mixer contains two types which are horizontal type and vertical type. The horizontal type requires manual cream transportation, while the vertical type makes use of a screw pump to deliver cream automatically.
Performance Requirement
The automatic flat wafer production line is actually a biscuit production system that is composed of different machines, but it must offer satisfying performance as regulated below.
1. After processed by wafer sheet picking machine, at least 98 percent of wafer sheets shall be in good condition, indicating that they should have clear pattern, uniform thickness, homogeneous color and plump shape.
2. When wafer sheets are on the wafer belt conveyor, 95 percent of them shall be in good shape, and the coating weight variation should be within ±3%.
3. This leisure food processing equipment shall offer a certain amount of wafer biscuits in a fixed time period. When producing 50g wafer book that is composed of 5 wafer sheets and 4 cream coatings, the production capacities of every wafer production line should be in accordance with the following table.
