Continuous industrial cookers

The continuous industrial cooker designed in Parma at Tecninox offers highly customised solutions in the cooking of a wide range of food products, including vegetables, pulses and fruit and vegetable purees. 

Thanks to the diversity of models available, each stage of the cooking process can be optimised to specifically meet the needs of the product being processed. This ensures not only cooking precision and uniformity, but also high quality of the final product, reducing production time and improving overall processing efficiency.
 

Industrial cookers - Types
 

Belt cookers

Tecninox belt cookers are designed for the continuous cooking of vegetables and leafy products that require uniform and gentle heating.

The cooking cycle uses a conveyor belt, ensuring even product heating. Once the cooking process is complete, the product is directly transferred to a dedicated cooling unit, ensuring efficient process management. The cooking water is heated using indirect steam, preserving the product's quality and organoleptic characteristics.

Drum cookers

Drum cookers are specifically designed for cooking legumes, vegetables, and other solid products that require more intensive treatment and longer cooking times.

Thanks to the rotating drum, even heat distribution, and a water circulation system, this cooker ensures complete and uniform cooking, ensuring that even the densest products achieve the right texture and flavour.

Trough cookers

Trough cookers are perfect for cooking and mixing semi-dense or liquid products, such as fruit purees, vegetables, and sauces.

Equipped with a steam-heated cylindrical vat, it ensures uniform heating, while continuous agitation via a screw auger prevents burning.

The cooking cycle is customizable to meet production needs, and the cooker is available in various sizes to accommodate different production volumes.

Cooking basin

Tecninox cooking basin is designed for preparing sauces, ragouts, and other similar products.

Equipped with a dual heating system, using both steam and electric resistances, it ensures uniform heat distribution. Additionally, the motorized agitation prevents product from sticking to the bottom, reducing the risk of burning. This cooking basin is available in various capacities, ranging from 70 to 1500 liters, to meet diverse production needs.
