Infrared cooking tunnels are ideal for processing thin products such as pancakes, blinis, cookies, and similar products. They provide a faster and more consistent heating phase compared to conventional ovens. The infrared cooking tunnels reduce time and energy required during the food cooking process.
Like all Chaudelec Systèmes Industriels infrared (IR) tunnels, the infrared cooking tunnels used in the food industry are unaffected by working conditions and can correct the convective part of any heat tunnel through the reaction of their emitters. The energy is delivered to the surface of the thin products at the right time. The pre-heating of the infrared tunnels is minimized, further improving efficiency.
In some applications, the cooking tunnels may consist of simple infrared panels located in an open space (radiant carousel cooking). The infrared cooking tunnels are highly evolutive and can be configured in multiple stages to meet specific production needs.
