High product quality for your local demand

Kuipers’ complete processing lines for various snacks are designed as a turnkey project and incorporated into a mainframe with two sidebars which gives the entire fryer plant a clean and safe design.

The sunflower seeds frying line is configured to ensure optimal heat distribution and heat treatment regardless of the type of snack you wish to process. This ensures the lowest possible Free Fatty Acid development and frying oil turnover time. It is especially designed with low heat load heat exchangers combined with constant removal of the dirt allowing the quality of the frying oil to remain adequate much longer than other conventional systems. This oil can then be used for a longer time period which saves processing costs drastically. It is also equipped with a centralised control panel which is embedded into a computer program and continuously communicates with the other control boards, thus checking and controlling all the process parameters.

The frying oil in the fryer can be heated either with thermal oil or electrical elements. The continuous frying lines can be customised and applied to process other snacks like onion, mash potato products, peanuts, shrimp crackers, mini croutons, samosas or corn nuts to cater to the local demands.

Technological challenges in seed processing

The two main processing methods for nuts methods for processing nuts are roasting or deep frying, the latter of which offers numerous advantages. The rapid heat transfer of hot oil shortens the frying time frying time, thereby increasing operational efficiency. In addition makes baking safer and longer lasting by reducing the risk of microbiological contamination. One of the most critical factors in industrial oil frying is the quality of the frying oil, which has a direct affect the taste, colour and texture of the final product. Maintaining oil qualit , it is essential to change the oil regularly and monitor the oil change cycle, i.e. the frying oil turnover time. This indicates how quickly the oil is refreshed the oil in the system is refreshed to avoid degradation and the accumulation of harmful substances. Processing peanuts is particularly challenging because the oil change time longer than for other snacks.

Kuipers innovations for more efficient oil frying

Kuipers’ revolutionary frying system enables snack manufacturers to reduce oil change time by up to 50%, thereby increasing operational efficiency. The developments are based on fluid dynamics optimisation, heat and mass transfer balance, and quality through FFA (free fatty acids) and TPM (total polar matter) levels. Kuipers’ new baking equipment reduces the amount of oil in the system by up to 40%, resulting in faster oil changes and a lower risk of breakdown, resulting in faster oil changes and a lower risk of degradation, directly improving the quality of the final product.

Advanced filtration and oil treatment technology

The small residues and combustion products generated during nut processing are quickly can contaminate the oil, shortening its service life. Kuipers has developed a specialised, optimised product delivery and filtration system.

• Patented delivery system: Effectively transports peanuts through the roaster while continuously removing unwanted particles.
• Special filtration technology: Filters the oil during each baking cycle, minimising the chance of degradation and oxidation.
• Automatic oil quality management: Continuously monitors FFA and TPM levels, ensuring that the oil stays fresh and usable for longer.

Nowadays, snack manufacturers are required to keep FFA concentrations below 2%, while TPM values must be monitored continuously. Since deterioration in oil quality directly affects the shelf life and taste of the product, Kuipers’ technologies help snack manufacturers ensure premium quality and reduce losses.

Sustainability and cost savings

Kuipers not only increases processing efficiency, but also provides significant annual savings for its customers. Thanks to the latest developments, larger plants can save tens of thousands of euros annually while reducing oil consumption and energy costs.
