      The Complete Production Process (Step-by-Step):

      Our Potato Wafer Plant integrates a series of specialized machines to ensure a streamlined and efficient manufacturing workflow:

      1. Potato Receiving & Storage: Raw potatoes are delivered and stored efficiently.
      2. Elevating & Feeding: Potatoes are automatically conveyed to the first processing stage.
      3. Washing: High-pressure washing removes dirt, soil, and impurities from the potato surface, ensuring hygiene.
      4. Peeling: Abrasive or brush-type peelers efficiently remove potato skins with minimal waste.
      5. Inspection & Trimming: An inspection conveyor allows manual removal of any remaining eyes, blemishes, or damaged potatoes.
      6. Slicing: Precision slicers cut potatoes into uniform, thin wafers of desired thickness (e.g., 1.5-2.5mm), crucial for consistent frying.
      7. Rinsing / Blanching: Wafers are rinsed in water to remove excess starch, preventing sticking and ensuring a crispier final product. Blanching may be included for specific texture requirements.
      8. Dewatering / Vibrating Screen: Removes surface water from the blanched wafers, reducing oil absorption during frying and improving crispness.
      9. Frying: A continuous deep-frying system (oil bath) cooks the wafers to golden perfection. Features include automatic temperature control, continuous oil filtration, and sediment removal for extended oil life.
      10. De-oiling: A vibrating de-oiler or centrifugal spinner gently removes excess oil from the fried wafers, making them healthier and less greasy.
      11. Seasoning / Flavoring: Wafers are conveyed into a rotating seasoning drum where a fine mist or powder of various spices and flavors is evenly applied.
      12. Cooling: A cooling conveyor brings the seasoned wafers down to ambient temperature, preparing them for packaging and preventing condensation.
      13. Packaging: Wafers are automatically weighed (e.g., using a multi-head weigher) and sealed into bags by a Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS) machine, ensuring freshness and extended shelf life.
