A complete set of automatic potato chip processing line finished factory functional testing and heavy‑duty export packaging. The whole production system has been loaded into container and shipped to Malawi.
All food‑contact components adopt 304 stainless steel, covering core working procedures from raw material cutting, conveying, frying, de‑oiling to drum seasoning. This equipment will support the customer’s local snack factory to produce commercial‑grade potato chips.
Customer background and local snack‑making demands
The Malawian customer runs a medium‑size local food‑processing factory. Potatoes are widely planted in surrounding rural areas, while pre‑packaged crispy potato‑chip snacks have strong market demand.
To expand his snack‑product business, the customer decided to invest in a continuous automatic chip‑making solution. After checking equipment configurations and technical documents, he confirmed the order for our automatic potato chip processing line.
Main composition of the automatic potato chip processing line
这 全自动薯片加工线 integrates multiple standalone units for continuous chip production. Key food‑touching parts are made of 304 stainless steel to meet food‑hygiene requirements. Major included machines are listed below:
- SL‑300 土豆切丝机: dimension 750*520*900 mm, weight 75 kg, power 0.75 kW, performs precise potato slicing.
- Bucket elevator: power 0.75 kW, responsible for stable material transfer between different processing stations.
- Continuous frying unit: spraying power 0.55 kW, belt width 800 mm, electric‑heating design for even frying effect.
- Auxiliary conveying unit: power 1.5 kW, 304 stainless‑steel contact parts.
- Drum seasoning machine: 3 fans, total power 2.25 kW; drum size: length 1800 mm, diameter 700 mm, power 1.1 kW, evenly applies seasoning onto fried chips.
- SL‑400 deoiling machine: dimension 900*550*700 mm, weight 120 kg, power 0.75 kW, removes excess surface oil from finished chips.
- Post‑seasoning machine: drum diameter 700 mm, drum length 1500 mm, equipped with material‑spreading function.
Each machine matches well with others to realize streamlined chip‑making workflow.
Pre‑shipment inspection and technical communication
In early‑stage communication, our engineers learned about the customer’s factory layout, local power condition and target finished‑product standards. We adjusted machine parameters accordingly.
The full line completed running test inside our workshop before packing. We checked cutting performance, frying status, de‑oiling effect and seasoning uniformity. Test photos and videos were sent for customer confirmation before shipment.
Export packing and container loading scene
All individual automatic potato chip processing line machines went through anti‑rust and dust‑proof treatment. Precision motors, control cabinets and stainless‑steel assemblies got extra shock‑resistant wrapping.
Each main unit and loose spare accessories were packed into marked heavy‑duty export wooden cases. All cargo was firmly fixed inside shipping container to avoid collision damage in long‑distance ocean transportation. Our team recorded the whole loading procedure via photos and videos and shared these records with the customer.
Comprehensive after‑sales technical support
Our technical team provides online remote guidance for equipment assembly, parameter adjustment, daily cleaning and simple fault troubleshooting. Long‑term supply of wearing spare parts is guaranteed to keep stable snack production for the Malawian food factory.
