Water Chilling Equipment
The Water Chilling Equipment controls the temperature of supplying water used for kneading flour. Usually, it consists of multiple water tanks made of stainless steel. Heating medium is filled between the tanks.
Supplied flour and water is kneaded with a rotary mixing blade. There are a batch type including vertical and horizontal type, and a continuous type with humidifier, depending on its body shape.
Supplied dough is extended by double roll units respectively composed of a pair of large-diameter rolls to make up two sheets of noodle. Then, they are compounded into one sheet by the next rolls.
Compound dough sheet is gradually rolled thinner by several roll units placed in series to make it proper thickness, and then cut it into noodle strips by the Cutting Roll Machine.
