Definitions

  • savory snack packaging machines such as bagging machines
  • a given packaging rate which is defined as number of packages that come out of the machine per unit of time, corresponding to a nominal operation rate of the machine, optimal for the process.
  • the nominal packaging rate is selected to be compatible with the output volume of fried products exiting the continuous-flow fryer, considering the configuration of the production and packaging apparatus, for example depending on the number of the fried product conveyor lines that branch off the conveyor line for product removal from the fryer.
  • opening mechanism can be selectively actuated to form openings to the feed conveyor lines 15-18, including the case in which openings to all feed conveyor lines 15-18 may be actuated.
  • Figure 1 shows an exemplary operating state, in which the distribution conveyor line conveys fried snacks to the last feed line 18 only.
  • a nominal value of material level is stored in the control unit, and is preferably associated with a nominal value of fried product production rate, R n .
