Today we take an in-depth look at the fully automatic American-style spherical popcorn machine and complete production line developed by Shandong Longze Machinery Co., Ltd. Equipped with a Siemens PLC control system and touch screen interface, this advanced equipment realizes intelligent and fully automated production, making it ideal for commercial popcorn factories, snack food processors, and large chain brands.
In addition to popcorn machines, Longze also offers a wide range of kitchen processing equipment such as jacketed kettles, steam boiling pots, frying kettles, filling mixers, horizontal fryers, and electromagnetic heating kettles, meeting diverse food processing needs.
American Ball Popcorn Machine Product Parameters:
| Pseudolaric acid | control method | Heating method | Product Material | temperature sensor | Mixing form | Pot Diameter |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ball Popcorn Machine | automatization/PLC Programming | Liquefied gas/electromagnetic | SUS304 | infrared ray | Planets/scrape bottom | 700mm |
Key Features:
1. Fully Automatic Operation, Reducing Labor Costs
The entire popcorn production line achieves end-to-end automation from raw material feeding to finished product discharge, minimizing manual intervention, improving efficiency, and reducing operational costs.
2. Dual Heating Options: Gas / Electromagnetic
Equipped with both liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and electromagnetic heating options, users can choose based on their energy supply setup. This ensures fast heating while remaining environmentally friendly and energy-efficient.
3. Siemens PLC Control System
Featuring a Siemens PLC programmable controller and HMI (Human-Machine Interface), the system supports multi-stage recipe settings including temperature, time, stirring speed, and power output. All parameters can be saved to ensure consistent product quality across batches.
4. High-Performance Materials & Safety Design
- The pot body is made of SUS304 stainless steel, corrosion-resistant and easy to clean.
- Stirring blades are made of PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), heat-resistant up to 280°C, non-toxic, odorless, and food-grade compliant.
- With a diameter of 700mm and a 90° tilting function, the pot allows for easy discharging and cleaning.
5. High Output Capacity
Each batch produces approximately 5kg of popcorn in just 4 minutes, with a high balling rate, making it suitable for continuous large-scale production.
6. Versatile Application
This machine is not only suitable for popcorn but also ideal for processing peanut candy, bean paste fillings, pastry fillings, and other delicate food items — a multifunctional, cost-effective solution for modern food manufacturing.
