What are contact grills and Teflon grills?
Contact grills, also known as contact cookers or Teflon grills, are industrial grills that continuously cook food between two heated belts. This process ensures a highly efficient heat transfer through direct contact with the product.
In this technology, the product is simultaneously heated from the top and bottom, resulting in:
- even cooking
- perfect browning
- retention of flavor and juices
- high production speed
This method of contact cooking is particularly suitable for:
- meat and poultry products
- burgers and shaped products
- fish products
- plant-based alternatives
- bacon and flat products
The technology uses direct heat transfer between two surfaces, which is one of the most efficient ways to cook food.
Continuous grills: efficient and industrial baking
An important feature of contact grills and Teflon grills is that they are continuous grills. This means that products are automatically transported through the machine between two belts.
How does a contact frying line work?
A contact frying line:
- transports products via a belt system
- cooks products between an upper and lower belt
- uses high temperatures (up to ±260°C)
- offers adjustable cooking time and belt speed
Thanks to this technology, producers can:
- process large volumes
- guarantee consistent quality
- operate energy-efficiently
- automate production
The continuous nature makes these machines ideal for industrial production environments where speed and uniformity are crucial.
