3. Centrifugal De-Oiling Machine
After frying, banana chips are placed into the perforated stainless-steel basket of the centrifugal de-oiling machine. High-speed rotation helps remove excess surface oil from the fried chips before seasoning.
This step prepares the chips for more uniform seasoning and reduces excessive oil remaining on the product surface.
4. Octagonal Seasoning Machine![Banana chips seasoning machine for mixing salt sugar and flavor powder evenly]( "Banana Chips Seasoning Machine")
The fried and de-oiled banana chips are transferred into the octagonal seasoning drum. During rotation, the chips continuously tumble inside the drum while seasoning powder is added, helping distribute flavor more evenly across the product surface.
