Industrial Sandwich Pancake & Dorayaki Production Line
In an era where snack trends prioritize both culinary creativity and high-volume consistency, the Protrus Sandwich Pancake Production Line stands as the definitive solution for modern food manufacturers. This fully automated system is precision-engineered to transform traditional batter into a wide array of premium products—ranging from classic single-layer pancakes to intricately filled and sealed sandwich pancakes, such as the world-renowned Japanese dorayaki.
Engineered for Precision and Performance
By integrating high-efficiency baking, synchronized filling, and modular sealing units into one compact platform, Protrus empowers your facility to scale production sustainably while maintaining the delicate texture and appearance consumers demand.
- Exceptional Throughput: Achieve industrial-scale efficiency with capacities ranging from 4,000 to 14,000 sandwiches per hour, with the ability to double output for single-layer pancake production.
- Modular Versatility: Our “One Line – Endless Possibilities” philosophy allows for a customizable configuration; start with a core oven unit and seamlessly add sandwiching, printing, or double-filling modules as your market expands.
- Precision Baking Technology: Equipped with high-conductivity copper plates and infrared temperature sensors, the line ensures even heat distribution and a perfectly smooth, golden-brown surface for every pancake.
- Integrated Branding & Customization: The quick-swap printing unit allows for high-definition logos or visuals to be applied directly onto the product surface, enhancing brand recognition and retail appeal.
- Certified Hygienic Design: Built with a stainless steel frame and CE-certified components, our systems are engineered for easy sanitation, featuring retractable units that simplify deep cleaning and maintenance protocols.
Versatile Production Capabilities
The Protrus line is designed to handle a diverse range of recipes and formats. Whether your target market demands sweet cream-filled snacks, savory breakfast options, or extended shelf-life retail products, our system adapts to your specific batter viscosity and filling requirements.
Sealed Sandwich Pancakes: Utilizing a specialized press unit to lock fillings inside, preventing leakage and ensuring a premium “hand-held” snack experience.
Single-Layer Pancakes: Standard golden-brown pancakes for foodservice or retail packs.
Classic Sandwich Pancakes (Dorayaki): Two layers perfectly aligned with a central filling of cream, chocolate, jam, or bean paste.
Technical Excellence & Automation
At the heart of our production line is a commitment to precision engineering. The system features a continuous traveling conveyor that eliminates the vibration and noise typical of intermittent systems, ensuring a stable environment for delicate dough deposition.
- Baking Station: High-efficiency gas or electric heaters, paired with top-mounted far-infrared units, cook the pancake thoroughly before flipping.
- Synchronized Sandwiching: Fully automated flipping and alignment units ensure the upper and lower cakes are perfectly matched before sealing.
- Advanced Control Systems: A user-friendly touch-screen interface allows operators to fine-tune baking times (typically 100–120 seconds), griddle speed, and depositor positioning with digital accuracy.
