Smoking Chambers

Cooking, Smoking and Drying Chambers

Our german made Chambers are designed according to the individual customer requirements. Our broad delivery spectrum offers our customers a choice between a wide variety of executions:

capacity of installation: 1 to 14 trolleys in one- or two-row execution
UNIGAR: single air system
GERMOS: central air system
UNIGAR: closed Circo-Smoke-System
GERMOS: open system
passing installations optionally
possible execution of doors: swing door with or without sight glass, lifting door
hot or cold smoke
can be combined with different smoke processes

All our installations are subject to the highest quality standards. We meet the regulations and standards of the food industry and use only high quality stainless steel (1.4301 up to 1.4571).

All our installations are equipped with state-of-the-art control technology and documentation systems. The efficiency of the installation can be evaluated at any time using our Energy-Management-System as an option.

Smoke Generators

Vapour Smoke Generator

Technical optimizations guarantee stable smoke quality, longevity and an easy application. Especially in industrial applications, the R60 has proven itself as a true workhorse. The humid smoke penetrates deeply into the product enabling an intense smoke taste and an uniform colour.

The most important advantages at a glance:

short smoking times
reduced loss of weight
very aromatic smoke flavour
uniform and stable smoke colour which will not fade-off when cooling or showering
dark smoke colours according to customers requirements
very small quantities of destructive substances because of low smoke generating temperatures
full smoke capacity within seconds
woodchips transport and precise portioning via stainless steel worm-gear
energy saving mode during non-operation times
due to the use of superheated water steam, there is no open flame in the smoke generator. Therefore, the smoke generator is not potentially explosive when used as intended (IBExU certificate).

Friction Smoke Generator

NESS smoke generators all work according to the same principle: only the quantity of smoke actually needed is generated to achieve the desired result. If the closed Circo-Smoke-System® is used, the consumption of smoking material can be reduced by up to 80 percent (compared to open systems). The result: less costs for smoking material, less pollution of the system and thus less cleaning efforts.

In this process, the smoke is generated by the friction of a wooden stick on a rotating body. A proven way to generate smoke, which is also suitable for cold smoke without cooling and which also has the following advantages:

generation of smoke at the lowest smoke generation temperature
- no creation of carcinogenic substances (or only minimum amounts)
- continuous adjustment of friction pressure with pneumatic feed of the pieces of timber for exact dosing of smoke quantity and density
- uniform smoke density and quantity of smoke per unit of time for precise determination of the smoke colour over the smoking time with optimized air flow
- smoke generation without waiting or pre-selection time
- easy to use and to maintain
- easy insertion of the pieces of timbers. Application of large format pieces of timber up to 8 x 8 x 100 cm for multiple batches without changing the wood pieces.
- as an option: magazine to load 4 pieces of timber for longer duration smoking processes

Sawdust Smoke Generator

NESS smoke generators all work on the same principle: only the quantity of smoke actually needed is generated to achieve the desired result. If the closed Circo-Smoke-System® is used, the consumption of smoking material can be reduced by up to 80 percent (compared to open systems). The result: less costs for smoking material, less pollution of the system and thus less cleaning efforts.

The smouldering of sawdust is the traditional method of producing smoke. Of course, this procedure also has its very specific advantages. Due to the rather soft mechanical processes inside, only a low power drive is necessary and the system runs very quietly. Sawdust is available practically everywhere with no effort and can be combined into individual chip mixtures to achieve very individual flavours.

low smoke generation temperature by means of special air supply at the smouldering plate
- if flamable gases are generated, these are reduced to absolutely harmless residual quantities already in the smoke generator by a special NESS process
- simple operation and easily accessible smouldering plate and smoking material container
- automatic cleaning of the smoke pipes
- automatic extinguishing system (in case of overtemperature)
- inspection glass in the door to check the smoke generation
- using large cylindric storage containers wit flat cottom, no residues will remain and there will be compression oft he smoking material
