COOKING · THERMAL PROCESSING · CORE TEMPERATURE

Precise cooking processes. Reproducible for every batch.

SORGO cooking systems are designed for each project to suit the product, trolley format, capacity and available heat supply. Cooking also remains a standard process of the SORGO hot-smoking system.

PROCESS CONTROL

Cooking and thermal processing. According to the process.

Cooking and thermal processing are separate functions. The function used depends on the product, process and system configuration.

Loading

Load the products on their trolley.

Cooking

Cook products under controlled conditions.

Thermal processing

Thermal processing suited to the product and configuration.

Core temperature

Until the desired target is reached.

Unloading

Remove the products from the system.

YOUR BENEFITS

Uniform results. High product yield.

One fan per trolley position

Each trolley position has its own fan motor with a stainless steel impeller manufactured in-house by SORGO.

Uniform throughout the trolley

Air distribution is designed for comparable results at the top, bottom, centre, left and right of the trolley.

Targeted maintenance

Individual fans can be serviced separately and replaced when required.

KONSTRUKTION & HYGIENE

Hygienic construction. Matched to your process.

The construction is hygienic, robust and easy to service, tailored to the planned cooking process.

01Interior and floor

Stainless steel 1.4571 (V4A) for the system interior and internal floor.

02Exterior cladding

Stainless steel 1.4301 (V2A) for the system exterior.

03Project-specific design

Trolley count, row arrangement, trolley dimensions and door configuration form the basis of the detailed construction.

HEATING

The right heating system for your operation.

HP steam, electric or gas/oil – matched to your energy supply and processes.

HP steam

HP STEAM HEATING

HP steam coil manufactured in-house.

The SORGO-manufactured HP steam coil in 1.4301 stainless steel transfers heat from the heating steam to the circulating process air. The spiral-finned tubes provide a particularly large heat transfer surface. This gives the coil significantly higher efficiency than a design using smooth tubes.

Material: Stainless steel 1.4301
Manufacturing: In-house manufacturing

Electric

ELECTRIC HEATING

Electric heating coil in the upper section of the system.

The electric heating coil is made entirely of high-quality 1.4876 chromium-nickel steel and is installed in the upper section of the system. It transfers electrically generated heat to the circulating process air.

Material: Chromium-nickel steel 1.4876
Installation location: Upper part of the system

Gas/oil

GAS AND OIL HEATING

Heat exchanger manufactured in-house.

The tubular heat exchanger is manufactured by SORGO from heat-resistant, thick-walled 1.4876 stainless steel and installed in the upper section of the system. Depending on the configuration, heating is provided by a high-performance gas burner or an oil burner.

Heat is transferred through the tube surfaces to the circulating process air. The design aims for high efficiency and low flue gas temperatures. Heating can thus be matched to the gas or oil supply available at the facility.

Material: Stainless steel 1.4876
Gas or oil burner: With a high-performance gas burner or an oil burner

OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT

Add precisely what your process requires.

Cooling shower

A standard cooling shower is available as an option. Active blast chilling is not part of the cooking system.

Two-fluid atomising nozzle

A two-fluid atomising nozzle can optionally be provided for each trolley position.

CIP cleaning

The CIP system is optional. One cleaning station can clean several connected systems sequentially; the CIP pipes are not insulated.

OPTIONAL CIP CLEANING

Fully automatic CIP cleaning

Available as an option. The programme-controlled system performs cleaning, contact time and fresh-water rinsing of the system.

01Central cleaning station
One central station supplies several connected systems and cleans them automatically in sequence.
02Adjustable dosing
Cleaning agent dosing can be adjusted from 1 to 10%.
03Pressure boosting
A powerful stainless steel pump provides a cleaning pressure of approximately 10 bar. This makes the system independent of the customer's mains water pressure.
04Automatic fresh-water rinsing
After cleaning and contact time, the system automatically rinses with clean water.

CONTROL & DOCUMENTATION

INSTALLATION & SYSTEM FLOOR

Three floor designs.

Matched to installation, loading and hygiene requirements.

01Installation on standard floorSimplest building preparation

The chamber is installed on a finished production floor with sufficient load-bearing capacity. An entry lip is used or a suitable entry plate manufactured to ensure a safe transition.

Simplest building preparation

02Recessed and flush with floor levelEasy entry for heavy trolleys

The system is recessed into an opening in the production floor and precisely levelled using four adjustment screws. The full area beneath the system floor is then filled with fluid concrete. The upper surface of the system floor is flush with the production floor, allowing loading trolleys to be pushed in easily.

Easy entry for heavy trolleys

03Hygienic floor with underfloor cleaningMaximum hygiene and cleanability

A robust system floor with a sealed welded underside stands on adjustable feet in a hygienic tray. Two upward-facing cleaning nozzles specifically rinse the area beneath the system floor.

Maximum hygiene and cleanability

All three floor variants can optionally be reinforced for heavy loads of up to 3 tonnes per trolley position.
