BIG VOLUME COOKING

A conveyor oven is used in big restaurants and bakeries where a big volume of food products must be cooked or baked all at the same time. There are many types of industrial ovens, and a conveyor is one of the more popular ones in use.

A conveyor oven is not limited to baked goods such as bread and pizza. They can also be used to roast all kinds of meat products, and can be calibrated to cook at varied temperatures and cooking times.

The premise of a conveyor oven is in the movement of the food material as it is being cooked. The presence of a conveyor belt that constantly moves the food ensures maximum heat transfer and even cooking of the food. This is very important in the food business industry where producing standard and consistent food products are important. There is no need to watch the food because the calibration allows for even cooking that yields consistent results. This saves you on labor costs because all you have to do is load the food and watch it cook all by itself.

FOR HOME USE AS WELL

However, a conveyor oven is not limited to industrial or business use. You can have your own conveyor oven in the house if space allows for it. A surprising advantage of using a conveyor oven in the house is that it produces lesser heat than conventional house ovens we see in almost every home.

A conveyor oven produces less heat because the airflow is very controlled and focused. The airflow is directed to the food material and is insulated at all sides so minimal heat escapes into the ambient air. This can also save on utility costs because food is cooked faster when there is consistent application of heat. In this regard, a conveyor oven is much more energy efficient, and can save you on your utility bills.
