3. Mochi Ice Cream Production Process
Mochi Dough Preparation: The YC-135 Steamer Generator provides stable steam (34kg/h, 171°C), while the YC-136 Rice Flour Mixing and Evaporating Steamer mixes and heats rice flour at 15-45r/min, producing elastic dough.
Molding: The YC-170 Automatic Encrusting Machine wraps ice cream fillings with mochi dough, adjusting weight (10-100g) and ensuring uniform skin-to-filling ratio.
Flour Coating: The YC-23 Imitate Handmade Flour Coating Machine uses double-row atomization to evenly dust the mochi surface, with adjustable speed to avoid adhesion.
Automatic Tray Aligning: Custom plastic trays are automatically fed one by one. The YC-150 arranges mochi into trays (4/6/8/10/12 pieces per tray) in straight, dot, or interlaced modes.
Post-Processing: The tray-filled mochi is directly transferred to an automatic freezer for quick freezing or connected to a modified atmosphere packaging machine for sealing, completing the fully automated production.
