Flouring Machine (Drum Preduster)
Flour applicator with rotating drum for evenly coating meat, poultry and seafood products with dry flour or starchThe drum preduster is a flouring machine specially designed for meat, poultry, seafood, and frozen prepared foods. Its unique rotating drum structure ensures that products come into full contact with flour or pre-mix powders during operation, achieving uniform coating and enhancing both appearance and texture.

Features
- Modular design: Easy to clean, reduces dust leakage, and prevents environmental contamination.
- Equipped with an intelligent flour circulation and recovery system, the machine automatically collects and reuses excess coating powder that does not adhere to the product, reducing raw material loss by 15%–20%.
- A built-in real-time screening filter removes loose meat particles and flour lumps during powder recovery. Whether used for chicken strips, popcorn chicken, or fish fillets, the system helps maintain even, full-surface coating with consistent thickness.
- The flouring machine is built from food-grade SUS304 stainless steel and finished with high-precision polishing to reduce hard-to-clean areas. It can be cleaned directly with high-pressure water, helping shorten daily cleaning and maintenance time.
-
Vibrating conveyor beltActively driven belt removes excess loose flour for consistent coating.
-
Vibrating sifterSeparates large particles from damp flour, returning fine flour to the first predusting machine to form a closed-loop system.
-
Motor protectionBuilt-in temperature sensors and overload protection automatically cut power or reduce speed if the motor is overloaded (e.g., jammed) or overheated, preventing motor damage.
-
Drum interiorMade of food-grade 304 stainless steel (polished, no sharp edges). The drum rotates at low speed (typically adjustable), moving products inside in a combined “rolling + sliding” motion to ensure full contact with flour, breadcrumbs, or pre-mix powder, avoiding common manual flouring issues such as uneven coating, clumping, or exposed surfaces.
-
Industrial Waterproof PlugThe plug complies with the IEC 60309 standard. It uses a high-strength engineering plastic housing and a screw-lock sealed structure, providing splash resistance and protection during high-pressure washdown. It also helps keep the internal connection dry in humid, steam-rich processing environments.
-
Independent VFD Motor ControlThe motor is independently controlled by a variable frequency drive. The core circuit board is protected with a heavy-duty industrial anti-corrosion coating, helping protect the system in high-humidity food-processing environments.
-
Vertical Screw Discharge OutletThe vertical screw discharge and flour recovery system automatically recovers excess coating powder that has not adhered to the product, helping reduce powder waste and lower production costs.
