We offer a range of different sized PEF systems with varying line capacity. In addition, we provide a design and build service to customize Elea PEF technology to your specific requirements.
Elea PEF Advantage benefits for potato chips
Pulsed Electric Field gently opens the pores in the potatoes cell membrane, transforming the products structure. It’s a clean, gentle, targeted process. After treatment the raw material is smoother, softer and has better strength and flexibility.
Better colour and less browning for batch and continuous
An optimized frying process with lower temperatures results in colour improvements.
Cutting force reduction with PEF of up to 50% for batch and continuous
The PEF induced open cell structure and water release softens the raw material making cutting easier.
Longer knife durability for batch and continuous
The softer PEF treated potato results in easier cutting and increased knife durability.
Improved texture and crispiness for batch and continuous
Enhanced water release and homogeneous starch gelatinization lead
to an improved crunch and mouthfeel.
