The seamless integration of adjustable thickness control with traditional folding techniques results in lotus leaf buns that perfectly balance modern efficiency with time-honored craftsmanship.

Control Panel

The control panel of the lotus leaf bun machine is highly functional and user-friendly. It allows for precise adjustment of the time and speed of the dough pressing switch, with the speed ranging from 1 to 50, where a smaller number means slower and a larger number indicates faster. It also controls the forming switch, the return conveyor belt switch, and more, and is furnished with an emergency stop button. The dough feeding roller rack offers a continuous feeding process, with a three-stage progressive thinning to achieve a suitable thickness. The entire dough rolling procedure maintains the dough’s elasticity and original handmade flavor intact, without damaging the gluten, resulting in a shinier dough skin, more stable quality, and superior taste. Additionally, the control panel manages the whole machine switch, including the cutter switch and cutter speed, ensuring seamless operation throughout.

Dry Powder Functionality

The lotus leaf bun machine boasts an ingenious dry powder spreading function, a feature that significantly enhances the production process and final product quality. At the heart of this function is a well-designed dry powder box, which efficiently distributes a fine layer of powder over the dough, preventing it from sticking together during processing. This clever addition ensures that the lotus leaf buns can be easily uncovered after the crucial steps of oil brushing and steaming, maintaining their perfect shape and texture. The dry powder brush, a key component of this system, is crafted from food-grade nylon, embodying the perfect balance of functionality and safety. This choice of material is not only non-toxic and environmentally friendly but also exhibits exceptional durability. The brush’s outstanding elasticity and wear resistance guarantee consistent performance over time, resisting degradation and corrosion even under frequent use.

Oil Brushing Function

The lotus leaf bun machine is equipped with a remarkable oil brushing function. The oil brushing box is filled with edible oil which, through the oil brush and transparent food-grade hose, can evenly coat the dough. This not only prevents the lotus leaf cake from sticking on both sides but also, with the oil brushing and folding function, applies a thin and uniform layer of oil on the product’s surface. This helps the dough avoid adhering to machine parts, molds, or steamers, ensuring smooth and effortless operation. As a result, the product has uniform and delicate pores, high gluten content, excellent water retention, and a bright and delicate surface. The taste is smooth, shiny, and rich in gluten, maintaining the pure imitation of handmade craftsmanship and taste.

Stacking Device

The stacking device of the lotus leaf bun machine is truly an outstanding feature. When dealing with the dough, one can effortlessly loosen the screws on both sides and gently lower the oiling roller brush. With a bit of manual assistance, the dough can be neatly stacked. After that, the dough pressing pin is placed to secure the stacked dough. The remarkable thing about this stacking device is its adjustable nature through the regulator. It can be precisely turned up or down with ease. This flexibility allows for a seamless choice between single-sided products, achieved by simply flipping it up, or double-sided products, which is made possible by keeping it in the down position. Such freedom in configuration provides a great deal of convenience and customization, enabling the machine to adapt precisely to the diverse requirements and preferences of the user, ensuring an efficient and tailored dough handling experience.

Dough Pressing Roller

The dough pressing roller of the lotus leaf bun machine plays a crucial role. As the dough is conveyed through the roller by the drag rack, lowering the dough pressing roller comes into play. It effectively presses the dough skin, preventing it from shifting left and right, thereby ensuring more precise sizing and thickness of the lotus leaf pancake. Additionally, this roller has the ability to moderately adjust the thickness of the dough skin, enhancing the overall functionality and control of the machine’s operation.

Food Grade Conveyor Belt

The lotus leaf bun machine is outfitted with a remarkable food grade conveyor belt. This conveyor belt is not only of high quality but also adheres strictly to the highest food hygiene and safety standards.

The food grade conveyor belt, made of food grade material, ensures safety, hygiene, and health, along with stable production efficiency and durability. The speed of the roller for recycling dough can be easily adjusted according to the dough skin speed and product-making speed, simply by turning the knob. The remaining dough can be effectively recycled, and the pressed dough is sent back back to the dough hopper via the upper conveyor belt for reprocessing, minimizing waste and maximizing the value of food raw materials.

Custom Mold

The custom mold of the lotus leaf bun machine is truly a remarkable feature. It enables the replacement of pressing molding molds, which allows for the creation of cakes in different shapes and sizes. The molding plate is made of non-stick material, ensuring easy operation and installation, and it is not prone to rust or damage. By using different molds, a variety of items such as lotus leaf cakes, butterfly clips, meat sandwiches, moon buns, and more can be produced. The mold can be customized in various shapes and can be freely replaced. At the same time, the position of the mold can be simply adjusted by screws according to the size and position of the initial dough, so that it can adapt well to the position of the dough. With this custom mold, you have great flexibility and convenience in making different products.

 Dough Recycling System

The recycling of waste dough feature in the lotus leaf bun machine is truly fantastic. Any excess dough can be effortlessly and freely recycled for reuse. The rollers come into play to ensure that not a bit of dough goes to waste. The dough passes under the cutter, and once the cutter switch is turned on, the rolling pin steps in to recycle the scraps. In this ingenious way, the dough can be directly recycled, minimizing waste and maximizing the utilization of resources, providing both efficiency and practicality.

In conclusion, the lotus leaf bun machine stands as a testament to culinary innovation, seamlessly blending tradition with cutting-edge technology.
