Friction Smoke Generator

Ness FR series friction smoke generator. Friction smoke generation is achieved by grinding a wooden log against a special rotating wheel. These are the particular advantages of this method that has been developed in-house: Lowest smoke production temperature of all the methods for smoke generation As a result the valuable, taste-forming aromatic materials of the wood remain intact Carcinogenic materials are not produced, or only in negligible quantities. Suitable for cold smoking without cooling in a lot of coutries. The pressure exerted by the wooden log is controlled pneumatically and is continuously adjustable. As a result the volume and density of the smoke can be adjusted simply and precisely. Almost no dirt deposits in the smoke-pipes. As a result only low cleaning resource required. No possibility of explosive combustion. Smoke production without oxygen for closed circuit chambers. The wooden log is totally consumed without ash waste or residues. Smoke production is instant at the touch of a button with no waiting or pre-ignition time, No smoke production after shut-down. Always the same volume and density of smoke during the programme, smoke colour can be precisely determined over the smoking period. Sealed housing with sound insulation. As a result no smoke exiting from the smoke generator and comparatively quiet smoke production. Good access for installation of the wooden logs with simple operation, cleaning and maintenance. Use of large wooden logs 8 cm square x 100 cm long, allows several smoking processes without having to change over the logs, with the FR 600/100, or can be fitted with a magazine for 3 logs of the same size allowing more longer smoking processes, between changes with the FR 800/300. With the new twin friction smoke generator FR 1600/6 now with 2 magazines for totally 6 logs. Long operational life for the friction wheels, approx. 1 – 2 years, as a result of a particularly sturdy design and optimised guidance of the air in the smoke generator. Automatic cleaning of the smoke pipes and smoke generator.
