Instant Noodle Making Machine

- An Introduction To Heshan® Ramen Noodle Making Machinery

In every step of the production process, Heshan noodle machinery uses advanced technology. There are two major types of instant noodle processing lines: one uses the deep frying process and the complete set of noodle making machine is known as fried instant noodle production line; the other uses hot air drying process and the noodle line is called non-fried instant noodle production line. On the other hands, dry rice vermicelli noodles are always produced using hot air drying methods. Heshan is one of the earliest manufacturers to provide automatic instant rice vermicelli noodle production line. If the wet fresh noodles, usually refrigerated are to be sold directly, you can use our fresh instant noodle production line.

Fried Instant Ramen Noodle Making Machine

▶️ Fried Instant Ramen Noodle Making Machine

We are fried instant noodl making machine manufacturer and our machines use high temperature to fry the noodles to remove moisture, making it possible to completely dehydrate the noodles. Moreover, after frying, it also forms a sort of micro-structure on the surface of the noodles, so that the dry noodles are easier to rehydrate when they are brewed in hot water. We have built many turnkey plants with our instant noodle making machine installed in China, India and all over the world.

Features Of The Heshan® Fried Instant Noodle Processing Machines:

• Fully automatic control system using Siemens PLC.

• Vacuum or normal pressure dough mixers available according to customers' requirement.

• Each pair of compound rollers and continuous rollers is individually controlled by PLC.

• Single layer or multi-layer noodle steamers are available according to customers' requirement.

• Efficient frying oil circulation and proper temperature zoning to produce perfect dehydrated noodles of proper micro-structure.

• Fully automatic cup/bag noodle packaging lines are available.

• The Heshan® fried instant noodle processing machine assembly makes up to a million cups/packs of noodles per day.

Heshan® instant noodle production line is a complete set of highly automatic noodle processing machine that can produce up to a million cups or bags of instant noodles per day. Only two operators are needed to run a Heshan instant noodle production line.

Both fried instant noodles and non-fried instant noodles must go through the pressing and cutting process during the production process. However, the difference in the final drying method creates the distinction between "fried" and "non-fried". Fried instant noodles are made by steaming and frying shredded noodles to fix the shape of the noodles; non-fried instant noodles are generally made by micro-expanding or hot air drying processes.

From the perspective of production process, the difference between fried and non-fried instant noodle processing is mainly reflected in the "drying" process. The former is frying while the latter uses hot air drying process.

In terms of texture and taste, fried instant noodles, after rehydration have a soft texture and rich flavor; non-fried instant noodles have a light texture and are not oily when eaten. The main nutrients in instant noodles are carbohydrates and protein. Whether it is fried instant noodles or non-fried instant noodles, there is not much difference in the content of these two categories; but there is a difference in moisture content and fat content. The moisture content of fried instant noodles is less than 10% and the fat content is about 20%; the moisture content of non-fried instant noodles is about 14.5% and the fat content is 4%-5%.

Dried Instant Ramen Noodle Making Machine

▶️ Pressure Precooked Dried Hakka Noodle Line

We built several turnkey plants of this type in India and Germany.

Heshan is one of the earliest non-fried instant noodle making machine manufacturer. The processing line uses hot air to "blow-dry" the precooked noodles instead of frying them. We provide two types of non-fried instant noodle making machines: one with a drying temperature of around 80 degrees Celsius, used to produce easy-to-cook instant noodles, and the other uses specially designed steaming and drying process to produce instant noodles that can be rehydrated and ready to eat by soaking the dry noodle block in hot water for 5 minutes.

Features of Heshan® heated-air-dried instant noodle line:

• Optional Pressure Cooking Process to improve the product texture and palatability.

• Fully automatic control system using Siemens PLC.

• Non-fried instant noodles are better for health.

• Hot air dehydration does not require cooking oil, the production cost is relatively low, and there is no problem of oxidation and deterioration of oil components during the storage period of instant noodles.

• Mechanical vibrating dough blocks are automatically shaped or pneumatic dough blocks are automatically shaped, which saves a lot of manpower in manually sorting the dough blocks before drying.

• The entire production process is highly automated.

The non-fried dry hakka instant noodle making machine assembly features the batch high pressure steaming unit operation consists of the steps of dough kneading, dough setting, compound and continuous dough sheet rolling/pressing, noodle strips slitting, noodle strips length cutting and noodle blocks boxing, steaming trays stacking, batch pressure cooking, heated-air-drying, cooling, finally packaging. The complete set of the hakka noodle making machine is either fully automated such as dough making and noodle strips cutting, or manually assisted mechanized operation like the loading the layer stacks of noodle tray arrays into the pressure cookers.

In the dry hokka noodle production line, flour and water are mixed, and after automatic dough making, dough resting, compound pressing and continuous rolling to form the dough sheet, which is cut into noodle shreds and automatically put inside the plastic boxes; after stacking, they are sent into the high pressure steamers of the instant noodle making machine assembly. After steaming for 2 or 3 Minutes, the stretchiness and flexibility of the steamed noodles are significantly increased and products are more thoroughly sterilized, extending the shelf life. After the noodles are steamed, they are placed in the metal noodle boxes, which carry the noodles into the heated-air dryer for drying. The drying time is about 40 minutes. Output capacity of one hakka instant noodle dryer is from 250 kg to 1200 kg per hour.

Due to the use of autoclave cooking unit in the instant noodle processing machine assembly, the degree of starch ɑ gelatinization is effectively improved. Therefore, the resulting products have a beautiful appearance, slightly yellowish and semitransparent; the re-hydrated or cooked noodles are very appetizing because they have an elastic and refreshing texture; and the noodle soup is not turbid.

Extrusion process is suitable to process almost all grains to make Asian glass vermicelli noodles and wheat ramen noodles. Heshan® Pasta Extruders are with the fast remount die plate that can be replaced within 15 minutes. They are suitable for making starch/rice vermicelli noodles, wheat ramen noodles and Italian durum wheat semolina spaghetti and macaroni pasta. There is a trend in China to use extrusion process to make non-fried instant noodles. The extruded non-fried instant noodles are positively accepted in the market, made by instant noodle production line featuring extrusion technology.

The die plates of the extruders of our rice vermicelli machines and wheat noodle machines can be quickly disassembled and assembled from the side installation port. Most our competitors require manual removal of several screws from the bottom before the rice noodle making machine die plate can be removed. Disassembly and assembly are very labor-intensive (it takes about 1 Hour). Our rice noodle making machine extruders are equiped with an easy-to-pull-out die plate and a special pulling-out-mechanism that can automatically replace the rice noodle making machine extruder die plate. The procedure can be completed in about 10 minutes. The rice noodle making machine extruder dies are often clogged with the feed debris so that die plate needs to be replaced regularly. Therefore, rice noodle factories urgently need to solve this problem. Our rice noodle extruders with the easy-to-pull-out die plates were developed under this situation.
