MOTOR GEAR BRAISING PAN

Braising is a combination slow-cooking method using both wet and dry heat. The long, slow cook time helps develop flavor and tenderizes even the toughest meats. Braising is accomplished using an over or range, or for high volume production in the commercial foodservice industry, specially designed convection ovens and powered braising pans are used.

Gear motors are used to power conveyor belts in food preparation equipment, such as ovens and fryers, or to drive the gears that rotate equipment like mixers, beater, and grinders. They can also be used to power the drive mechanisms for commercial refrigeration units and freezers, and to control the speed of fans and ventilation systems.

Motors are used in all kinds of foodservice equipment to power beaters, blenders, slicers, basket lifts, filters, fans and much more. A motor converts one form of energy into mechanical energy. General-purpose motor designs with standard dimensions and characteristics provide convenient mechanical power for foodservice equipment once customized to the exact OEM specifications (RPM, torque, magnet dimension, winding, etc.).

Different types of motors are used in restaurant equipment, including AC motors, DC motors, and stepper motors. AC motors are used to power equipment that requires high torque, such as mixers, grinders and ice machines. DC motors are used in equipment that requires precise control, such as conveyor belts and automated food prep machines. Stepper motors are used in equipment that requires precise positioning, such as robot arms and automated food dispensers.
