This CFS STS Oven is a spiral steam tunnel, a continuous thermal processing machine used in food production lines to cook, heat, or pasteurise products as they travel along a moving belt through a steam-filled enclosure. CFS, or Convenience Food Systems, was a well-established Dutch manufacturer of food processing equipment, supplying spiral cookers, slicers, portioning machines, and related systems to the meat, poultry, and convenience food industries worldwide.
Built in 1999 and currently located in the Netherlands, this used machine carries the type designation STS600/8/130. The belt is 600 mm wide and runs to a total length of 60 m, arranged in a two-stack spiral configuration of 2 × 4 tiers. The product gap is 130 mm, determining the clearance available for the food products passing through. Retention time is adjustable across a broad range, from 2.9 to 29 minutes, giving operators significant flexibility in matching throughput speed to the thermal requirements of different products.
Steam is supplied via an NW40 connection at a working pressure of 4 to 8 bar. Ventilation is handled by two exhaust channels each rated at 2,000 m³/h, for a combined extraction capacity of 4,000 m³/h. Compressed air requirements are 6 to 8 bar. Electrical supply is three-phase 400 V at 50 Hz, with a total installed power of 27 kW.
The machine measures 9,200 × 3,900 × 4,700 mm and weighs 13,500 kg. It is supplied complete with a continuous belt washer, which automatically cleans the conveyor belt as part of the ongoing production cycle, reducing manual intervention and supporting hygiene compliance in a food-grade environment.
