The equipment in brief
Automatic machines with tilted cooking plates for producing thin round crêpes and similar products cooked on one side. The crêpe diameter is set by the plates. The series comprises seven models — from 15 plates of Ø 17.5 cm to 9 plates of Ø 40 cm.

Key advantages
The plates set the diameter
The product is not "adjusted" by settings — its size comes from the geometry of the plate, so it stays constant.
Seven sizes
From 15 plates of Ø17.5 cm to 9 plates of Ø40 cm — the machine is chosen for the product rather than the other way round.
More compact than a disc line
Tilting plates take less floor space than a Ø2 m disc at comparable output on a small product.
Electronic temperature control
The temperature is held equally across all plates — the outer ones do not overbake.
Insulated plates
Less heat escapes into the workshop and less load falls on the ventilation.
Extraction hood included
Steam is drawn away from the working area — proper conditions for the operators, not an afterthought.
Who this equipment is for
The 1C series is for products baked on one side:
- crêpe producers
- thin pancake workshops
- central kitchens
- frozen semi-finished product makers
- plants with a limited workshop area
Production process
The batter is fed by a pump and spread over the cooking plates mounted on a motorised supporting frame. Heating is electric with electronic temperature control. The cooking plates are insulated and covered by a vapour hood.

Output figures apply to filled crêpes made from wheat flour. Maximum values are given in brackets.
