GFJ600 Drum Breader & Drum Preduster
A rotating drum tumbles bite-size and irregular pieces in flour or crumbs, so folds and edges get the same coating as flat surfaces.
- 600 mm belt width
- Power 3.35 kW
- Belt speed 3–15 m/min (VFD)
- Sieve removes lumps automatically
Overview
Flat-bed breaders work best with flat, regular products. Pieces like popcorn chicken, irregular nuggets and chicken tenders have folds and raised edges that a flat bed can miss. The GFJ600 solves this by tumbling the product inside a rotating drum filled with flour or breadcrumbs.
The product does not need to be arranged on the belt, and quality stays consistent. A screening device separates the lumps that form during production, and an open-close lifting design makes the drum easy to clean.

Key features
No arranging needed
Pieces are fed in bulk; the drum turns them so every side is coated.
Even coating on folds
The drum design reaches folds and convex surfaces that flat breaders miss.
Lump screening
A sieve separates large particles formed during production and keeps the coating fine.
Easy cleaning
The open-close lifter gives full access to the drum for washing.
Variable speed
Belt speed is set by frequency inverter between 3 and 15 m/min.
Flour or crumbs
Use it as a drum preduster or as a drum breader, depending on your recipe.

FAQ
When should I choose a drum breader instead of a flat breader?
Choose a drum breader for small, irregular or rounded pieces such as popcorn chicken, where a flat bed cannot reach every surface. For flat products like patties and fillets, a tunnel or belt breading machine is usually better.
Can the drum be used for flour as well as breadcrumbs?
Yes. It works as a drum preduster with flour or as a drum breader with crumbs.
How is it cleaned?
The drum is lifted open for access, and the sieve removes lumps during production so less material builds up.
