R-V Builds: Pilot Project Cooker

One of R-V’s greatest assets is the ability to design and produce a product based on a customer’s desire, not a generic template. Recently, a nationwide food processing and production company approached R-V with a unique need. They requested a pilot system for cooking their product using a consistent cooking and agitation process. The vessel would need to be portable and efficient. While details of the project are confidential, some highlights are:

  • R-V’s team of engineers and designers created a design to suit the customer’s requirements and the piece was then manufactured on-site.
  • The rotating vessel included mixing features while maintaining heat and pressure during the cooking cycle.
  • The entire vessel was monitored using a PLC control system which is able to track recipes, save information, and configure cooking parameters.
  • All components of the vessel were manufactured according to ASME Code and NEC standards, while meeting all of the customer’s design and sizing requirements.
  • R-V provided factory and on-site training for the end users.
