Overview

The EPK-SNK150 covers the full process — mixing, sheeting and forming, frying, seasoning and packing — as one continuous, balanced line. The result is uniform shape, consistent crunch, even seasoning coverage and a stable cost per kilo, which is what makes a snack brand profitable at scale rather than just possible. Product format is flexible: the forming section produces slant/lattice and custom shapes, and the line links directly to automatic packing for sachet, pillow and family packs.
