Hey guys, Paul from Rapids Wholesale. Tell
me, does this sound familiar? You need to
make a lot of toast, but you don't have
a whole lot of counter space in your kitchen.
We might have the answer for you. Check out
this compact conveyor toaster from STAR.
This training video is on the Holman quartz
conveyor system conveyor toasters. All Holman
Quartz conveyor system toasters feature quartz
heating elements. Quartz heating elements
are glass tube elements that radiate heat
in an infra-red spectrum that toasts bread
differently than cal rod elements. Most conveyor
toasters feature metal elements. Main feature
differences between quartz and metal elements
is the infrared spectrum it toasts in and
the ability to heat quickly versus the metal
elements. Because they're glass tubed they
heat much quicker than a metal element therefor
it allows you to heat up earlier when you
turn the conveyor on, and it also allows you
to recover from standby mode which all of
our conveyor toasters feature.
This model you see right in front of us is
a QCSE-500 conveyor toaster. It features 10
inch wide belt which will fit two pieces of
bread. You also see a load up tray in the
front. In order to minimize sticking of bread
to a conveyor its best to load up bread on
the load up tray. And it sits on and pulls
into the conveyor toaster without anybody
pressing the bread into the belt. It typically
toasts bread in about 45 to 50 seconds. But
in a continuos process it'll do up to about
500 slices per hour. All conveyor toasters
with their ratings are rated to an optimal
number of slices of bread per hour. The other
unique feature about our Holman toasters is
we do not use any insulation, we use cool
air to cool down the conveyor toaster. So
in both sides and in the top we circulate
air that originally comes in through the bottom.
It keeps the controls cool. It keeps the motors
cool. So we get longer life out of the product,
and it circulates that air around the sides,
around the back and eventually ends at the
top that keeps everything cool to the touch,
and that air eventually comes out of the front
of the conveyor toaster which helps to dry
out the bread before it goes in.
We have models that run from the smallest
and most economical, our QCS 1350 which will
do optimally up to 300 slices of bread per
hour. Up to a bagel toaster that will do up
to 1600 slices of bagels per hour.
The loader tray can be removed, which allows
it for removing crumbs. There is also a um
tray for catching the bread. It is also removable
so you can dump out the crumbs at the end
of the day. The model you see here also features
electronic controls. The electronic controls
allow you to preset both the belt speed and
the amount of heat to optimally toast whether
it's bagels, bread, English muffins, or
any other product on there so you can hit
a button, automatically change the conveyor
speed for the optimal time for that particular
piece of toast. It also features two other
buttons for lighter and darker, so a waiter
or waitress can modify the belt speed to get
a darker piece of toast or a lighter piece
of toast depending on what the customer wants.
It also has an automated standby mode. If
the conveyor is not being used, it will automatically
drop into a power saver mode. That power saver
can be defined as 25 percent of the heat.
It'll drop that temperature down while the
toaster is not being used but once a customer
order comes in you can push one of the buttons.
It drops out of power saver mode and because
we use quartz heating elements it allows it
to be heated up quickly and the toast can
be loaded in the load up tray and be ready
by the time it enters into the toaster. If
metal elements were used it would take another
minute or two minutes before that toaster
would be back up to temperature and ready
to go. So Holman quartz conveyor toasters
are designed for fast heat up, ideal toasting,
and feature a very cool to the touch surfaces.
In the event that electronics are not desired
you can also get knob controls in place of
the electronics which will control the top
heat the bottom heat and the belt speed. For
bagel toasters in particular, those toaster
are designed only with top heat with very
little heat on the bottom to toast the open
side of the bagel. So Holman conveyors have
the most options of any conveyors in the industry.
We do not use any louvers on the sides which
allows these toasters to be placed anywhere
in the kitchen environment and they're very
economical.
