RACK/TRAY OVENS

natural gas fryers
Versatility is key to the popularity of Rack and Tray-style ovens. Ovens in both mini and full-sized models meet virtually any kitchen size, configuration and baking/roasting need. Rack ovens allow food to be loaded/unloaded to trays at a separate station. Trays are then placed on the racks, which are rolled into the oven. Revolving tray ovens, in contrast, rotate Ferris-wheel style within the oven box. Food is loaded or unloaded from the trays as it passes the oven door. Stainless steel styling and glass viewing windows make rack and tray ovens an attractive option for exhibition cooking.
