Vacuum fryers, superheated steam ovens and confectionery machinery, built on more than 80 years of engineering at our head office in Japan. Try your own ingredients first at KARC in Seoul, and let us watch over your machines remotely after delivery.
Kiyomoto Korea supplies food processing and confectionery machinery developed over many years by our head office, and takes care of installation and maintenance in Korea.
Frying under high vacuum at 90–140℃ keeps flavour, colour and nutrients while leaving little oil.
Steaming, grilling, thawing and boiling in one machine, with steam up to 350℃ in an almost oxygen-free chamber.
Candy lines built around the SFC super-thin-film vacuum cooker — about 70 years of candy know-how that began at Sakuma Seisakusho.
| Vacuum frying | Atmospheric | Pressure frying | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pressure | Negative | Atmospheric | Positive |
| Water boils at | below 100℃ | 100℃ | above 100℃ |
| Oil temperature | 90–140℃ | 140–210℃ | 110–200℃ |
| Purpose | Drying · moisture control | Cooking, drying | Cooking · moisture control |
| Product | Crisp · low oil · puffed | — | High yield · high oil |
| Type | Basket capacity | Standard throughput |
|---|---|---|
| VF-20 | 20 ℓ | 60% of basket capacity |
| VF-150 | 150 ℓ | 60% of basket capacity |
| VF-250 | 250 ℓ | 60% of basket capacity |
| VF-500 | 500 ℓ | 60% of basket capacity |
Throughput depends on the raw material, its shape and pre-treatment. Oil oxidises slowly, so it lasts longer; automatic operation keeps the workplace clean.
Includes 20 L units delivered for research and testing in Korea and abroad. Videos are on our YouTube channel.
| Superheated steam (Super Oven) | Hot air (gas) + steam | |

KARC (Kiyomoto Advanced Research Center, founded 2020) in Seoul has a vacuum fryer and a superheated steam oven. Bring your ingredients and we support food processing tests and product development on both machines.
Tell us the raw material, the product you want and the daily volume, and we will schedule a test.
A small connector on the control panel of a delivered machine lets you and the Kiyomoto engineering team see the same live screen. Operating stages and alarms reach your phone, and our engineers can look into a problem before anyone travels to site.
