Wafer Stick (Egg Roll) Production Line

A wafer stick production line — also called an egg roll machine — is a fully automatic system that bakes thin wafer batter into sheets, rolls them hot into crisp tubes, and optionally fills them with chocolate, cream, or hazelnut paste.

Product Overview

Wanttone’s wafer stick (egg roll) production line runs the complete process flow: batter mixing, slurry conveying and storage, baking, rolling and forming, cutting, cooling, and packing — producing crispy, high-quality hollow or center-filled wafer sticks in different shapes, diameters, and lengths.

Built in SUS304 stainless steel with a bilingual touch screen, the line supports single-color, two-color, and striped stick designs. Center-filling configurations deliver up to 60 kg/h, while hollow-stick production runs around 30 kg/h, with electric or gas heating matched to local energy costs.

Capabilities & Applications

Key Features

  • Hollow or Center-Filled Production

    One platform produces plain egg rolls or precision-filled wafer sticks with chocolate, cream, or nut pastes, so you can serve both the snack and confectionery segments.

  • Double-Line, Two-Color Capability

    Twin baking and rolling drums with dual batter circuits enable two-color and striped sticks, center-filled variants, and higher output within a compact footprint.

  • Consistent Rolling Quality

    Servo-controlled rolling mandrels form tight, uniform tubes while the baked sheet is still hot and flexible, reducing cracking, unrolling, and rejects.

  • Flexible Shapes & Sizes

    Adjustable cutting and forming units set stick length, diameter, and end style for retail packs, ice cream garnishes, or boxed gift assortments.

  • Hygienic SUS304 Construction

    A full stainless steel build with food-grade contact parts and an easy-clean layout supports export-market food safety audits.

  • Simple, Multilingual Operation

    A bilingual PLC touch screen stores recipes, monitors each station, and shortens operator training time for international workforces.

Applications

  • The line produces hollow wafer sticks (egg rolls), chocolate/cream/hazelnut center-filled wafer rolls, two-color striped sticks, and mini wafer rolls for snack packs, ice cream decoration, and confectionery assortments. Typical customers include biscuit and wafer factories adding rolled products, chocolate brands building filled-stick lines, co-packers serving retail chains, and investors entering the fast-growing filled wafer snack segment.

From Preparation to Packing

  1. Mixer

    Prepare and condition the recipe to the specified consistency for stable downstream processing.

  2. Slurry Conveying

    Move and regulate the material continuously so the next operation receives a stable, controlled supply.

  3. Slurry Storage & Baking

    Maintain a steady material supply into baking while controlling the required time and temperature profile.

  4. Forming/Rolling

    Form and roll the product uniformly while it remains in the correct condition for processing.

  5. Cutting

    Size and separate the product cleanly for the next handling or packing stage.

  6. Cooling & Packing

    Cool the finished product to a stable packing temperature, then pack it in the agreed format.

The Wanttone Difference

Wafer stick quality is decided in seconds — the window between baking and rolling — so equipment precision and recipe stability matter more than nameplate speed. Wanttone brings over 40 years of baking machinery engineering, dating to the 1981 Yangjiang Biscuit Equipment General Factory, to every wafer stick line we build, and our own food factory gives us daily, first-hand understanding of batter behavior, filling viscosity, and packaging fragility. Our Foodstuff Machinery Research Institute develops stick diameters, filling ratios, and batter recipes to your specification, and ISO 9001 quality management controls every stage from materials to final inspection. With turnkey plant design, installation, operator training, and lifetime after-sales service, Wanttone supplies not just an egg roll machine, but a complete, production-proven business package.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can one machine make both hollow and filled wafer sticks?

Yes — the filling station can be engaged or bypassed, so the same line produces hollow egg rolls and center-filled wafer sticks with quick changeover.

What fillings can the center-filling system handle?

Chocolate, vanilla and milk cream, hazelnut paste, peanut butter, and similar pumpable fillings, with temperature-controlled hoppers for stable dosing.

What capacity should I expect?

Center-filled production typically reaches 60 kg/h; hollow sticks run around 30 kg/h. Double-line configurations increase total output — contact us for a layout matched to your target.

Can I produce two-color or striped wafer sticks?

Yes — dual batter circuits and twin rolling drums support two-color and striped designs, a strong differentiator for retail shelf appeal.

Do you provide recipes and operator training?

Yes — wafer batter and filling recipes are developed with our research institute, and commissioning includes full operator training plus lifetime after-sales support.
