How It Works



Producing High Quality Bitterballen with an Automated Production Line

Bitterballen (Dutch fried meatballs) are famous for their rich meat filling and crispy crust. Traditionally, the fillings are made with a cream and meat sauce, commonly using beef, pork, or chicken. More modern recipes include innovative flavors, such as vegetarian, seafood, cheeses, and exotic spices. ANKO's fully automatic Bitterballen machine accurately controls the crust and filling ratio to meet various innovative product specifications. Our equipment settings can be adjusted according to the desired filling consistency, weight, product size, and shape.

ANKO provides stand-alone equipment and offers integrated production solutions that efficiently complete food preparation, product forming, packaging, freezing, and quality control. Our machine allows reduced staffing with increased production. Our in-house food scientists can assist with recipe adjustments, enhancing your products to appeal to different market and consumer demands.

The fully automatic Bitterballen machine is equipped with an IoT (Internet of Things) system to achieve efficient productivity through big data collection. The three core functions include - Real-time machine health monitoring, Remote hosting management, and Digital production management. These functions comprehensively improve efficiency and provide a platform for smart factory management. ANKO assists you with raw material inventory forecasting, transportation, and warehousing to help you gain a high degree of control over production details, preventive maintenance, and downtime minimization.

  • Fast ROI: Most ANKO clients achieve a return on investment within 6–18 months through labor savings and increased order capacity.
