The EMP-3000 Empanada Making Machine produces up to 3,000 empanada per hour, significantly reducing labor costs, increasing output, and maintaining consistent quality—far more efficient than manual production. Many ANKO clients have grown from small shops or food carts into major restaurant chains, proving that ANKO equipment delivers long-term production benefits, higher efficiency, and competitive growth in large-scale shumai production.

What services are provided when purchasing food machinery? Is there after-sales support?

Yes. Purchasing food machinery includes full service before and after installation. We provide machine testing, product trial runs, and consultation through local offices and distributors worldwide, including the US, Europe, and Asia. After purchase, buyers receive installation, operator training, and after-sales service to ensure stable production. In addition, modular and partially customized options allow manufacturers to adjust machine settings to create different product textures, shapes, and flavors efficiently.

What is the Empanada Making Machine price?

The price of a commercial Empanada Making Machine depends on the level of automation and customization required. ANKO currently offers two models of empanada forming machines, suitable for different production needs. The system can also be integrated with vegetable cutters, dough mixers, fryers, and other upstream and downstream equipment, allowing frozen food factories and chain restaurants to source all required machinery in one place for a fully automated production line.

How Can You Scale Empanada Production to Meet Growing Market Demand?

The EMP-3000's capacity of 3,000 pieces per hour enables frozen food manufacturers and central kitchens to increase output by 400-500% compared to manual production, while reducing labor costs by eliminating 7-8 production line workers. This scalability allows you to capture larger market share, fulfill bulk orders for retail chains, and expand distribution channels without proportional increases in operational costs.
