Upgrading Your Machines
What upgrading options are there?
Kebab machines are build to last a long time. However, due to the nature of the prolong usage of the machine in a high temperature commercial environment, kebab machines do degrade through time depending on their usage. Here are some guide to what upgrades options available for you as a business owner.
1. Upgrading to SLIDER When an upgrade is needed?
The SLIDER burner module mounting solution is a product innovation by FlameMaster. This SLIDER solution is aimed at: a) improving the productivity and user experience of staff in a kebab shop environment. b) Lower the operating cost of a kebab business by improving kebab cooking efficiency - lowering gas wastage. This new SLIDER mounting for kebab machine top section can also be installed onto older compatible kebab machines.

When an upgrade is needed?
Gas burner module will degrade through time. Uneven flame on the burner face results in hot-spots that can be visually observed on worn out burner faces - resulting in poorly distributed flame. Gas is wasted due to non-uniform burning. FlameMaster offers several cost effective option to upgrade your older burner modules. We also offer premium quality Rinnai Burners in our upgrading ranges.
Example: A badly worn-out burner & a uniform flame burner on a new burner.

3. Gas Valves and Manifold
When an upgrade is needed?
Main gas line manifold supplies gas to the kebab machine. In older designed machines, gas manifolds are made with square tubular metal tubes - prone to rust and in leakage on poorly made joints. Gas valves attached to these manifolds may become obsolete and changing of compatible gas-valve onto these manifolds may be a problem.
FlameMaster offers a complete upgrade of gas manifold with our gas approved valve units.

4. Upgrading to Stainless steel Gaslines
When an upgrade is needed?
We offer upgrading of old rigid internal gas lines to our flexible stainless-steel gas lines. Our flexible Stainless steel gas lines ensures all gasline routing are routed neatly and safely internally in the top burner section. These stainless steel flexi-gaslines are standard in our kebab machines. This flexi-gaslines allows greater and safer machine operation and maintenance as they do not obstruct the flame sensor and burner modules.
Our neatly assembled stainless steel flexi-gaslines and stainless steel manifold in place.

5. Flame Failure Sensor
When an upgrade is needed?
One of the most often overlooked important safety mechanism in a kebab machine (gas appliance) is the flame failure sensor. When the gas valve fails to shut-off automatically when the flame goes off, it is time to check/replace the flame failure sensor. There are several key components that ensures the proper operation of the flame-failure sensor.
FlameMaster provides an upgrade kit for these flame-failure sensors.

6. Protection Mesh Upgrade
When an upgrade is needed?
We offer upgrading of the front protection mesh of the kebab machines. Due to oil/grease splatter accumulation and constant direct contact of burner to the meat usual problem with swing type burner), the front protection mesh gets burnt and carbonised. Eventually the mesh will break off in pieces and may get stuck to the meat. This is unhygienic and dangerous to the kebab meat consumer.
We recommend these protective mesh to be replaced yearly at a minimum to protect the inner burner face and avoid contamination.

1. Upgrading to Locking Shaft
When an upgrade is needed?
The locking shaft solution is a product innovation by FlameMaster. This locking shaft solution is aimed at:
a) Preventing shaft rotation slippage when kebab meat is fully loaded on spit.
b) Allows user option to lock or use with free-rotation depending on preference.

2. Replace or Upgrade Bearings When a replacement is needed?
The bearing for the main drive shaft is one of the main part that normally missed by kebab machine owners. The location of the bearing on the drive shaft is hidden but is exposed to grease, water(from cleaning) and also high temperature cycling (hot/cold). These use conditions will naturally induce wear through normal usage. We recommend periodic inspection to avoid extensive rusting or wearing og bearings that will result in damage to other parts lower internal to the shaft system.

3. Main Drive-shaft and bearing kit
When a replacement is needed?
The bearing for the main drive shaft is one of the main part that normally missed by kebab machine owners. The location of the bearing on the drive shaft is hidden but is exposed to grease, water(from cleaning) and also high temperature cycling (hot/cold). These use conditions will naturally induce wear through normal usage. We recommend periodic inspection to avoid extensive rusting or wearing of bearings that will result in damage to other parts lower internal to the shaft system.
Typically when both the main-shaft + it's bearing and the external tubing is rusted as shown, we would recommend a full upgrade or replacement with a new set of drive-shaft and bearings.
