ABSTRACT:
Apparatus is disclosed for providing a very light pre-dusting coating on a food piece intended for batter-coating. The apparatus includes a movable belt on which is provided a preliminary coating of breading material on which the product pieces are placed. A series of drag plates are then provided across the belt supported from above in a position to engage the breading material on the belt and to provide a standing wave of breading material pushed up by contact with the drag plates. These plates then distribute the standing wave of breading material over the top of the product while the plate lower edges remove a majority of the top coating. After this the product goes along the belt and is then subject to a second pre-dusting treatment by a plurality of parallel linear curtain assemblies mounted above the belt with each of the curtain assemblies divided vertically into segments which are fully swingable independent of each other and arranged to engage the product pieces on the belt lightly so as to leave a final top coating on the product pieces that is only two or three dust particles thick.
