Abstract: The present invention relates to an automated dough extruder and fryer for chakli production. The system comprises a dough hopper (103), extruder unit, gearbox (102), nozzle (106), base plate (104), supporting columns (105), transparent top cover, air frying unit (101), heating coil (202), fan (203), vertical motion mechanism (204), and power screw (205). The dough hopper (103) supplies dough to the extruder unit, where the gearbox (102) controls extrusion motion. The nozzle (106) forms chakli shapes on the base plate (104). The vertical motion mechanism (204) and power screw (205) transfer the base plate (104) into the air frying unit (101). The heating coil (202) and fan (203) provide uniform hot air circulation for frying. A PLC and HMI control system regulates extrusion, temperature, and time. The system enables automated shaping and oil-free frying, ensuring uniform product quality, reduced labor, and improved efficiency for domestic and commercial applications.
