Reich invented the first fully automatic friction smoker, which was patented back in 1980. It’s still the same technology that many smoke generators use now. Reich also patented the special stainless steel friction wheel, which shows Reich’s leading role in the area of friction smoke generation.

  • The patented original
  • Pleasantly mild smoke aroma
  • Very good colouring properties
  • Low toxin content due to the low smoke generation temperature
  • Environmentally friendly in the closed CircoSystem®
  • Starts and stops smoke generation in seconds
  • No risk of fire or explosion when used according to instructions
  • Good cleaning properties
  • Low smoke generation temperatures
  • Very robust patented stainless steel friction
  • Variable controllable smoke intensity
  • Smoothly adjustable pressure
  • Made in Germany

 

How it works

A friction smoke generator works by pressing a wooden rod against a friction wheel turning at high revolutions. The smoke density is determined by two factors:

  • The pressure of the wooden rod against the rotating friction wheel
  • Combination of work & pause intervals
  • When one rod is exhausted the next automatically drops into place for continuous smoking which is great from when no one is on site
