Ask a Question About This Product
The KM012-6 is a charcoal-fired automatic chicken rotisserie with dual-sided capacity for 60 chickens total across 12 skewers. It operates without gas or electric connection for heat generation, using a 230V 22W motor solely for spit rotation. Built for high-volume kebab shops, Turkish restaurants, street food operations, and catering where traditional charcoal flavour is required.
Commercial Application
Charcoal fuel eliminates dependency on gas mains or LPG cylinders. The 12-skewer configuration supports continuous service during peak hours. Operators load chickens on dual-sided racks, ignite charcoal in the fire box, and maintain rotation throughout service.
The dual-sided layout allows staggered cooking. One side completes while the opposite side continues roasting. This workflow maintains output during extended service windows. Charcoal consumption and fire management become the primary operational variables.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does this rotisserie use LPG or natural gas?
A: No. The KM012-6 operates entirely on charcoal fuel. Heat is generated by charcoal combustion in the fire box below the cooking chamber. Only the 230V motor requires electrical connection for spit rotation.
Q: What is the total chicken capacity?
A: 60 chickens across 12 skewers. Each side holds 30 chickens on 6 skewers. Dual-sided configuration allows staggered cooking and continuous output.
Q: How is charcoal loaded and maintained during service?
A: Charcoal is loaded into the fire box at the base of the unit. Operators replenish fuel and manage airflow throughout service. Ash collection trays require periodic emptying during extended operations.
Q: Can this unit operate in a food truck or mobile catering setup?
A: Yes, if ventilation and fire safety requirements are met. The 480 kg weight requires structural support. Charcoal smoke extraction and compliance with mobile food regulations must be confirmed before installation.
Q: How are drip trays and grease channels cleaned?
A: Drip trays slide out from beneath the cooking chamber. Grease channels are welded steel and cleaned with commercial degreasers. All surfaces cool before cleaning after service ends.
