Frequently Asked Questions

A fully automatic panipuri making machine from Penguin Engineering costs between INR 85,000 and INR 3.5 lakh depending on die size (3, 4, 6, or 9 die) and belt configuration. The 3-die model suits street vendors, while 6-die and above are used by cloud kitchens and franchise chains.

A 6-die automatic panipuri machine produces approximately 4,800 to 6,000 panipuris per hour on a continuous shift, depending on dough consistency and belt speed. This equals output sufficient for 25–40 outlets in a cloud-kitchen network.
