The Rapid Toaster uses a Platen heater and two
Auxiliary heaters. The Platen heater consists of a
heating coil built into the platen to toast the cut side of
the bun. The two Auxiliary heaters assist in providing
additional heat to the buns. The first Auxiliary heater
is located within the Conveyor Belt Chain in the front
of the toaster. The second Auxiliary heater is located
within the Conveyor Belt Chain at the rear of the unit.
