Product Description
The Roller Grill PIW30 is a single-zone induction hob designed specifically for wok cooking. Rather than a flat induction surface, it uses a recessed vitro-ceramic bowl that holds a 300mm wok securely in position, allowing the operator to cook with confidence and movement without the pan shifting during high-tempo stir-frying. A 300mm wok is supplied with the unit.
In a working kitchen, the PIW30 suits services where wok dishes appear consistently on the menu — whether that is a dedicated Asian kitchen, a noodle bar, or a theatre cooking station. The induction element responds quickly to power changes, and the 20-level digital control with built-in timer gives operators the ability to produce repeatable results across a full shift without relying on guesswork between covers.
Practical advantages for operators include:
- Induction heating keeps surrounding surfaces significantly cooler, reducing burn risk in compact or customer-facing stations
- 13A plug-in connection means no hardwired electrical installation is needed in most settings
- The steel rim supports the wok during active cooking and helps protect the bowl surface
- Recessed bowl design retains pan position, reducing slippage at speed
- Compact and portable — straightforward to reposition between stations as service demands change
Because it runs from a standard 13A socket, placement is flexible and relocation is simple. It is a single-zone unit, so kitchens requiring several simultaneous wok outputs will need multiple units or a different arrangement — worth factoring into planning at the outset. The unit is suited to stable counter surfaces that can handle sustained heat output at full power.
The PIW30 is well suited to restaurants, hotel kitchens, and noodle bars where wok dishes are a regular menu feature, and particularly to live cooking environments where the induction format keeps the station cleaner and cooler for guests. Higher-volume operations needing sustained multi-zone wok output may find a heavier-duty or multi-ring configuration a better fit.
If you would like to talk through how the PIW30 would work within your current setup, the team is happy to help you think it through before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes — the unit is rated for sustained operation at full power, which is important when wok dishes are going out continuously through a shift. The induction element responds quickly to power adjustments, so operators can work through back-to-back covers without significant recovery delays.
- No hardwired connection is required in most commercial settings. The unit runs from a standard 13A socket, which makes it straightforward to position on any stable, heat-resistant counter surface and to relocate as your service layout changes. It is worth confirming your site's socket capacity if you plan to run multiple units simultaneously.
- That depends on your service volume and how many wok dishes you are producing simultaneously. For a noodle bar or restaurant with a modest wok output, a single unit is often sufficient. If wok cooking is high-frequency across several dishes at once, running multiple units or considering a multi-zone arrangement would be worth discussing before you order.
