Bonjour à toutes et à tous !
Je traduis un document qui vante les mérites du matériel de cuisine dont les composants sont notamment les suivants :
"AutoFlam
CloseContact burners
Fry-top"
Le terme "Fry-top" s'emploie-t-il en l'état en français ou bénéficie-t-il d'une traduction officielle ?
Merci beaucoup.

plancha
...is what we called this device in our restaurant kitchen, and what i've always heard it called by other chefs.
All credit to both Florence and Kevin, who chose not to submit their suggestions as an actual answer; should they do so, i'll happily withdraw my own suggestion.

Of course, it's originally the Spanish term, but is widely used in FR.
Otherwise, just 'plaque' — but 'plancha' is more fashionable!

Tony M
: I have a doubt, since this is NOT actually frying! 'plaque à griller, plaque à snacker', perhaps? / Yes, but this is a misnomer, since in FR this is NOT called 'frire'.

to fry = frire ; faire frire. Plus, according to Termium, it's for profesionnal use / Tony, so I recommend you to write an amendment request to Termium

B D Finch
: Tony is right. Read his comment, he is saying that fry-tops are not used for what is called frying in English, so Termium's translation of "to fry" is irrelevant.
