CRYOLINE® PE Pellet Freezer
If you are looking for ways to produce frozen pellets of sauce, purées and other liquid foodstuffs, then take a closer look at the CRYOLINE® PE.
This patented freezer will produce IQF pellets in a regular size with high repeatability, opening up many possibilities for the modern food processor.
Application and use
Whether you are producing for the catering or retail market, this freezer will allow your customer to defrost as much or as little of your product as required, giving you the edge over your competitors.
The CRYOLINE® PE works by simply filling the cavities in a belt pre-cooled by liquid nitrogen.
The extremely low temperature of the belt rapidly freezes the liquid into the shape of the cavity, thereby stabilising the product before it is released at the end of the belt.
The product is then transferred to a final freezer, such as the CRYOLINE® MT tunnel freezer, to complete the process and form a 'chocolate bar' of pellets. Due to the very low thickness of the joining product, the pellets are easily separated into individual pieces.
The CRYOLINE® PE can be used with either liquid nitrogen or carbon dioxide, giving a greater flexibility in applications. The introduction of the gas is controlled via regulated electromagnetic valves, ensuring the efficient use of the available cold.
Benefits
The CRYOLINE® PE offers the following benefits:
- all-stainless steel construction meeting food-grade standards
- easy-to-clean design as all parts are accessible when the machine is opened
- fully repeatable production - every pellet will be the same size and weight
- standard pellet size of 30 x 30 x 6 mm with an option to customise
- simple controls for ease of use
- fully controlled liquid nitrogen dosing
- high efficiency, cost-effective process
The units are delivered fully assembled and tested with:
- stainless steel cavity belt
- drive motor with variable speed control
- side-mounted control panel with self-explanatory, easy-to-use controls, automatic gas-supply controller and temperature indicator
- CFC-free polyurethane insulation with inner and outer stainless steel facing
- fully welded construction
- liquid nitrogen system with spray manifold
- stand with adjustable feet
- transport wheels
The main option with this freezer is the customisation of the pellet size, depending on the product to be pelletised.
The density of the product and the inclusion of any solids (e.g. mushrooms), will determine the weight of each pellet. There is even a possibility to have your logo or trademark printed on the pellet by producing the belt cavities in a special way.
Specialist expertise
The CRYOLINE® PE Pellet Freezer can be viewed and tested at the Food Technology Centre at Thame in Oxfordshire.
We offer 'try before buy' trials which can be arranged at no obligation to test and simulate production processes to a high level of accuracy, ensuring the best fit of application technology to your needs.
