Cooling drum for breakfast cereals production

Ensure even cooling and product separation with optimized airflow for higher quality breakfast cereals and snacks production.

Cools and Separates Cereal and Snack Products

The Cooling Drum from Schaaf Technologie is designed for efficient cooling and separation in snack and breakfast cereal production. Leveraging ambient air through a low-pressure blower, it mitigates product agglomeration by ensuring even ventilation and separation of sweet slurries and filled products. This drum’s unique profile circulates products effectively, supporting operations for end-products like cornflakes, rice krispies, and filled cereal bites. Adaptable for continuous production lines, it integrates seamlessly with upstream equipment such as extruders and embossing machines, ensuring hardened and brittle final products. Engineered for robustness, this drum is suitable for food-grade environments, offering reliable performance for cereal manufacturers and snack producers aiming for consistency in product quality.

Benefits

  • Enhances product quality by preventing agglomeration during cooling.
  • Increases production efficiency with continuous, low-pressure operation.
  • Seamlessly integrates with existing production lines for streamlined workflow.
  • Ensures consistent product hardness and separation for superior end-product reliability.
  • Reduces operational costs by utilizing ambient air for energy-efficient cooling.
