Cooling system for post-baking stabilization

Optimize your production line by integrating a cooling system that ensures post-baking stability, essential for handling sensitive confections like filled chocolates and chocolate-coated nuts.

Cools, Stabilizes, and Buffers Confectionery and Baked Goods

The Multi-Level Active Cooling and Stabilizing System from Royal Houdijk offers an integrated solution for food manufacturers, confectionery producers, baked goods producers, and snack manufacturers aiming to improve product quality and efficiency. This equipment uses a multi-tiered cooling and stabilizing approach to ensure rapid temperature reduction and crystal stabilization for diverse products like cookies, chocolate-coated nuts, filled chocolates, sandwich cookies, and granola bars. Designed for high-speed, continuous operations in the food, baking, confectionery, and snack industries, it supports final conditioning by maintaining optimal product texture and structural integrity.

The system’s flexible configuration allows integration with existing production lines, supporting both standalone cooling or combined with buffering through the INFLOW BUFFER to manage production peaks efficiently. Engineered for robustness, it features PLC control for seamless automation and remote monitoring capabilities, ensuring consistent, precise operation while minimizing downtime. With an emphasis on energy efficiency, it reduces operational costs with optimized motor control. Crafted from high-grade materials for durability and compliance with industry standards, the cooling system is easily maintainable and offers options for customization to align with specific production requirements.
