Customized spiral freezer solution for food industry
In the food industry, maintaining stringent hygiene standards and efficient freezing processes is critical. Challenges include minimizing yield loss, ensuring consistent product quality, and reducing downtime for cleaning cycles.
Tailored freezing solutions for optimal food preservation
The GEA A-Tec spiral freezer is an advanced freezing solution designed to meet the food industry’s stringent hygiene requirements. These freezers feature a fully welded floor and enclosure, drive motors located outside the enclosure, and a recirculating cleaning system, ensuring compliance with the highest hygiene standards. With capabilities to handle 0.2 to 7 tons per hour, they are designed based on specific product characteristics, capacities, facility space, and line layout. The system minimizes yield loss and increases production uptime through high efficient horizontal airflow and a dynamic IVS (Intelligent Valve System) for optimizing air temperature. Additionally, the Clean-In-Place (CIP) system reduces cleaning cycles, and the belt steam defrost system enhances continuous operation. The Callifreeze® control system continuously monitors and controls product frozenness, ensuring quality and consistency.
