Extruded ice cream with large inclusions
In the industrial ice cream production sector, there’s a growing demand for diverse and innovative product offerings. Producing ice cream that includes large chunks of ingredients like cookies or fruits requires specialized extrusion technology to maintain product integrity and quality.
Add large inclusions to extruded ice cream
The LIFE and LIFE-3D units from Gram Equipment enable the extrusion of ice cream with large inclusions while shaping it in a single unit. Utilizing their patented Cryo-ZAT™ (Zero Adhesion Technology), these units can handle the addition of any inclusion that can run through an ingredient feeder, ensuring that large cookie pieces or other inclusions maintain their integrity through the extrusion process. They support a production capacity of up to 120 pieces per minute for both stick and stickless products, dependent on the downstream handling capabilities. This makes the LIFE unit particularly suitable for creating unique and visually appealing ice cream products that cater to modern consumer preferences.
