Iqf freezer for fruits and vegetables
Efficiently preserving raw fruits and vegetables often requires advanced freezing techniques to maintain quality and minimize spoilage. Traditional freezing methods can cause clumping and fail to meet the industry’s hygiene standards, posing challenges for high-volume food processors.
Ensures precise and hygienic Iqf freezing
The Frigoscandia FLoFREEZE IQF Freezer by JBT addresses these challenges with its patented air flow system and true fluidization technology. It offers dual-zone fluidization and two independent tracks with separate pressure chambers for stable and precise freezing. The stainless steel IQF tray enhances hygiene and is suitable for high-volume products like peas and corn kernels. The pulsation system regulates air pressure, gently separating delicate products during crust freezing. Additionally, back-and-forth agitation increases throughput by ensuring proper individual quick freezing (IQF). The air-bypass system fine-tunes airflow through the product bed, accommodating various shapes, sizes, and weights of fruits and vegetables. Capacities range from 1 metric ton (2,200 lbs.) to 17,500 metric tons (38,500 lbs.) per hour, making it suitable for a wide range of operations.
