Nitrogen shower for instant ice cream topping hardening
Achieve rapid solidification of ice cream toppings with precision: the nitrogen shower technique ensures swift crystallization, allowing you to streamline production lines and maintain high-speed operations without compromising quality.
Instantly Solidifies Ice Cream Toppings
The Nitrogen Shower from Dohmeyer is engineered to enhance efficiency in ice cream production by instantly solidifying liquid toppings using precision cryogenic technology. This system injects liquid nitrogen directly onto the product to rapidly freeze layers, crucial for smooth horizontal transfer and subsequent processing stages like coating or packaging. Ideal for ice cream manufacturers, the Nitrogen Shower finds applications in freezing coatings for items such as chocolate-drizzled cones and caramel-topped vanilla treats.
Capable of integration into existing production lines, it complements high-speed, continuous operations typical in large-scale ice cream manufacturing. Dohmeyer ensures safety by encasing all cryogenic components within closed compartments and utilizing exhaust fans for gas removal. The system is designed with a variety of nozzles and injection systems to optimize liquid nitrogen spray for specific applications, aiding to prevent issues like lid pop-ups.
This energy-efficient equipment employs secondary nitrogen gas injection to improve production capacity and is easily maintained through its robust construction. Customizable engineering support is available from Dohmeyer to tailor the system to your operational needs.
