Rotary moulder for ice cream production

Achieve high-speed, precise ice cream moulding with seamless integration into your production line, optimizing efficiency by combining freezing, stick insertion, and coating processes in one compact unit.

Moulds and Freezes Ice Cream Products

The Rotary Moulder 23 M2 from Tetra Pak is an advanced ice cream moulding machine, ideal for efficiently processing a wide range of frozen treats such as chocolate-coated bars and sherbet sticks. This machine employs mechanically driven linear extraction to ensure high-speed continuous production, managing up to 10,000 products per hour. Equipped with superior mould tables and extractor tongs, it ensures durability and reliability under the demanding conditions of food and dairy industries. The moulder features automation capabilities that adapt to different filling methods, supporting diverse product outputs with minimal manual intervention. Integration into your production line is seamless with three layout options, while the addition of two types of wrappers enhances the hygiene of the operation. Energy efficiency is bolstered by its mechanical drive, providing rapid and consistent movements, and a nozzle plate that optimizes brine-based freezing. Further customization is available through options like an electric brine heater and tong surveillance sensors, promising precise control and operational flexibility.
