Low Investment High Quality Quick Tunnel Freezer Iqf Shock Tunnel Quick Fast Freezing Machine
Speed and quality are essential in the food processing industry, and one crucial aspect to achieving both is freezing. Freezing food items not only increases their shelf life but also preserves their taste and nutritional value.
A tunnel freezer is a type of commercial freezer that uses a conveyor system to move products through a tunnel of refrigerated air. The products are exposed to a blast of cold air, causing them to freeze rapidly and uniformly. This type of freezer is widely used in the food industry, particularly for freezing items such as vegetables, meat, seafood, and baked goods.
Advantages
| 1 | One of the primary advantages of a tunnel freezer is its production output. Depending on the size and configuration, a single unit can freeze thousands of pounds of food products per hour. The capacity of a tunnel freezer can range from several hundred kilograms to several tonnes of food products per hour. This high production output not only increases efficiency but also reduces labor costs, making it a cost-effective solution for food manufacturers. |
| 2 | Another benefit of a tunnel freezer is the quality of the frozen products. Unlike traditional freezing methods, such as air blast and plate freezing, which can result in uneven freezing and texture changes, a tunnel freezer offers uniform freezing at a fast rate. This rapid and uniform freezing helps to preserve the texture, flavor, and nutritional value of the products, ultimately resulting in higher quality products and satisfied customers. |
| 3 | The cooling system of a tunnel freezer is another advantageous feature. Unlike other types of commercial freezers that use water or ammonia for cooling, a tunnel freezer uses a fan-assisted airflow. This system enables the rapid exchange of heat, and the cold air is forced over the products by the airflow, resulting in a uniform freezing process. This airflow also helps to remove any moisture present on the surface of the products, preventing ice buildup and contamination. |
In addition to the above benefits, a tunnel freezer is also space-saving and versatile. It has a compact design and can be installed in any available space even in the smallest food manufacturing facilities. This compact design also makes it possible to set up multiple units for increased production output or specific product lines. Furthermore, a tunnel freezer can handle a wide variety of products and freezing requirements, making it a versatile solution for food manufacturers.
