The product to be frozen is randomly fed in a thick layer on a linear belt where it is kept agitated by a powerful vertical flow of chilled air. Continuous product mixing during the freezing process gives a loose finished product, free of agglomerated particles. The cooling system is divided in 2 sections/belts lengthwise:
– The first one, where the layer of product is low, is designed to produce an external freezing of the particle “skin”
– The second one, with product build-up, causes freezing at the core of the particles.

The product to be frozen is randomly fed in a thick layer on a linear belt where it is kept agitated by a powerful vertical flow of chilled air.
OVERVIEW
Continuous product mixing during the freezing process gives a loose finished product, free of agglomerated particles. The cooling system is divided in 2 sections/belts lengthwise:
- the first one, where the layer of product is low, is designed to produce an external freezing of the particle “skin”;
- the second one, with product build-up, causes freezing at the core of the particles.
The dwell time/speed of the sections/belts is regulated with frequency variators.
The axial-type circulation fans combined with evaporators of the flat-fin, decreasing-spacing type, ensures low energy consumption.
The whole system is enclosed within an insulated cabin.
MECFLOW is available in 8 standard models with working capacity from 500 kg/h to 10,000 kg/h.
Each standard model can be configured to match customer needs and specifications.
PRODUCTS: small-size non packaged solid products fed in bulk: diced vegetables, diced fruits, wild berries
BENEFITS:
- No possibility of product contamination thanks to lubrication-free conveyor system
- All structures made of stainless steel
- Low electric consumption thanks to axial fans and extra-large fin spacing of evaporators
- Circulation fans placed in dry zone (without clogging)
- Long work cycles due to evaporators with large and decreasing fin-spacing
- Low cost of spare parts and maintenance activities due to utilization of high quality commercial components
- WORKING CAPACITY: 500 to 10,000 KG/h (base Peas)
