Application: The Rota-Freeze is a full-scale horizontal freezing drum for test
work. It is used to obtain operational data, to establish a basis for design of
industrial-size systems and to produce product for quality evaluation. The drum
freezer is primarily used for freezing liquid and pasty products.
Capacity: The freezing capacity is up to 150 kg/h and the temperature
after freezing can be as low as –50°C. The capacity depends on the
refrigerant temperature, rotation speed and product layer thickness.
Specification: The diameter and the length of the drum are both 1 m,
which means that the drum has an area of 3.15 m2. The minimum
temperature of the refrigerant is -55°C.
The drum freezer is
provided with an oscillating nozzle and a levelling roller to ensure even
product layering and with a detaching device to remove the frozen product.
