Process freezer EASY Freeze

Process freezer EASY Freeze – Designed for the perfect IQF freezing. EASY Freeze is entirely made of stainless steel and every fan is equipped with his own frequency inverter which guarantees an extraordinary fluidization.

The Tarp is manufactured from Trevira fabric with PVC coating and has fiberglass reinforcement bars to resist air pressure. The Tarp is fixed onto the suction wall with special guide tracks and rollers for adjustment to different pallet heights. This pressure roller secures the Tarp to follow the pallets and guides it to cover the pallets completely airtight. We advise placing our integrated and depressible foam buffers (100×100) on the suction wall to prevent air by-pass behind the pallets.

CHARACTERISTICS

Several unique and proprietary characteristics of the Easy Freeze contribute to our industry leading IQF freezing, including:

  • Full controlled fluidization method keeps the product constantly suspended above the belt in a cushion of air. The result is the immediate crust freezing and efficient core freezing of individual pieces, regardless of type, variety or condition of product.
  • Up to few days or more continuous production without any drop in freezing efficiency, thanks to the effect of powerful ASR (Automatic Snow Removal) system. No more interruptions to defrost even when running double shifts, which again should present some daily savings of operating costs.
  • Maximized freezing efficiency for each unique product, whether the product is heavy, light, soft, sticky or fragile, thanks to Variable speed control of all fans and belts, allowing on-the-fly optimization of air flow conditions.
  • Interior video monitoring allows for real-time supervising of operating conditions, allowing the complete control and adjustments of the entire process from outside, without necessity to entering into the freezer.
  • Entire machinery is constructed in stainless steel, including powerful fans / turbines (produced by PIGO).
  • Maximized IQF quality. Due to the air flow that is created from our proprietary fans (designed and manufactured by PIGO) our freezing method does not allow any settling or adhering together of product. The product remains in a state of fluctuation until it is crust frozen, thus ensuring free flowing IQF.
  • Custom freezing possibilities. With variable control of all fans and belts (standard feature), our freezer is adaptable to virtually any small fruit regardless of ripeness, state of process, condition or size including all the berry types/varieties.

Industry proven.

Our freezing method is not new. We have refined and improved small aspects of our technology over the years, but the general concept is highly proven to work on a variety of very difficult products. We have satisfied customers all over the world that can verify the successes of our freezing method.

EASY Freeze

is considered as the freezer with the most superior sanitation, giving the possibility to the user to freeze different products one after the other without risk of cross – contamination.

The obvious benefit is the direct cost savings but it should also be mentioned that eliminating the pre-crust freezing step will also prevent misshaped raspberries from staying misshaped. Our adaptable air flow (fluidization) method will actually help flattened raspberries to restore the original shape in order to improve the final quality of your packs.

All PiGo equipment and food processing lines are constructed of stainless steel and manufactured to ISO and HACCP food processing industry standards. Painted surfaces are not used because they do not meet these standards. Following this philosophy PIGO developed his “EASY Clean Concept” that consist of:

  • OPEN DESIGN allows direct access to all interior components for quick and easy cleaning cycles and maintenance. CIP (Clean in Place) options also available.
  • CLEAN BELT for all the production cycle, the belt kept inside the freezer housing all the time.
  • NO CONTAMINATION OF THE EVAPORATOR by product particles, thanks to built-in deflectors and full controlled fluidization. The result is timesaving due to the elimination of unnecessary production stops and possibility of having few shifts with or more days of non-stop working time.
  • EVAPORATORS EFFICIENTLY AND EASY CLEANED by built-in cleaning system, and efficiently dryed due to their horizontal disposition (these operations are not that easily performed with vertically positioned ones).
  • EASY Freeze is ENERGY SAVING and TROUBLE FREE SOLUTION for all your freezing needs.
