IQF Machine Operation Options

Manual Operation

In this mode, all electrical control functions can be operated independently. Operators can individually start or stop the fans, conveyor belts, dehumidification system, and other associated electrical components. Personnel may start the fans in isolation to verify air circulation conditions.

Automatic Operation

In this mode, once the manual parameters have been configured and the power supply is connected, pressing the “Start” button initiates automatic operation of the equipment. After the blast freezer enters its normal operating state, the solenoid valves activate in accordance with the preset parameters.

Applications of the Quick-Freezing Machine

  • Seafood: Shrimp (including both shelled and peeled varieties), mollusks, oyster products, scallop products, various fish fillets, and sushi products.
  • Poultry and Meat: Processes raw or cooked products in diced, sliced, or strip forms. Applicable to chicken pieces, beef slices, pork strips, and various other processed meat products.
  • Fruits: Freezes a wide variety of fruits, including strawberries, pineapples, durians, papayas, mangoes, longans, yellow peaches, apricots, lychees, and others.
  • Vegetables: Capable of processing diced or sliced ​​mushrooms, sweet corn kernels, fresh beans, bean pods, various herbs, frozen celery, and similar products.
  • Dairy, Pasta, and Prepared Foods: Suitable for freezing various pastries, individually packaged macaroni, tofu cubes, and other similar products.

Features of Individual Quick Freezer

Tunnel Freezing Performance

Its tunnel-style structural design allows products to pass through a low-temperature freezing chamber. The circulation of cold air facilitates the rapid and uniform freezing of products. The temperature within the freezing chamber can be lowered to below -40°C, capable of reducing the core temperature of products to approximately -18°C within a short timeframe. Furthermore, it ensures that products remain separated from one another after freezing (known as Individual Quick Freezing, or IQF), thereby streamlining subsequent packaging, weighing, and storage processes.

Freezing Time

Depending on the specific characteristics of the products being processed, the freezing time can be adjusted to range between 15 and 45 minutes. Smaller products require shorter freezing times, whereas larger products necessitate longer freezing durations. This flexible design allows the equipment to adapt to the requirements of various production lines, accommodating diverse product specifications and processing protocols.

Capacity Specifications

This quick-freezing machine is available in capacity specifications of 300 kg/h, 500 kg/h, 1000 kg/h, and 8000 kg/h. Customers can select the model best suited to their specific needs based on their daily production volume, available plant space, product type, and overall production planning.

Freon Refrigeration Technology

Freon circulates within a closed-loop refrigeration system, flowing sequentially through a compressor, condenser, expansion valve, and evaporator to absorb heat from the tunnel freezing chamber. Compared to liquid nitrogen rapid-freezing technology, Freon consumption is minimal, and the operating cost consists almost entirely of electricity charges.

Heat Exchange Evaporator

The evaporator is responsible for absorbing heat from within the freezing chamber. Frost will accumulate on the evaporator’s surface during operation; therefore, it is recommended to perform a water-flushing defrosting procedure every 12 hours.

FAQ

What is the working principle of a tunnel-type individual quick freezer?

A quick-freezing machine utilizes a low-temperature medium to make direct or indirect contact with food products. Through mechanisms such as forced convection and conduction, it rapidly extracts the thermal energy from the moisture contained within the food. This process causes the moisture within the cells to form minute ice crystals, thereby preventing cellular rupture.

Aside from tunnel-type freezers, are there other types of quick freezers?

There are 4 types of quick-freezing machines based on their structural design. Tunnel-type quick freezers utilize a conveyor belt to transport products through a low-temperature tunnel, enabling continuous production. Spiral quick freezers employ a spiral conveying mechanism, thereby saving space. Cabinet-type quick freezers feature a compact, enclosed structure, making them suitable for small-batch processing. Fluidized-bed quick freezers utilize an upward flow of cold air to lift the food products, creating a “suspended” state.
