Benefits

The open-frame Tetra Pak® Ice Cream Sandwich unit A1 offers efficient, precise and repeatable production of high-quality ice cream sandwiches. With its hygienic design, it meets all sanitary requirements. The servo drives ensures high production output and the limited mechanical linkage enables easy maintenance. It is also a solution with low environmental impact – paper wrapping is environmentally superior to plastic or foil flow wrap, and the envelope wrap uses less paper-based packaging material than flow wrap.

Features

Biscuit/wafer dispenser

Servo driven and adjustable

The manually loaded wafers slide into the wafer dispenser through an adjustable guiding. The servo-controlled motion pushes them securely into the pockets of the star wheel.

Nozzle

Nozzle

Easy to remove and change

The static nozzle is mounted above the star wheel pockets. It can be finely adjusted for perfect ice cream cutting by the edge of the wafer. No additional ice cream cutter is needed.

Servo drives

Servo drives

Easy to adjust and maintain

The individual stainless steel direct servo drives reduce the number of mechanical linkages and the maintenance need for these parts. Less lubrication is needed due to lubrication free bushings. The limited number of parts results in fast cleaning and secures food safety.

Timing of the servo can be controlled and adjusted via the program on the HMI screen. There is no need to change the mechanical setup.

Safety door and shields
