Caractéristiques
Standardized frame
Easily upgrade from 2000 to 3000 model to increase capacity
The stainless steel frame with sloped surfaces and mounted on wheels is the same for both the 2000 and 3000 models. Only the hopper, the mixer and the pump need to be upgraded.
Hopper
Gentle handling of sensitive products
Several smart features enable gentle handling of sensitive and brittle inclusions such as cookie pieces and fruit pieces. The agitator rotates and the auger is shaped to enable gradual filling and even takeout. This minimizes circulation inside the hopper and prevents clumps from forming. A grooved outlet pipe releases ingredients evenly into the product pump inlet funnel.
Hopper grid
Prevent accidents when filling ingredients into hopper
The hopper safety grid is designed according to the latest safety standards to secure operator safety. The holes in the grid are large enough for ingredients to be loaded in but narrow enough to protect operators.
Hopper lid
Enables easy access and flexible line layout
The hopper lid opens backwards, enabling ingredients to be added from the sides and front at a low re-feeding height. This provides easy access for operators to refill the hopper if required. Two dosers may be placed beside one another without obstructing the refill process.
Choice of augers
Ensure highly accurate dosing
As the auger turns, the ingredients are transferred at a steady dosing rate from the hopper to the pump. This unit can be fitted with a variety of different augers, and they are easy to change. This means your dosing is always optimized for the product type, size and required capacity range.
Lamella pump
Gentle handling keeps ingredients intact
Ingredients are fed into the lamella pump and the cavities between the lamellas carry the inclusions into the pressurized product zone. The pump is designed to transfer the ingredients gently into the pressurized base product, without breaking or damaging them, and without incorporating any air into the mixture.
Compact design
Maximizes space efficiency
Thanks to its small footprint (1.1 m2), the unit can be used in almost all production plants, even where space is limited.
Loss-in-weight control system
Accurate and repeatable dosing
The loss-in-weight control system, combined with the correct auger selection, enables extremely accurate dosing – typically achieving a standard deviation dosing rate of less than 3%, depending on the size and type of inclusion.
Options
Ventilated lamellas
Enables a broad variety of large inclusions
The lamellas are designed with ventilation holes to ensure that all the air is released from large inclusions such as cookies, which may have a lot of trapped air inside them. When the pressurized base product meets the cavity, it naturally replaces any air that may be present between the inclusions, and that air then escapes through the ventilation holes.
Magnetic grid
Minimizes food safety hazards
Placed on top of the hopper, the magnetic grid is designed to trap any foreign objects made of metal, which may have found their way into the ingredients packages. Although this is a rare occurrence, an error can have dramatic consequences, so it is worth safeguarding your production with this simple option.
Insulated hopper
Maintains the inclusions’ shape
Soft inclusions such as fruit pieces often benefit from being injected cooled or pre-frozen. This not only maintains their natural shape, but also makes them easier to integrate into the ice cream – without causing it to melt.
Automatic CIP front cover
Minimizes the risk of damage to the pump
For best results when cleaning, all the tight tolerances inside the lamella pump should be released to enable thorough flush through. This is achieved with an automatic CIP front cover inside the pump’s closed system. This type of cover also guarantees the right pressure during operation, and thereby reduces wear and tear of pump parts during both operation and cleaning.
Bridge breaker
Prevent product build-up on sides of inlet funnel
When dosing sticky and dusty ingredients there is risk of them building up on the sides of the funnel and this can make the dosing inefficient. The bridgebreaker is indexing up-and-down the sides, ensuring continuous movement to prevent anything from sticking to the funnel sides.
Auxiliary Doser
Enables feeding of two ingredients
You can even add a Tetra Pak® Ingredient Doser A2000 or A3000 A3 unit to your setup, enabling you to feed two or more ingredients simultaneously. This includes a vibrating feed for nuts, almonds, etc.
Comfort Package
The comfort package is designed to make every day use and service even easier.
To increase serviceability and make everyday use even easier, the the comfort package includes:
- Dosing auger in stainless steel in lieu of plastic. Stainless steel augers are preferred for
- Sticky products.
- More robust on abrasive ingredients.
- Better heat resistance
- Heavy ingredients
- Air pressure monitoring gauge (for CIP front cover, bridge breaker),
- Holder for lamellas, rotor, pump front cover and tools. For easy safe service of the lamella feed pump
- Tools for dismantling feed pump For easy safe service of the lamella feed pump
Production status indicators, light and acoustic alarms, gives operator early warnings in case of low hopper level, or other production disturbances.
Dual hopper for Ingredient Doser 3000
Higher quality at a lower cost
A dual hopper doses two ingredients simultaneously into one ice cream stream through a single lamella pump. Built-in software ensures a stable and accurate ingredient flow in predetermined ratios with precise inclusion distribution. A very low standard deviation of 3% for inclusions reduces overfilling and hence product giveaway, reducing the user’s ingredient costs.
