【 Quick frozen type 】 Quick frozen fruit
[Case Introduction]
In Kyrgyzstan, the unique natural conditions have nurtured fertile soil and abundant water sources, providing an ideal environment for the cultivation of strawberries and other berries. However, traditional local storage and transportation technologies have long constrained industrial development.
·//Preservation difficulties//
Relying on traditional cold storage for pre cooling and foam box ice bottle storage, frequent warehouse opening and picking up lead to temperature fluctuations, accelerate strawberry decay, high loss rate, and restrict industrial development;
·//Efficiency bottleneck//
The efficiency of manual sorting is low, and the fruits are prone to deformation due to squeezing during batch storage, which affects the value of the goods;
·//Weak market competitiveness//
The short shelf life of fresh fruits makes it difficult to achieve rapid freshness locking and large-scale storage, making it difficult for products to be exported to international markets.
To break through the development bottleneck, customers were exposed to CBFI's fluidized freezing technology through industry exhibitions and selected it as the core solution for industrial upgrading.
[Equipment Configuration]
The CBFI team conducted in-depth investigations and combined customer strawberry parameters and daily production data to construct a strawberry storage solution using fluidized freezing equipment as the core.
·Core equipment: fluidized freezing machine
·Quick freezing capacity: 2000KG/hour
·Applicable products: cherries, strawberries, raspberries, etc
·Supporting system:
Operation workshop: 12 ℃ constant temperature environment, ensuring smooth connection between pretreatment and quick freezing;
Cold storage system: 4 high-efficiency refrigeration units, 120kg/m ³ large cold storage, meeting the low-temperature preservation needs of frequent door opening and closing.
[Highlights of the Plan]
Fluidized freezing technology is an advanced process that uses high-speed cold air to quickly freeze small particle products in a semi suspended state, especially suitable for the freezing treatment of small and vulnerable fruits. CBFI's fluidized bed quick freezing equipment has the following core advantages:
1. Quickly freeze and lock in nutrients
At a low temperature of -35 ℃, the equipment can quickly lower the center temperature of strawberries to below -18 ℃, effectively preserving the original color, taste, and nutritional content of the fruit.
2. Single unit quick freezing to prevent adhesion
The fruit enters the equipment in a flat form and forms a semi suspended state under the action of high-speed cold air, achieving uniform freezing, avoiding adhesion, and maintaining product integrity and aesthetics.
3. Efficient and energy-saving, with a high degree of automation
Equipped with an intelligent control panel that supports remote monitoring and fault warning, the entire line is linked for control, reducing manual intervention and improving production efficiency. Adopting Bitzer high-efficiency refrigeration units and polyurethane sandwich insulation panels, energy-saving and consumption reducing, and stable operation.
4. Material safety and compliance with food standards
The whole machine is made of 304 stainless steel, and the anti slip plastic mesh belt design meets the American Ashworth standard. It has strong load-bearing capacity and is clean and hygienic. There are anti slip edges on both sides to ensure zero material shedding during transportation.
5. Strong continuity, suitable for large-scale production
The transmission system is equipped with low tension synchronization technology, auxiliary transmission devices, and multi frequency converters for coordinated control, ensuring long-term continuous operation stability and meeting the needs of large-scale industrial production.
[Project Implementation and Customer Feedback]
CBFI engineers are fully involved in the design, installation, and commissioning of the project, and accurately adjust equipment parameters based on the customer's raw material characteristics and daily production data to ensure that each batch of strawberries can reach the optimal freezing state.
The CBFI team is very professional, with technical personnel on site to guide from design to installation and debugging. After being frozen by this equipment, our strawberries not only last longer but also maintain their original flavor and form, making them easier to enter the international market. "The customer manager stated.
At present, the system is running stably and receiving good customer feedback. Strawberries that have been frozen can be directly packaged and stored in -18 ℃ cold storage for a long time, significantly reducing the loss rate and increasing the added value of the product. It also lays a solid foundation for future expansion into a wider market!
CBFI, with its profound refrigeration technology accumulation and rich overseas project experience, continues to provide efficient, environmentally friendly, and intelligent cold chain solutions to global customers.
