NEAEN CDT Continuous drum thawing (defrosting) machine
Designed for sensitive and effective heat treatment of berries, legumes, vegetables, seafood and other bulk products.
Applications – Individually Frozen Products That Require Delicate Defrosting/Thawing Without Overheating And Damage To The Structure
- berries – for the production of jams, wines and other products
- green peas and other legumes in canning lines
- seafood – prawns, mussels and other canned varieties
- and many more.
Design And Principle Of Operation Of Neaen Cdt Continuous Drum Thawing (Defrosting) Machine
The NEAEN CDT drum thawing machine consists of a cylindrical thermally insulated container mounted on a solid frame, which ensures the stability of the whole construction. A reliable mechanical drive provides uniform rotation of the drum at a predetermined speed that varies depending on the time required for thawing of the particular product.
The frozen product is loaded into a hopper and at a constant rotation of the drum, moves to the outlet, wherein the uniform heating of hot air, water or steam (depending on the product type) occurs. Settings, such as the speed of the product´s passage through the thawing camera and the heating temperature, adjustable from the control panel allow the user to pick the optimal mode of defrosting for each product, excluding damage or over-cooking.
Depending on the type of product and customer requirements, the model can be equipped with a function for removing or saving condensate formed during defrosting. The NEAEN CDT drum thawing machine is equipped with a specially designed feeding hopper, as well as a special mechanism for uniform complete product discharge with no dead zones. The design of the feeding and unloading devices can be changed upon the customer’s specifications.
The capacity of the drum defroster is controlled by changing the speed of the passage of the product through the thawing camera. Changing the passage speed is achieved by changing the speed of rotation of the drum and the angle of its incline.
Versatility
The NEAEN CTD drum thawing machine is supplied with a systems of steam and water heating, which allow a wide range of products to be processed in the same machine. Accurate settings ensure uniform thawing of the product and prevents over-cooking.
If necessary, blanching and chilling zones can be added to the defrosting section.
On request, a continuous IQF thawing machine can be supplied with the loading and unloading conveyors, as well as any additional equipment.
