Impingement Mesh/Plate Belt Tunnel Freezer--IQF

Tunnel quick freezers come in various types, each designed for different freezing requirements and product characteristics:

• Standard Tunnel Freezer: Uses high-speed cold air on a conveyor belt to quickly freeze products. It is versatile and suitable for a variety of products, such as meat, seafood, and bakery items.
• Impact Tunnel Freezer: Utilizes a unique low-temperature airflow within the chamber to achieve rapid freezing, with freezing effects close to those of liquid nitrogen spray freezers. This type is ideal for delicate products that require ultra-quick freezing to preserve texture, such as seafood and specialty food items.
• Fluidized Bed Tunnel Freezer: In this type, small products like peas, corn, or shrimp are suspended in a stream of cold air, allowing for individual quick freezing (IQF). It is particularly effective for freezing small items that need to remain separate.

Each type has its unique advantages, allowing users to choose the appropriate equipment based on product characteristics and desired freezing speed.

Impact tunnel quick freezers offer several advantages over traditional tunnel freezers, especially in terms of speed and product quality:

• Faster Freezing Time: Impact tunnel quick freezers are designed to achieve extremely rapid freezing by using advanced airflow and cooling technology. This reduces the time required to reach the desired temperature, which helps to preserve the texture and quality of the product.
• Better Preservation of Product Quality: By freezing products quickly, impact tunnel freezers minimize the formation of large ice crystals within the food. This is particularly beneficial for maintaining the structure and taste of delicate items like seafood, fruits, and high-value meats.
• Energy Efficiency: The rapid freezing process of impact tunnel freezers means they can complete the freezing cycle faster, which can lead to lower overall energy consumption when compared to slower, traditional tunnel freezers.
• Reduced Product Weight Loss: The quick freezing process helps to minimize dehydration and weight loss in products, leading to better yield and higher profitability for manufacturers.

These advantages make impact tunnel quick freezers a preferred choice for industries looking to achieve high-quality freezing while reducing production time and maintaining energy efficiency.
