Home » Cooler » Tunnel
A Cooler Tunnel is more of a continuous cooling mechanism where the hot product is placed onto an endless traveling band or porous belt and is conveyed through the cooling box which has recirculating air blowing through the product. Upon exiting the belt the product is cooled to the requisite temperature and possible moisture.
Most of Frain’s cooling tunnel machinery include stainless steel construction and may require change parts to accommodate size and fill range.
Frain is fully staffed with engineers and technicians who can completely integrate cooling tunnel machines, retrofitting or reconditioning each machine to meet your exact specifications. We include in-house testing with every machine that ships, proof of concept and trial runs.
The Morcos 12in Enrober and Cooling Tunnel System is a sophisticated and efficient industrial equipment used in the confectionery and food processing industry. This system seamlessly coats products with a 12-inch wide enrobing belt, ensuring consistent and precise chocolate or glaze coverage. The subsequent cooling tunnel rapidly solidifies the coating, preserving product quality. With its advanced automation and temperature control features, the Morcos 12in Enrober and Cooling Tunnel System streamlines production, enhances product aesthetics, and maintains optimal product consistency.
