Description
Key Features and Benefits
Stainless Steel Construction: The cooling plates are made from high-quality stainless steel, providing a durable and hygienic surface that is easy to clean and maintain. The polished surface ensures the candy mass does not stick to the plates, facilitating smooth handling and processing.
Water-Jacketed Cooling System: The plates are equipped with circulation channels beneath the stainless steel surface, through which cooling water flows. This water-jacketed design allows for rapid and uniform cooling of the candy mass, ensuring consistent temperature control across the entire batch. This uniform cooling is critical for maintaining the quality and consistency of the final product.
Proven Performance: Our cooling plates have been used for decades and have a proven track record in large and small processing units. Confectionery professionals around the world trust them for their reliability and effectiveness in cooling candy mass quickly and efficiently.
Customizable Sizes: Standard sizes of cooling plates are available to meet everyday production needs, but custom sizes can also be fabricated to suit specific space and production requirements. This flexibility ensures that the cooling plates can seamlessly integrate into any production setup, regardless of scale or layout.
Rapid and Uniform Cooling: The design of the cooling plates ensures that the candy mass cools down quickly and uniformly, preventing hot spots and ensuring that the entire batch reaches the desired temperature simultaneously. This rapid cooling helps to preserve the texture and flavor of the candy, which is crucial for achieving a high-quality final product.
Versatile Application: While primarily designed for cooling candy mass, these plates can be used for various other applications in food processing where rapid and controlled cooling is required. Their versatility makes them a valuable addition to any food production facility.
Application and Usage
1. Installation: Install the cooling plates on a stable, level surface in your production area. Ensure the water circulation system is correctly connected to the channels beneath the plates.
2. Operation: After pouring the hot candy mass from the cooking systems, spread it evenly over the surface of the cooling plates. The water-jacketed system will begin to cool the candy mass immediately, allowing you to monitor and control the cooling process as needed.
3. Temperature Control: Adjust the water flow rate through the circulation channels to manage the cooling rate. Faster water flow will result in quicker cooling, while slower flow allows for more gradual temperature reduction.
4. Maintenance: Regularly clean the stainless steel surface of the cooling plates to prevent residue buildup and ensure hygiene. Periodically check the circulation system for leaks or blockages to maintain optimal cooling performance.
5. Customization: If custom sizes or configurations are required, consult the manufacturer to design cooling plates that perfectly fit your space and production needs.
Final Words
Cooling Plates are indispensable tools in the candy production process. They provide rapid and uniform cooling of the hot candy mass to ensure consistent quality and texture. These plates, with their durable stainless steel construction, water-jacketed cooling system, and customizable options, are suitable for various production environments.
Whether you are producing large batches in an industrial setting or small quantities in an artisanal workshop, cooling plates offer the precision and efficiency needed to achieve excellent candy-making results.
