  1. THAWING INSTALLATION

  2. Thawing Installation

  3. Definition of a thawing process • Unfreeze of meat or other products like fruit, vegetables or fish • Temperature controlled process • From e.g. -20°C (-4°F) to -1°C (+30°F) • Or to a temperature for the following production steps like slicing or cutting

  4. Reason for thawing • Nearly 200 mio tons of meat are produced in the world every year • About 20% will be frozen • Transport routes / export of meat from Brazil, Denmark, Germany, Canada • Shelf life • Hygienic requirements • Just-in time production • Taking advantage of good market prices

  5. Function • Automatic interval and process as a function of surface temperature • Detection of max. surface temperature • Detection of core temperature • Detection of chamber temperature • Adjustable temperature range • Air humidity 100% • Fan with frequency converter • Installation can be used as a storage room Flexible andsafesolutionfor different requirements

  6. Thawing process Zone I Heating of frozen product up to -5°C (23°F) Zone II Thawing and heating up to -1°C (30.2°F) Zone III Heating of thawed product of >+1°C (33.8°F)

  7. Thawing with Microwaves Consareobvious

  8. Thawing in water bath Consareobvious

  9. VEMAG – Thawing by means of air The advantagesareobvious

  10. VEMAG - Thawing by means of air • Packedproductswehave a weightlossofapprox. 1% - depending on product, waterinjectionsandfreezingprocess • Uncontrolledthawing will be at least 2-3 % formeatandfish A differenceof 1,5% weightloss sums upto 243€/day, i.e. 60.750€/year

  11. Benefits • Top energy efficiency • High level of flexibility • Captivating quality • Outstanding hygiene Summary ofbenefits

  12. Benefits • The air change flap system achieves dynamic circulation of air. Sophisticated measuring and control technology enables us to achieve significant energy savings • Cooling allows the installation to be used as a storage room. Storing the products in the same room means that storage can follow on automatically from the thawing process until the next processing step starts. Direct transfer saves space and additional cooling rooms • The temperature-controlled thawing process using exclusively low-pressure steam ensures that additional energy is saved Top energyefficiency

  13. Benefits • Controlled process management using automatic intervals, temperature and circulating air as a function of surface temperature ensures an optimum thawing result.Core and surface temperature are recorded by sensors on the product and used for a control process perfectly adapted to suit your product • You can thaw different products in one installation at the same time High levelofflexibility

  14. Benefits • A frequency-controlled circulating air motor ensures a gentle thawing process. Thawing with air provides an economic and hygienic process, as well as a gentle one. The products are evenly heated in the flow of air as a function of max. surface temperature (HACCP) • We provide extremely reliable technology with low-maintenance components Captivatingquality

  15. Benefits • The use of air and steam enables us to achieve minimal microbiological cross-contamination Outstanding hygiene

  16. Basic data Basic informationisneeded such as • Block dimension • Productinformation • Fatcontent • Max. surfacetemperature • Start temperature • Final temperature (core)

  17. Basic data • Maximum load for different block dimensions

  18. No boxes are possible

  19. Open or packed products

  20. Design – Machine position Machine at rear wall Machine on top

  21. Options – Chamber design Chamber by customer Metalchamber by VEMAG(ceramic plates onbrick or PU-walls)

  22. Flow conditions Suctionduct Dynamic andevendistributionofair Injection ducts

  23. Process scheme

  24. Options • Central Managing and Documentation System (LDS) • Ethernet Connection • Automatic floor conveyor • Automatic conveying of suspended trolleys • Metal chamber Different optionsfor individual design

  25. MOBILE THAWING INSTALLATION For more flexibility

  26. Mobile Thawing Installation • Worldwide movable • Movement by ship, rail, truck… • Plug and play with only few connections • Same performance and quality as the tried and tested Thawing Installation

  27. Basic data • 40‘‘ high cube container • 9 trolleys à 750 kg • 6.750 kg/batch • Packed products in blocks • E.g. 600 x 400 x 150 (lxwxh) • Time: 10 – 12 hours • Use as a storage room

  28. Basic data InnerdimensionsOuterdimensions L = 11.185 mm 12.192 mm W = 2.286 mm 2.438 mm H = 2.520 mm 2.896 mm
