What are the different types of ice cream production lines
Tuesday, August 06, 2024Ice cream production is a complex process. In order to meet the market demand for different ice cream products, ice cream factories usually have multiple different types of production lines. Let's take a look at the different types of ice cream production lines.
Molded stick ice cream production line
The molded stick ice cream production line is mainly used to produce molded stick ice cream products, such as popsicles, ice lollies, ice candies, etc. Its basic production process is as follows: inject ice cream raw materials into stainless steel ice cream molds, freeze, insert ice cream sticks, and then continue to freeze the ice cream products into different shape mold, then demold and send them to the packaging machine.
Ice cream extrusion line
The ice cream extrusion line can be used to produce ice cream products with special shapes, such as funny face ice cream, 3D ice cream, log ice cream, wave ice cream, bonbon ice cream, ball cone ice cream, etc. Its basic production process is as follows: the ice cream is extruded from a customized stainless steel mold and cut into a preset shape (the stick product will be inserted into the ice cream stick), and then the formed ice cream products are sent to the quick freezing tunnel for freezing to maintain the shape and quality of the ice cream products. Then they are sent to the packaging machine for packaging and cartoning.
Ice cream filling line
The ice cream filling line is used to produce ice cream in cones, cups, boxes, tubs, tubes, containers, etc., such as Cornetto cone ice cream, cup ice cream, callipo ice cream, etc. Its basic production process is as follows: put empty containers, such as cups, cones, boxes, tubes, etc. into the designated position, fill ice cream into the container, and then heat seal or lid the ice cream product.
Ice cream sandwich production line
The ice cream sandwich production line is used to produce ice cream sandwich products of various flavors and shapes (round, square, triangle), such as Haagen-Dazs ice cream sandwiche, Klondike ice cream sandwiche, etc. Its basic production process is as follows: automatically put the biscuits (or cookies, wafers, bread) into the designated position, extruted ice cream and place it on the biscuits (or cookies, wafers, bread), then cover another piece of biscuits (or cookies, wafers, bread), and package the ice cream sandwich products and send them to the cold storage.
Ice cream cake production line
The ice cream cake production line is used to produce ice cream cakes with personalized and designed shapes. Its basic production process is as follows: through the collaboration of different workstations, ice cream cake products with rich flavors, different colors and various shapes are produced, and then the ice cream cake products are packaged and sent to the quick freezing tunnel or cold storage to maintain the shape and freshness.
Only one single ice cream production line usually cannot meet the production of multiple different ice cream products at the same time. In order to better meet the market demand for various ice cream products, ice cream factories usually configure multiple different ice cream production lines according to requirements. You only need to inform the ice cream equipment manufacturer of the ice cream product photos and the hourly capacity requirements, ice cream manufacturer will provide professional advice to ice cream factories based on the requirements.
