The fat melter is designed for continuous industrial liquefaction of solid fats and butter stored in standard 25 kg blocks. The equipment operates through a hybrid system combining a heated top thermal grid for initial thermal cutting and a double steam-jacket retention tank to reach the target temperature of 50°C. Equipped with a variable-speed paddle agitator, this system ensures a homogeneous emulsion ready to be pumped to the next process stages, eliminating production bottlenecks and drastically reducing frozen raw material preparation times.
Maximize your reprocessing line efficiency by transforming frozen butter blocks (down to -20°C) into high-quality homogeneous oil, ensuring precise thermal control and total safety through automated CIP systems.
•Scalable Processing Capacity: Available in configurations supporting flows from 500 kg/h to 10,000 kg/h, allowing the investment to be adapted to the plant's current and future demand.
•High-Efficiency Thermal Management: Utilizes 2 bar steam (120°C) in a double-jacket design (walls and bottom) for uniform heat transfer, preventing excessive thermal shock and preserving the organoleptic properties of the fat.
•Automatic CIP Integration (Clean-In-Place): 4-stage cleaning system (hot rinse, alkaline chemical wash, fresh rinse, and disinfection) with integrated spray balls, guaranteeing compliance with strict sanitary standards without manual disassembly.
•Input Versatility: Designed to process blocks with core temperatures down to -20°C, eliminating the need for costly and slow tempering processes in previous refrigerated chambers.
•Advanced Control and Automation: IP65 stainless steel control cabinet with PLC and touchscreen for precise temperature monitoring, pump management, and washing cycles, minimizing human error.
