3D Freezer

Quick-freezing

3D Freezer

The 3D freezer uses the built-in fan circulating the high humidity turbulence in the freezer to have a 360 degree cooling where every surface of foods is hit all at once while forming the ice crystallization.
It is capable of rapid freezing without using super cooling technology to prevent the crystallization from growing while still being able to freeze foods faster than any other conventional freezers in the market.
In contrast to the constant circulation of air for the conventional type, the 3D freezer exchanges heat without returning air to the cooler in the refrigerator. Due to the non-circulating structure, the air cools the whole food uniformly from all directions.
This homogeneity makes high quality freezing without distorting the shape of ice crystals while placing the ice crystals in a way which minimizes the growth of ice crystallization, thereby maintaining the content’s original freshness, flavor, texture and moisture.

Quick freezing

3D cold air with 5~8% higher humidity has a strong ability to transfer and to remove heat in a short time freezing without depriving the water content.

No pre-cooling

Immediately after heating, food even with high temp. can be cooled and frozen at once without pre-cooling resulted in achieving an amazing yield.

Frozen distribution

Freezing products mostly in the chilled distribution extend the shelf life resulting in the reduction of food loss and expansion of sales channels.

Non drip

3D freezing minimizes drip. Since the influence on ingredients is minimal, the original freshness and flavor can be reproduced.

Cost reduction

Continuous operation without defrosting for a long time can reduce the running cost of more than 30% by the lower labor & electricity charge in the short-term production.

Hygienic management

Since cold air circulation duct is not equipped, there is no blind spot for cleaning. As the result, the hygienic management is improved by removing the hotbed for bacteria.

In the conventional freezing method, the cold air cooled by the cooler is applied to freeze the food. In the refrigerator, the heat taken from the food is chilled again with a cooler and applied to the food.
The 3D method freezes the ingredients without directly applying cold air to the food. This is a non-flow-through heat exchange method that freezes the food by keeping the air around the food in contact with cold air while cooling it.

The difference occurs in freezing speed between the places where the cold air hits and where the cold air does not hit.
3D hits the whole food as if it wraps the whole food, so there is no uneven. Therefore, the stable quality can be provided.

Succeeded in freezing yellowtail, sea urchin and paste products which have been considered unsuitable for freezing, it was demonstrated that 3D freezer has excellent reproducibility of frozen foods proving almost no difference between before freezing and after thawing.
In addition to fresh fish such as tuna, puffer fish and firefly squid, 3D freezer is also effective for highly processed ingredients such as meat and prepared foods.

Drip spilling is not much seen and the original condition of ingredients such as color, flavor and texture can be restored.

Drip loss is one of the most important parameters of food-quality evaluation. It leads to the loss of nutrients flowing out with drips, affecting the texture and juiciness as well as the appearance.

Vacuum-packed yellowtail was tested in a temp. range around -60℃. After storing for 3 weeks, it was confirmed that the blood and white parts of the cut surface were almost the same as before freezing.
Freezing mangoes occurred from high water volume, changing important nutrient, color and texture. 3D Freezer was found to be a great freezing method maintaining the quality similar to fresh mango.

Specification

There are many models, depending on the required production capacity. The smallest one is the E-40 (capable of producing 40litres of safe and good tasting freshwater per hour), and the largest one is available at 250litres or more.
