Dale Spiral Systems & Bakery Automation is this month getting its first-ever 96 t carton cooler ready for delivery to a dairy manufacturer, which has been in development for the last four years. Marleny Arnoldi visited the site.

Marleny Arnoldi:

The machine has been specially engineered for cooling down cheese from around 30˚C to 11˚C.

The R13-milllion machine can accommodate 96 t of cheese, cooling down for a period of 24 hours.

The carton chiller comprises of 61 racks, each containing eighty 20 kg hot dip galvanised steel boxes. It has been designed for cooling using ammonia gas refrigerant and 16 fans, while it is powered using hydraulics.

Dale technical sales director Darren Grace tells Engineering News that the carton chiller is also well suited for use in the chicken and processed meat industries, which the company aims to supply as well. Grace tells us more about the machine’s operation and development.
