CTi Edge Drive Spiral Freezer

This space—saving spiral freezer continuous uniform freezing and high production capacities of meat, poultry, seafood, vegetables and baked products. Each product piece is frozen uniformly regardless of its position on conveyor belt.

Temperature, air circulation and conveyor speed can be independently adjustable and PLC controlled.

Our Edge Drive freezer has no internal drum drive, making Clearing Simple and efficient. Insulated casing and stainless steel Construction are built to Danish Standards.

The Edge Drives innovative design eliminates the risk of catastrophic failure common on traditional systems, such as belt flipping. With a positive conveyor sprocket drive, Edge Drive belts provide a smooth, continuous product flow and are gentle with fragile or delicate products. They save money by protecting product quality, increasing throughput, decreasing footprint and reducing waste.

Edge Drive is a positive-drive system with one or more motors. By removing the center drum, commonly found in spiral freezers, we have relieved unnecessary belt tension and given unobstructed access to the spiral conveyor. Greater access allows for not only easier cleaning, but also for increased airflow, and that means greater freezer efficiency.

We have coupled the Edge Drive conveyor with a Horizontal Airflow system. The result is that every product, no matter of its location on the belt, is subject to the exact same airflow and therefore exits the freezer with a uniform temperature.

Key features:

  • Horizontal Airflow for quick freezing and reduced product dehydration.
  • Product conveys feed in and out at the same height.
  • Precise process control.
  • Improved flexibility reduces costs, placement limitations, maintenance
  • and installation time.
  • Wide variety of belt mesh types available.
  • No risk of belt flipping.
