Spiral Cooler/Chillers for<br />
the Bakery Industry<br />
held within the range of plus or minus 1 degrees.<br />
Second, The moisture content (or relative<br />
humidity) of the cooling air should be kept within<br />
the range of plus or minus 2%. This is crucial to<br />
avoid any dehydration or excessive moisturizing<br />
of the products.<br />
Third, an air speed that is generated over the<br />
products to be cooled should be approximately 1-<br />
2 meter per second, depending on their<br />
consistency. Advanced Cooling systems use<br />
gentle horizontal laminar airflow throughout the<br />
entire cooler for a perfect result.<br />
Forth, it is important to create an over pressure<br />
within the cooling area to avoid polluted air<br />
entering the insulated enclosure through any<br />
gaps especially for products with a long shelf life.<br />
Recently, Advanced Freezers from Netherlands<br />
has developed a range of spiral cooler/chillers for<br />
the bakery industry: the Advanced Cooling<br />
systems. These spiral cooler/chillers obtained a<br />
big evaluation and were supposed to represent<br />
the ideal bread-cooling concept in terms of<br />
hygiene, shelf life and product safety.<br />
Creates an Optimum Environment<br />
To ensure that the products are cooled to a<br />
consistently high standard, the advanced spiral<br />
cooler creates an optimum environment within<br />
the cooling area (insulated enclosure). This<br />
includes the use of an air-treatment or airconditioning<br />
unit which maintains a constant<br />
level of cooling, irrespective of the weather<br />
conditions of temperature either outside the<br />
building or inside the production hall, and hence<br />
guarantees top-quality products.<br />
Therein, the ideal conditions for obtaining the<br />
perfect product after cooling depend on:<br />
First, a constant temperature where the set<br />
temperature (between 15 and 25 degrees) can be<br />
Besides, to help reduce the energy costs for the<br />
process air, fresh outside air can be partly taken<br />
into the circuit as well. However, this must be<br />
filtered before entering the cooler, which is why<br />
the Advanced Cooling system offers mechanical<br />
f i l t e r s i n v a r i o u s f o r m a t s a n d f i l t e r<br />
classifications. Ultraviolet light can also be used<br />
to keep the air free of microorganisms.<br />
Designed to Meet Client's Specific Needs<br />
Also, Advanced Cooling spirals are designed in<br />
line with each client's specific needs, based on the<br />
required capacity and retention time. They are<br />
available in various belt lengths, as single or<br />
double-drum systems, and in any belt width as<br />
necessary. Advanced spiral cooler belts are<br />
usually made of stainless steel (with or without a<br />
mesh overlay) or plastic, and are available in a<br />
choice of colors.<br />
Air-Conditioning Units Are Installed Widely<br />
The air-Conditioning Units can not only be<br />
installed within the production area, which<br />
namely on top of the insulated spiral enclosure,<br />
but also can be installed outdoors in which case<br />
stainless-steel units are available.<br />
