Bag unpacking and fruit shedding station
Processed products: frozen raspberries, frozen bananas, frozen peach puree.

The deagglomeration station for frozen fruit and frozen purée consists of an open hopper, equipped with a tray for depositing the containers, which is used to discharge IQF blocks. A GR70 granulator is positioned under this hopper to ensure the separation and crumbling of these frozen blocks. A support holds the station in place above the customer tank.
A two-hand control ensures that the equipment is controlled safely.

A central operator access platform provides access to the discharge/crushing station, the deagglomeration station and the control cabinet. It also allows the pallet containing the IQF cardboard boxes to be positioned.
