Ice cream extrusion line

Tetra Pak has launched a new high capacity extrusion line for the large scale production of ice cream sticks and sandwiches.

The new line delivers up to 43,200 pieces per hour against an industry average of 36,000 for this segment, according to the company. The efficient freezer and high precision cutting equipment promise a uniform product with high stability – due to effective temperature control at every stage – as well as identical thickness. Further along the process, the newly developed dip and transfer unit allows a gentle and precise dipping, as well as a careful and error-free lay off to the wrapper, resulting in minimal product waste.

The line allows greater flexibility in switching between ice cream sticks and sandwiches, as well as handling up to four flavours and 12 different coatings without changing equipment.
