AeroFreeze spiral
Aerofreeze tunnel

Premium spiral freezing with superior hygienic design and product integrity

The AeroFreeze spiral is a high-performance IQF spiral freezer and chiller designed for precise temperature control, gentle product handling, and consistent freezing results across all product types.

Using advanced horizontal airflow technology, the system ensures uniform air distribution across every tier - delivering fast, even freezing while minimizing dehydration and preserving product quality, texture, and yield.

Food Safety. High product yield. Long continuous running time

The AeroFreeze spiral is engineered for maximum performance and reliability in demanding production environments:

Horizontal airflow technology ensures even temperature distribution and optimal heat transfer for freezing quality and high product yield
Precise temperature control enables consistent results and protects product structure and appearance
Extended operating time with advanced frost management systems (SPCS and sequential defrost) – up to multiple days without defrost
Fully welded hygienic design eliminates dirt traps and supports the highest food safety standards
External drive and fan motor options improve accessibility, hygiene, and ease of maintenance
Integrated cleaning solutions (CIP) reduce cleaning time, water usage, and operational costs

Flexible and configurable design - customized your process, layout, and capacity

Built on a modular platform, the AeroFreeze spiral can be configured to match any production requirement:

Single or twin drum configurations with up to 38 tiers
Wide range of belt widths, pitches, and turn radii
Customizable infeed/outfeed layouts for seamless line integration
Compact or large-scale systems for capacities from low to very high throughput

High-performance flow freezing with precision control

The AeroFreeze tunnel is a premium IQF flow belt freezer designed for precise pre-cooling, crust freezing, and final freezing of food products. Built with advanced airflow and multi-zone temperature control, it ensures optimal product handling, consistent quality, and efficient operation.

A cascade belt system combined with belt vibrators enables perfect product fluidization through distinct freezing stages—delivering rapid crust formation followed by gentle, uniform final freezing. This approach ensures high IQF quality, minimal product damage, and reduced clumping, even for delicate products such as fruits, vegetables, and seafood.

Food Safety. Flexible configuration. Proven performance.

The AeroFreeze tunnel is engineered to maximize both product quality and process efficiency:

Multi-zone temperature control allows precise adjustment of freezing profiles across pre-cooling, crusting, and final freezing zones
Cascade belt system enables optimized product distribution, agitation, and freezing uniformity
Gentle product fluidization minimizes clumping and preserves product integrity and appearance
High-efficiency evaporator design ensures uniform refrigerant distribution and optimal heat transfer with reduced energy consumption
Advanced frost management systems (SRS & sequential defrost) enable long operating times with stable performance and minimal interruptions
Hygienic design according to 3-A and EHEDG principles with fully welded structures and easy access for cleaning
Integrated CIP systems reduce cleaning time, water usage, and operational costs while ensuring food safety

Flexible and scalable design - customized your production requirements

With a modular platform and multiple configuration options, AeroFreeze tunnel adapts to a wide range of applications and capacities:

Available in multiple belt widths and configurations
Choice of stainless steel or plastic modular belts
Internal or external fan motor setups
Configurable layouts for different product types and production flows
Solutions ranging from compact units to high-capacity systems exceeding 30,000 kg/h for potato freezing applications
