CIM

Melt ice flakes and speed up your process

Does your industry require efficient and controlled melting of ice flakes for subsequent processing steps?

The Crushed Ice-Melter (CIM) from Fluidor Equipment is designed for melting ice flakes produced by the Drum Dumper Ice Crusher with precise temperature control and seamless integration and flexibility. 

How the CIM works:

  • The hot service water of max. 80°C can be supplied by the operator directly, or created by the steam/hot water heat exchanger that is mounted on the same skid (steam version). This skid can be installed straight next to the Fluidor Drum Dumper Ice Crusher.
  • The product is warmed up in double walled piping with proportionally controlled service water to a homogeneous compound of around 0 °C.
  • The service water will not exceed 50 °C to avoid over-pasteurization of the product. 
  • The required energy for the melting process of the product depends on: structure, specific weight, entrance temperature, specific heat, quantity of insoluble solids (dry solids %), quantity of soluble solids (Brix), pump speed. 
  • The adjustable discharge temperature is normally set just above the melting point of the product with a deviation of approx. 2 °C, depending on the product flow. 
  • The product then can easily be pumped to the next process step by the product pump of the Drum Dumper Ice Crusher.  
Efficient

The CIM efficiently melts ice flakes to create a homogeneous mixture, for a smooth product flow to the next processing step.

Precise

The CIM maintains the product temperature just above the melting point without exceeding 50 °C, preserving the quality of the product.

Flexible

The CIM provides flexibility in installation and operation, making it adaptable to various production environments.

FLUIVAC

Empty liquid and viscous products from process lines

Does your industry wish to recover valuable product and minimise waste?

FLUIVAC from Fluidor Equipment is designed for efficient emptying of liquid and viscous products from process lines up to 100mm. The system can automatically clear up to 300 different production and CIP process lines by programmed recipes.

This innovative, patented system recovers and saves valuable utilities and turns waste into sellable product. Integrate FLUIVAC into your production process and save up to 98% of usable product that’s left in your pipes and components. 

How FLUIVAC works:

FLUIVAC cleans your systems in 4 steps, with sterile filter air and a minimum amount of water: 

1. PUSH
FLUIVAC pushes the product out of the pipes in a controlled manner, with compressed air. This saves 60-70% of your product.

2. BLOW
FLUIVAC blows the rest of the product out of the pipes with an internal compressor, which saves 90 to 98% of your product.

3. RINSE
FLUIVAC uses a small amount of water to flush out the last product from the inner surface, for a visually clean pipe.

4. DRY
FLUIVAC dries the pipes, ready for new production. The next production doesn’t mix with water or other product, so there’s no waste from the start.

When you combine FLUIVAC with your CIP system, you will also save extra water and detergent.

Sustainable

FLUIVAC helps you achieve your sustainability goals. With FLUIVAC, you recover up to 98% of valuable produce and save up to 96% of water plus a lot of energy and time.

High quality

This compact built unit with integrated Siemens or Allen Bradley HMI control panel, consists of a complete configuration of high quality components like compressor, pressure vessels, (control-)valves and sensors.

 

Easy & safe 

FLUIVAC is user-friendly by simple parameter settings for easy process operation. Once set up, it can be integrated in an automatic production process, using PROFINET or Ethernet/IP.
