⬇️THIS AGRIFLEX SOLUTION ENABLES THE AUTOMATION OF INGREDIENT COOLING TASKS
Controlling the dough’s temperature has always been a key factor in achieving optimal and consistent quality of the finished product. Stable and controllable parameters lead to a reduction in time and costs.
❄️To solve this issue we have created product cooling machinery using an innovative technology – patented by Agriflex – that makes it possible to decrease the dough's temperature by as much as 20°C, ensuring a constant and homogeneous temperature through self-regulation.
➡️The Dough Cooling System
We designed two units – a shell and tube air cooling unit and a handling unit -, in the cooling and dehumidification system the pressurised air is channelled through the heat exchanger, where it meets a circuit in which the refrigerant circulates.
The air then undergoes the progressive condensation of the humid part along the path inside the exchanger. Subsequently, the appropriately structured air handling unit separates and drains all residual condensate. At the outset of this system, the operator can obtain completely dried cold air.
💡The advantages that our cooling solutions offer are many:
1. No mixing
Thanks to the closed circuit, the raw materials are not mixed with ice or other cooling elements, thus being fully compliant with the recipe and meeting health and hygiene regulations.

2. No thermal stress
With this automated system, temperatures are always constant and controlled. As a result, the system does not cause risky and detrimental thermal stress to the flour and – consequently – to the dough.
3. Simplicity and efficiency
The system is extremely economical in energy consumption, and thanks to its ease of use, it does not require skilled labour.
We have developed the Dough Cooling System, transforming a real and specific customer problem into a value-added solution. This is our approach, that distinguishes us in creating innovative solutions for 50 years.
