M+W Zander: Utility model for new cooling tunnel registered
* European patent procedure * M+W Zander building engineering
developed a new cooling tunnel for the foodstuffs industry and as
utility model on its names register to let. Parallel to it a patent
procedure was introduced with the European patent office in Munich.
The so-called intermittent cooling tunnel makes for the first time
different cooling times possible for everyone particulars of the
pallets in a cooling tunnel. That saves energy and shortens the
production time. In the context of the patent procedure the European
patent office communicated its intention in Munich recently of giving
on the M+W Zander registration a European patent. * In the new
intermittent cooling tunnel of M+W Zander can be specifically adjusted
the cooling time after the respective assembly of a pallet. Must
remain thus for no more all pallets so for a long time in the tunnel,
until also the last pallet reached its END temperature.Accordingly the intermittent cooling tunnel shortens the production
times and reduces the energy consumption. Core element of the
intermittent procedure is the M+W Zander - air concept for cooling
tunnels. The air, which is needed for the cooling of a pallet, can be
used doubly. In the foodstuffs industry enterprises cool their
products immediately after the racking, in order to secure the high
quality standard of their products. In addition the products in all
rule palettenweise roll over haulage systems in cooling tunnels. On
the way by the cooling tunnel -- the turn-around time depends on the
product, which requires the longest cooling time -- they are so far so
for a long time cooled down, until also the last pallet achieved the
prescribed temperature ("continuous procedure"). With large product
varieties leads that so far to unnecessarily large plants and high
energy consumption.The intermittent cooling tunnel could be already sold to first
customers and one of the main topics on the M+W Zander exhibition
booth (10,1, conditions C 48 resounded) during the ANUGA FoodTec of
this year from 4 to 7 April in Cologne will be. A diagram (cross
