SAUCE, SOUP, GRAVY, PURÉe OR FLAVORING IN PRECISE FROZEN PORTIONS
Pellet and Dot Freezing
Linde has developed an easy to use, cryogen-supplemented system that's cost effective to make pellets or dots in any shape or size. This new CRYOLINE® PE pellet and dot technology delivers the line flexibility and speed of cryogenics to boost productivity and reduce packaging costs. The pellet or dot depositor system allows the processor to customize and select the desired shape and size for each end product. This is a valuable benefit for production lines running more than one product and help processors meet the need for the variety of frozen meals and side dishes customers desire.

Uniformly Shaped Dots
