Radio Frequency Defrosting Technology

Radio Frequency Defrosting: STALAM RF1 x 7KW

For the first time on a Heat and Control tradeshow booth, Heat and Control will have on display the STALAM Radio Frequency (RF) defrosting technology, which can defrost a wide range of products including meat, fish, seafood, vegetables, fruit and dairy products within minutes.

The STALAM Radio Frequency (RF) defrosting technology can rapidly generate heat volumetrically within the product, and the heating process is uniform and controlled, resulting in a significant reduction of drip losses.
 

Equipment on show:

• STALAM RF1 x 7KW

Inspection systems

Ishida DACS checkweigher combined with a CEIA MS21 Metal Detector

Heat and Control will be displaying the latest X-ray systems and metal detectors from world-class manufacturers Ishida and CEIA.

Ishida are renowned for building some of the most robust X-ray detection systems that safely and effectively inspect your products for foreign matter such as bone, stone and glass; and defects such as shading variations, cracks and splits. X-ray emissions from Ishida machines are safe for the operator, with exposure only taking place within the inspection tunnel, and for the inspected products themselves, with X-ray absorption well below 0.1 Gy.

CEIA are leaders in metal detection systems for a wide range of industries, including food and pharmaceuticals. Their range of THS detectors identify both magnetic and nonmagnetic metals, including high-resistivity stainless steel. An automatic tracking function cancels out any variation caused by the product being inspected, which significantly reduces false alarms and in turn reduces production downtime and product loss. The THS line of metal detectors have been adopted by leading companies in the food, chemical, textile and pharmaceutical fields.
 

Equipment on show:

• Ishida IX-GA-4075 – X-ray Inspection System
• Ishida DACS-EL – Checkweigher
• CEIA MS21 – Metal Detector
