1. Application in Mooncake Production

In the automated mooncake production line, the Vertical Cooling Tower is a key supporting equipment. After the mooncakes are baked out of the oven, they are forced to cool by air through a cooling tower to quickly reduce the temperature of the mooncakes, prevent residual temperature from causing deformation or excessive flow of the filling, and ensure that the mooncakes form beautifully. The cooled mooncakes can be directly packaged or temporarily stored in the cooling tower, waiting for unified packaging, improving production efficiency and packaging aesthetics, and meeting the large-scale production needs in the Mid-Autumn Festival and other peak sales seasons.

2. Application in Burger Cake Production

Cooling towers also play an important role in the automated production of hamburger cakes. The temperature of freshly baked hamburger cake is relatively high, and direct packaging may affect the packaging quality and product taste. Through the multi-layered conveyor belt of the cooling tower, the hamburger cake is gradually cooled by natural or forced convection, forming a suitable crispy crust on the surface and maintaining a soft and fluffy interior. The cooled hamburger cake can be temporarily stored in the tower, waiting for subsequent packaging or ingredient addition to ensure stable product quality and improve the continuity and flexibility of the production process.

3. Application in Bar Production

On the automated production line of the bar, it can be customized according to the production rhythm and cooling requirements of the bar. The body of the baguette is relatively large and the cooling time is relatively long. The cooling tower is designed with reasonable layers and heights to provide sufficient cooling space for the baguette. During the cooling process, natural or forced convection of air takes away the heat from the surface and interior of the bread, gradually cooling and shaping the dough, forming a unique hard shell on the surface, and the internal tissue is delicate and elastic. The cooled rod can be directly stored in the temporary storage area, waiting for packaging or delivery to ensure that the quality of the product is not affected during transportation and sales.

4. Applications in the Production of Other Baked Goods

In addition to the common baked goods mentioned above, Air Cooled Cooling Tower can also be widely used in the automated production of various baked goods such as biscuits, cookies, pastries, etc. For foods of different shapes, sizes, and processing requirements, cooling towers can meet their specific cooling needs by adjusting parameters such as wind speed, number of layers, and conveying speed. In some food production processes that require fermentation technology, customized cooling towers can provide a suitable fermentation environment, achieve the integration of cooling, storage, and fermentation, improve production efficiency and equipment utilization, and save space and costs for enterprises.

1. Daily cleaning and inspection
