Perfector® 180: Advanced Crystallization for Fat-Based Products

Versatile Product Applications

Ideal for producing consumer margarine, industrial margarine, shortening, low-fat spreads, recombined butter, and butter blends.

Engineered for Efficiency

Equipped with up to 6 chilling tubes and 4 cooling systems. Compatible with ammonia or Freon for flexible refrigerant choices.

Function and Principles of Operation

Core Crystallization Mechanism

Utilizes a scraped surface heat exchanger (SSHE) where centrifugal scraping ensures consistent crystallization performance, regardless of product texture.

Anti-Freezing Design During Downtime

Built-in drop tank quickly evacuates refrigerant from the cooling jacket during production pauses to prevent freeze-up.

Production Capacity

Output Range

Handles up to 12.9 tonnes per hour.
