Prepared and ready meal freezing
The freezing problem
Ready meals freeze as they are sold: in trays and boxes. Trays are bulky and easily crushed, boxed entrees need even freezing through the pack, and a mixed menu means the freezer sees a new product form every shift.
What fits, and why
Single spiral freezers carry trays evenly — the belt's consistent linear speed suits extrusion-sensitive packed products — shelf plate freezers freeze boxed meals by contact, and double spirals take the volume when the line grows.
