GEA Aquarius PopCooler B
High cooling capacity ensures maximum rentention of quality and ball shape
Working principle
After Forming the lollipops on the FlexFormer machine the ball or cylindrical or round 3D lollipops are transported out of the forming machine via a transporting belt towards the PopCooler B. On the food-grade certified belts the lollipops are being cooled approximately 4 - 6 minutes with use of ambient air.
Following options are available on all the GEA Aquarius PopCooler B machines: variable controlled air ventilation and discharge belt to transport the lollipops out of the cooler to work height
- Variable controlled air ventilation
- Food grade trays (patented)
- High cooling capacity ensures maximum rentention of quality and ball shape
- Easy to operate, process parameters controllable
- Low maintenance

GEA Insights

The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.

Beyond the machine: unlocking better plant performance
An efficient machine does not automatically make an efficient factory. Real improvement often starts by looking beyond individual equipment and understanding how processes, energy systems and operating decisions affect one another. It’s a holistic approach designed to uncover opportunities that might otherwise be missed.

How a valve reshapes the way food and drinks are made
In food and beverage plants, valves are commonly operated using compressed air. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology moves valves with water instead, in a closed, digitally controlled circuit. The result is a valve that can be held exactly in place and steered in fine-tuned steps. This results in lower energy use and greater control.
