DutchTecSource is embarking on an exciting new chapter with the launch of the newly redesigned DTS Screw Blancher 2.0.
The company reaffirms its commitment to continuous research and development, with plans to introduce a suite of innovative solutions aimed at enhancing efficiency, durability, and reliability within the food manufacturing industry.
As a leading supplier of blanching, cooling, and cooking technologies for food processing, DutchTecSource notes that the upgraded DTS Screw Blancher brings substantial benefits. These include improved reliability, reduced product breakage, and lower maintenance costs. Following an extensive field testing phase, the Blancher 2.0 is now ready for global introduction.
Before unveiling the new screw blancher, DutchTecSource (DTS) conducted a thorough 18-month testing period at actual production sites. This comprehensive evaluation ensured that the new machine not only met but exceeded performance, reliability, and productivity expectations. It successfully operated under high-capacity, around-the-clock conditions, effectively processing delicate products such as twisted fries, 6×6 mm fries, and waffles.
“This thorough testing allowed us to refine the machine further, ensuring its robustness and superior performance under varied conditions,” explains the DTS team. “The end result is a machine that is now even more reliable and requires less maintenance than its predecessors.”
The new DTS Screw Blancher 2.0 features several key upgrades designed to enhance both performance and operational efficiency:
- No need for a product guide plate: This simplifies the machine’s design while reducing the potential for product damage and mechanical failure.
- Improved bearing methodology: This ensures smoother, more efficient operation with reduced wear and tear.
- Modified seals: These enhance durability and longevity, leading to decreased maintenance needs.
Together, these enhancements guarantee greater reliability and a more consistent blanching process, ultimately resulting in superior product quality and diminished risk of damage during processing, according to DTS.
One of the standout features of the new DTS Screw Blancher is its ability to minimize the risk of product breakage. With optimized mechanical components, the new blancher significantly reduces the likelihood of damage to sensitive food products, ensuring a smoother and more efficient production process. This advancement is particularly valuable for high-sensitivity items like 6×6 mm fries, twisters, and waffles, which are susceptible to damage from less-precise equipment.
The redesigned blancher substantially decreases maintenance requirements and associated costs. Its robust construction and advanced technical specifications enable the machine to operate with minimal wear and tear, thereby reducing the risk of technical failures. According to DTS, the results speak for themselves:
- Lower downtime: The blancher operates more efficiently, allowing production lines to run longer without interruptions.
- Reduced maintenance costs: Fewer repairs and part replacements translate into lower overall costs for customers.
- Increased productivity: With less time spent on maintenance, companies can concentrate more on production.
“Our customers will experience a considerable reduction in both the time and financial resources spent on machine maintenance,” says DTS. “This is a game changer for businesses seeking more efficient, sustainable, and reliable processing solutions.”
