Successfully reduced defrosting time! Unexpected benefits beyond just time-saving!

The challenges of refrigerator defrosting: defrosting time, quality, and space. What improvements in yield and changes in the workplace were felt after implementation, and what are the uses beyond defrosting?

This is a defrosting machine designed for food manufacturing and processing sites, capable of handling large-scale defrosting from 100 kg to several tons per day. It can be customized according to processing volume and installation environment, achieving uniform and high-quality defrosting. After defrosting, it can maintain freshness, contributing to the efficiency of work processes and improving yield. 【Customer Feedback】 ■Challenges Before Introduction Previously, defrosting was done in a refrigerator, taking 2 to 3 days in summer and up to a week in winter. Variability in defrosting quality, workspace, and time was also an issue, prompting us to consider the introduction of DEPAK with the construction of a new factory. ■Reasons for Choosing DEPAK We conducted preliminary tests with chicken thighs and pork thighs. As a result, we confirmed improvements in defrosting yield and quality, as well as a reduction in cleaning burden due to decreased drip loss, leading to our decision to implement it. ■Effects After Introduction The machine can defrost the center and outer parts of ingredients uniformly, reducing the burden on the slicer. The condition after slicing is also good, allowing defrosting while maintaining freshness. It is also appealing that it can be used for freshness preservation (refrigeration) when not in use for defrosting. It is recommended for fresh processing plants that prioritize the inherent flavor of meat and cut yield, as well as factories that want to defrost according to production plans. ■Installation Site: Quix Co., Ltd.
