With UVC surface disinfection, packaging materials, tools and food products are disinfected quickly and reliably – in a dry process without heat exposure or unwanted additives and residues.

Reliable UVC surface disinfection of food products as well as packaging materials and tools

The flow-through lock for UVC surface disinfection was developed in close cooperation with KRONEN's partner sterilAir®. The UVC Lock is a reliable and quick solution for reducing surface contamination during transfer to the hygiene area. Dry disinfection takes place without heat exposure and without undesirable additives or residues. The highly efficient UVC technology leads to excellent disinfection performance with a short contact time. This also results in the compact design of the machine and its practical use, even for heat-sensitive products.

The products are brought onto the conveyor belt manually or in a processing line via the infeed belt and are guided through a screened area with UVC emitter tubes. The UVC Lock enables disinfection from all sides, while the efficient arrangement of the UVC emitters ensures a virtually complete radiation area. The stainless steel mesh conveyor belt ensures the minimum possible shading of the product from below. At the belt outfeed, the disinfected product is discharged, for example into the high-care area.

A wide range of application options:

The UVC Lock is frequently used for the surface disinfection of boxes, tools, packaging materials (e.g. buckets or cans), outer packaging of food products (e.g. sausages), and fruit and vegetable products before further processing, e.g. cabbages or pre-peeled onions and carrots.

The capacity depends on the product and the contact time, which determines the degree of germ reduction. Cabbages, for example, can be disinfected at a rate of up to 3,000 kg/h at belt speeds of 0.05 to 0.3 m/s. If transport boxes (600 x 400 mm) are used, this figure increases to up to 900 units per hour at a belt speed of 0.2 m/s.

Please note: The disinfection of food products depends on the country-specific statutory regulations.

The DEW 200 dewatering press removes excess liquid from pickled or defrosted vegetables or canned vegetables. The products are therefore drained gently, and draining times are reduced.

Efficient and gentle removal of excess liquid instead of long draining times

The DEW 200 dewatering press has been especially designed to efficiently remove excess liquid from canned, pickled or defrosted vegetables. The machine is simple and can be operated by one person.

The product to be dewatered, such as canned mushrooms, pickled or defrosted vegetables, is filled into the perforated standard container (200 l). The mobile standard container is inserted into the DEW 200 and held in a fixed position by means of a snap-in mechanism. The minimum filling height in the standard container is 50 mm. After starting the machine, a plate is lowered onto the product. The product is gently dewatered by the pressure applied evenly via this plate.

The DEW 200 is perfect for use in companies wanting to further process pre-processed pickled or defrosted products with reduced liquid, fr example for the production of various sliced cold meats or fillings of any kind.

up to 1,600 kg/h Max. capacity

As the top model of the KRONEN vegetable and lettuce spin-dryers, the KS-100 PLUS offers an ergonomic design, a counter-rotating centrifuge cycle and 99 program memory locations for the efficient drying of lettuce, vegetables, fruit and many more food products.

Optimal spinning results and hygiene PLUS user-friendly operation

The KS-100 PLUS is used by customers worldwide to spin-dry a wide variety of products, from lettuce to cut vegetables and fruit through to canned products, pickled food products or caviar. The KS-100 PLUS vegetable and lettuce spin-dryer can be integrated into processing lines or used as a stand-alone machine. As a component of processing lines, it is positioned downstream of the washing process, after which the washed products are filled into the spin baskets and manually placed into the KS-100 PLUS.

The robust, open design enables

• ergonomic operation due to the low lift-in height
• optimal hygiene: no dirt traps due to screws etc. in the spinning area
• easy water drainage for an optimal spin-drying result

The spin-dryer is suitable for processing lettuce, herbs, cut fruit and vegetables and many other products. For example, it also reduces the draining times of canned products such as mushrooms and pickled vegetables or even defrosted products. Other food products such as prawns, caviar (substitute) or even sesame seeds can also be dewatered/dried with the spin-dryer. Mesh inserts for the spin baskets are optionally available for fine-particle products. Depending on the product, the machine achieves high capacities and a low residual moisture in the products.

up to 1,250 kg/h Max. capacity

Versatile, efficient and proven: the multifunctional machine for the precise and gentle cutting of a wide variety of food products including lettuce, vegetables and fruit, in very large quantities.

Versatile and with a high output: up to 4,000 kg of product per hour cut precisely and gently

The GS 20 is used for cutting, pulling/shredding and grating an extremely wide variety of products in large quantities. The multifunctional belt slicer can flexibly cut many types of food products: lettuce, vegetables, fruit, herbs, meat, cold meats, fish, vegan substitute products and baked goods. Just like the GS 10-2, it is therefore ideal for a wide range of applications and sectors. It processes even higher capacities: depending on the product and cutting type, up to 4,000 kilograms of product per hour.

Versatile application options:

The cutting machine can be used flexibly for various applications, for example:

• Cutting cooked chicken breast into slices
• Cutting cabanossi or bockwurst sausage into slices
• Cutting cooked meat into strips or pulling it apart to make "pulled beef"
• Cutting or shredding fish, for example salmon
• Cutting or shredding vegan meat substitutes
• Cutting iceberg lettuce into strips or shreds
• Cutting cabbage into strips or shreds
• Grating carrots or cutting them into sticks or slices

Used in thousands of applications, successful worldwide: the multifunctional machine cuts almost all food products – including lettuce, vegetables and fruit, of course - effectively, precisely and gently.
