The WS Series Ice Cream Freezer

 

The WS Series Ice Cream Freezer– Meeting Tomorrow's Challenges Today.

 

The WS Series Ice Cream Freezer is the leading example of why the industry relies on WCB Ice Cream for the most advanced solutions to their ice cream process needs.

1.Color Touch Screen for easier operator control and operation.

2.All stainless steel frame, refrigeration jacket, and internal piping.

3.Open design for easy cleaning and maintenance access.

4.Easy to operate.

5.Dasher drive through gear reduction.

6.Design meets latest 3A Sanitary Standards.

7.Low maintenance costs.

The WS Series Freezers are designed to assure efficient control of the process. A choice of manual, semi-automatic or fully
automatic models allows selection of the level of control that fits the production demands.

All WS Series Freezers are approved to apply the 3-A Sanitary Standards Symbol and comply with all amendments thereto.
Furthermore the WS Series Freezers comply with all European Safety Standards and are CE marked.

Consistent Viscosity at Any Flow Rate

Semi-automatic and automatic WS Series Freezers feature the WCB proven Viscotrol. Viscotrol maintains constant ice cream
viscosity whether it is stiff and dry for extrusions or soft and flowable for mold filling. This helps maintain filling accuracy and extrusion portion control.

 

Precise Overrun Control for Repeatable Profitability

Superior overrun control is a major advantage common to all WS Series Freezers. Variations are virtually eliminated through
the use of a product discharge pump. This feature effectively isolates the freezer cylinder from high downstream pressures
often encountered in extrusion applications.

A variable ratio pump system enables production of low and high overruns by metering both mix and air into the freezing
cylinder. Mix metering is accomplished by maintaining constant cylinder pressure.

The result is accurate and repeatable control over a wide range of overrun settings, providing uniform freezing and
consistent product delivery to the filler, extruder, or molder with precise control of mix and air metering.

 

Dasher Choices to Suit Your Product

It is easy to customize any of the WS Series Freezers to suit the application. WCB offers a choice of two dashers suited to
all varieties of frozen product formulations, viscosities, textures and overruns. Both feature rugged stainless steel constructions
with hardened stainless steel scraper blades.

 

Type 30 Standard Open Dasher

Used for most frozen desserts. Displaces approximately 30% of cylinder volume. The blade-carrying frame, designed for heavy duty use, diverts the product directly to the reaction-driven beater for maximum intermixing and thorough air incorporation.

 

 

 

Type 80 Dasher
Optional dasher for special applications requiring stiff, dry appearing ice cream at a given temperature. Displaces approximately 80% of cylinder volume, resulting in rapid development of small and uniform ice crystals.Not all ice cream formulations are compatable with the type 80 dasher. Consult with WCB Ice Cream's specialists for these applications.

 

 

Optional Pre-aeration

An optional pre-aerator provides an even distribution of air cells reducing variations in overrun and improving filling accuracy. The pre-aerator mechanically shears the overrun air
and mix prior to entering the freezing barrel. Also, pre-aeration has shown to improve product texture and consistency especially on low solids and/or low fat products. For molded stick novelty applications, normal shrinkage can be reduced up to 50%. An exploded view of a CR Mixer is pictured above.

 

 

Choose the Level of Control You Need from Three Basic Designs

 

WS Series Freezer with Manual Control
The manual control design provides the most economical capital investment, while incorporating the same basic quality components as the other WS Series Freezer models.
1.Positive displacement rotary lobe pumps with rubber covered rotors and CIP bypass covers
2.All-electric variable frequency pump drives

3.TEFC dasher motor
4.Panel mounted switches for dasher, refrigeration, pumps, bypass covers and hot gas control
5.Adjustable overrun control from 8% to 150%
6.Stall monitor for freeze-up prevention

 

 

WS Series Freezer with Semi- Automatic Control
Includes controls for providing the optimum semi-automatic processing package. Contains all of the features of the WS Series Freezer Manual models and the following:

1.Electronic controllers of overrun and viscosity.
2.Control and display of cylinder pressure*
3.Optional Waukesha pumps with mix flow meter.
4.Airmass flow meter for overrun control from 8% to 150%
5.Mix and ice cream temperature display*
6.Adjustable cylinder pressure*

 

WS Series Freezer with Fully Automatic Control

Fully automatic, user-friendly control design incorporates all of WCB's technology leadership. Contains features of the WS Series Freezer Manual and Semi-Automatic models and the following:

1.Color Touch Screen for easier operator control and operation.
2.Simplified display format requires less opetator training.

3.Storage increased to 150 product settings.
4.On screen function keys for automatic sequencing of Start-Up, Shut-Down, CIP, Sanitize, Hold and Defrost.

5.Scheduled preventative maintenance alerts.
6.Display of production data, bar graphs and mimic screen.
7.Offers both Temperature Control and Viscosity Control.

 

 

 

WS Series Freezer with Measured Value Semi-Automatic Control
WS Series Freezers with all of the features of the manual model but without the *-marked features above are available upon request, providing an optimum production freezer.
