Project Description
When one of America’s largest frozen pizza manufacturer’s decided it was time to replace their existing convection oven pre-melters, they selected The CMM Group to fulfill their needs. An infrared pre-melter, also commonly known as an IR cheese pre-melter, emits a flash of heat to the top of a frozen pizza to gently fuse the cheese and additional toppings together. This process reduces topping movement during the packaging and distribution processes. The CMM Group custom engineered the equipment to allow the manufacturer the freedom to choose between multiple recipe options through the use of adjustable temperature and line speeds. The unit was tailored to fit precisely within the vacated footprint of their previous system. An integrated removable conveyor, also designed by CMM, aids in the cleaning and sanitation process, while working in conjunction with the customer’s full line spiral freezer.
