Ice cream machine STAFF Ice system 1959 BFX400

The STAFF Ice system BFX400 is an electronical batch freezer designed for professional use.

This type of batch freezer operates by chilling a mixture while it is agitated. The internal mixer, equipped with a polyethylene rasp blade, continuously scrapes the sides of the freezing chamber. This action prevents ice crystals from forming too large, which is crucial for achieving a smooth texture in frozen products. The process removes heat from the product mixture, transforming it into a frozen dessert or ice cream.

To operate the BFX400, ingredients are loaded into the 5 L batch chamber. The unit has a double lid, allowing for the addition of further ingredients while the mixing and freezing cycle is in progress. The mixer's rasp blade, made of polyethylene, provides effective scraping. Once the batch is frozen to the desired consistency, it can be dispensed. The unit has acoustic and visual malfunction indicators to alert the user to any issues.

Construction of the BFX400 includes stainless steel for all parts that come into contact with food, alongside non-toxic materials. These components are designed for easy access and removal, facilitating cleaning. It offers over 50 user-tailored programs and includes a PC connection port for configuring internal parameters.

The 40 L/h capacity indicates the volume of product the freezer can produce per hour. The 5 L volume refers to the size of each individual batch that can be processed. The unit's dimensions are 600 mm in length, 836 mm in width, and 1335 mm in height. It operates on a 400 V electrical supply and has a weight of 180 kg.

Cleaning involves the removal and access of parts in contact with food, which are made of stainless steel and non-toxic materials.
