Description
Ice Cream Processing Plant
Technical specification
-Reception and storage of raw materials:
Dry products used in comparatively small quantities, such as whey powder, stabilizers and emulsifiers, cocoa powder, etc., are usually delivered in bags. Sugar and milk powder can be delivered in containers. Liquid products such as milk, cream, condensed milk, liquid glucose and vegetable fats are delivered by tankers.
-Formulation:
The ingredients used in ice cream production line are: fat?milk solids-non-fat (MSNF)?sugar/non-sugar sweetener?emulsifiers/stabilizers?flavouring agents?colouring agents.
-Weighing, measuring and mixing:
Generally speaking, all dry ingredients are weighed, whereas liquid ingredients can be either weighed or proportioned by volumetric meters.
-Homogenization and pasteurization:
The ice cream mix flows through a filter to a balance tank and is pumped from there to a plate heat exchanger where it is preheated to 73 – 75C for homogenization at 140 – 200 bar, the mix is pasteurized at 83 – 85C for about 15 seconds then cooled down to 5C and transferred to an ageing tank.
-Ageing:
The mix must be aged for at least 4 hours at a temperature between 2 to 5C with continuous gentle agitation. Ageing allows time for the stabilizer to take effect and the fat to crystallize.
-Continuous freezing:
•to whip a controlled amount of air into the mix;
•to freeze the water content in the mix to a large number of small ice crystals.
-Filling in cups, cones and containers;
-Extrusion of sticks and stickless products;
-Moulding of bars
-Wrapping and packaging
-Hardening and cold storage

Bulk manufacturing
Bulk manufacturers of Ice Cream Processing Plant in China
We manufacture Ice Cream Processing Plant in volume in China and quote directly from the production line, which means the unit price is built from the actual order quantity rather than taken off a price list. Buyers importing ice cream processing plant in bulk send a target quantity and a delivery window, and the quotation comes back with unit cost at that volume, packing dimensions, gross weight and container fill confirmed. On repeat orders the specification is held on file, so a second consignment is quoted against the same build rather than re-specified from the beginning.
Specification is not fixed. Voltage, phase and frequency are set for your country, and capacity, feed size, material contact parts and control options are decided before production starts. Private-label and OEM builds are available at volume, including brand plate, operating manual and carton artwork in your name. Lead time is normally three to six weeks in the factory for a made-to-order machine, plus sea transit; stocked items move in seven to ten working days.
If you are still narrowing down the specification, the wider processing plant range is worth comparing before you send the enquiry.
- Factory-direct pricingUnit cost banded by quantity, held for the validity period on the quotation.

- Container planningWe confirm the fill for a 20ft, 40ft or 40ft high-cube before you commit.
- Repeat ordersBuild specification kept on file so a second order is quoted against the same machine.
Export and shipping
Importing Ice Cream Processing Plant from China
Buying Ice Cream Processing Plant out of China means clearing it as much as shipping it. We classify the HS code before quoting, and the consignment travels with a commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, and where the destination requires them a fumigation certificate and marine insurance certificate. Terms are quoted FOB from the loading port for buyers with their own forwarder, or CIF to your named port where you would prefer the freight arranged for you.
Export packing is sized for the journey: seaworthy crates, moisture barriers and shock protection appropriate to the transit time to your port. Multiple ranges going to the same buyer are consolidated onto one bill of lading, which lowers the landed cost and cuts the clearance paperwork. Installation drawings, operating manuals and a spare parts list travel with the consignment as standard.

Buyer questions
Ice Cream Processing Plant — frequently asked
Anything not covered here, put it in your enquiry and we will answer it with the quotation.
Email the sales deskWhat is the minimum order quantity for Ice Cream Processing Plant?
It depends on the item. Capital machinery is available from one unit upwards for project and tender supply, while tools and consumables are manufactured in production runs and quoted by pallet or container. Pricing is banded by quantity rather than taken from a published list — send your quantity and we will confirm which band applies.
Can Ice Cream Processing Plant be manufactured to our own specification?
It can. Electrical supply is matched to your country, and capacity, feed size, material contact parts and controls are decided before production starts. Private-label builds with your brand plate and manuals are available at volume.
What is the production lead time for a bulk order?
Made-to-order machines typically take three to six weeks in production, plus sea freight transit to your port. Ready-stock items dispatch within seven to ten working days. Exact lead time is confirmed in writing on the quotation.
Can we inspect the goods before shipment?
Yes. Every consignment goes through in-process checks and a pre-dispatch inspection, and the photographed report is shared for your approval before the container is sealed. Third-party inspection by SGS, Bureau Veritas or an agency you nominate can be built into the terms.
What are your payment and shipping terms?
Terms are set on the proforma invoice and depend on order value and destination. Advance payment by telegraphic transfer against a proforma invoice is standard, and irrevocable letters of credit are accepted on larger capital orders. Shipping is quoted FOB from the port of loading or CIF to a named destination port.
Do you supply spare parts and documentation?
Installation drawings, an operating manual and a spare parts list are issued with every machine. Spares can be ordered against the original build specification, which we keep on file, and for plant-scale orders commissioning support can be arranged at quotation stage.
