This APV F8720-3 is a used confectionery machine, available from a seller located in Spain. APV is a well-established manufacturer with a long history in food processing and related industrial equipment, supplying machinery to sectors including dairy, beverage, bakery, and confectionery production.
The unit is a multiplate freezer, sometimes referred to as a plate freezer, designed to freeze product in solid, uniform blocks by pressing it between a series of refrigerated plates. This format is widely used in food processing operations where consistent block dimensions and high throughput are required. The machine uses ammonia as its refrigerant, a common choice in industrial food freezing for its thermodynamic efficiency and reliability at scale.
The freezer is configured with 33 plates, with a gap of 80 mm between each plate. This inter-plate spacing determines the thickness of the frozen blocks produced and corresponds directly to the block dimensions on offer. The frozen blocks measure 1,140 mm × 580 mm × 80 mm, a substantial format suited to downstream processing, storage, or onward distribution. The seller's notes state a production capacity of 500 kg per hour when freezing vegetable product, giving a clear benchmark for throughput under that specific application, though actual output will vary depending on the product being processed and operating conditions.
