Frequently asked questions
What counts as large or factory-scale gelato equipment?
Batch freezers from 110 kg of gelato an hour, such as the Labo 80 120 XP, and beyond that continuous freezers for factory volumes of up to 1,500 litres of ice cream an hour. Smaller volumes are covered by the mid-size range.
What does an ice cream production line include?
Mix preparation, pasteurising, continuous freezing, filling and forming, hardening and cold storage. Tell us your volumes and products and we will specify the line.
How much can the largest batch freezers make?
The Labo 80 120 XP makes up to 120 kg of gelato an hour, 20 kg a batch, on 400 V three-phase power (10 kW, 32 A). The Labotronic HE-H 25 110 makes up to 110 kg of mix an hour, about 152 L of gelato.
How big do the blast freezers go?
Techfrost trolley models run from the MB40 (70 kg frozen per cycle) to the MBF920, which takes six trolleys and freezes 720 kg in a 240-minute cycle or chills 1,050 kg in 90 minutes.
What infrastructure does a large line need?
Large batch freezers and pasteurisers run on 400 V three-phase power and water cooling. For a production line we review power, water, drainage and floor space with you before we quote.
Do you service factory equipment?
Yes. Our national service team supports Carpigiani and Techfrost machines with genuine parts and preventive maintenance.
Can I start smaller and scale up?
Yes. Many customers begin with an Entry package or mid-size equipment and add capacity as sales grow.
