GEA A-Tec and GEA E-Tec spiral freezers and coolers are specially designed for sensitive food. The GEA products feature the Intralox direct-drive system, in which the Acetal conveyor belts are directly geared to the drive drum. These direct-drive systems primarily benefit the manufacturers of deep-fried, breaded, and sugar-glazed products because unlike conventional systems, direct-drive systems are not affected by sugar or fat dripping, decreasing friction between the drum and conveyor belt.
