Batch Freezers

There are 3 main catagories of Batch freezers within the carpigiani range. These are Vertical Batch Freezers, Horizontal Batch Freezers and Presurised Horizontal Batch Freezers.

General Information

These are advanced automatic vertical batch freezers that directly produce and automatically extract ice cream. The LABO is the basic machine for the production of artisan ice cream, it can be found in all corners of the globe producing the highest quality ice cream. The digitally electronic LABOTRONIC DGT range is designed for the professional who wants produce the freshest possible ice cream. The production cycle of these electronic machines can be programmed to perfectly batch freeze any ice cream mix and other specialities. Indeed it is only with the LABOTRONIC DGT that you can produce a wide selection of ice creams but also pocheé fruit and with the version "G", the perfect Sicilian slush. Available in 9 models, (4 of which are electronic) with a batch freezing capacity ranging from 8 to 1000 Kg/hour of mix

The LABO Range

LABO M

The LABO M is Carpigiani's robust horizontal batch freezer, technologically up to date, safe and easy to use. It is built to produce ice cream with the maximum hygiene and can comfortably be used by the expert ice cream maker but also easily by the aspiring artisan.

• 1) Pour a good mix into the machine and turn the switch, this starts an automatic cycle of ice-cream production.
• 2) Once the right consistency has been reached, an acoustic signal alerts you that the ice cream is ready for extraction
• 3) Open the exit door and turn the switch, the ice cream comes out fast and completely.

The LABO M's batch cylinder has a high refrigerating efficiency thanks to its large diameter and direct expansion system. The automatic patented HARD-O-MATIC control system guarantees high quality ice cream, of the correct consistency, whatever the mix.

LABO M

Insulating door with opening, loading and unloading safety device; eccentric clamping mechanism for easy quick door closing and opening; special hinge for easy dismantling and assembly of door. Stainless steel door available on request at additional cost. 3 way monobloc beater with polimeric blades to efficiently treat any mix. Two working speeds: low for the production, high for the extraction. A Wide shelf, which with rubber surface for ice cream tubs, can be adjusted for height. Built-in tap for washing (1 420 model excluded). Tap for putting directly the water in the cylinder for washing Refrigeration plant. Sound proofed to international standards. Water-cooled condenser, or for the areas of poor water supply an air condenser is an option available at a small additional cost. Steel chassis treated with anti-corrosion resins. Stainless steel body. The machine has castors that enable the machine to be moved easily. Wide loading hopper to easily

LABO 170i

The Labo 170I is a floor standing model similar to the Labo M series except is has a much higher hourly production and is designed for continuous operation for large laboratories.

LABO 8 12 E

LABO 8 12 E is a compact counter batch freezer particularly suitable for catering and restaurants,. it is a professional machine to produce excellent artisan ice cream and delicious fruit sorbets. It has been designed utilising the same technology as the big batch freezers of the galateria's laboratory. It is complete, safe and easy to use. It is only necessary to pour the mix in the machine, turn the switch and wait for the extraction's signal.

With the Hard-O-Matic automatic ice-cream consistency control, Labo 8 12 E always ensures consistent production of ice cream and high quality sorbets.

All the components have been designed to guarantee the highest possible standard of hygiene and easy cleaning.

BOIL 5

This is a semi-automatic unit you simply put on the top of the horizontal batch freezer, it is useful to prepare cold mix for sorbet or hot mix for ice cream.

• Pour the mix in the machine and turn the switch to control the cold or hot mixing. To heat up to the pasteurisation temperature you need to select the thermostat at 85º C.
• Once the machine reaches this temperature, the pre-cooling of the mix starts. Pouring the mix into the batch freezer then rapidly completes the cooling.
• The pouring is direct, quick and requires no manipulation.

While the batch freezer is producing the first ice cream, you can pour a new mix into the Boil 5 for heating and start in sequence a continuous production.

The Labotronic Range.

General Features.

The Labotronic machines are the new generation of Carpigiani batch freezers that with their electronic microprocessor rapidly and hygienically produce the highest quality ice cream ever obtained by previous batch freezers. The Carpigiani Labotronic machines - safe, reliable, quiet, and powerful - provide maximum performance and hygiene.

Thanks to the Hard-O-Tronic, the new beater, the low voltage (24 V.) of the auxiliary services and to Carpigiani technology, Labotronic means reduced energy consumption, quality ice cream, safety and easiness of use.

The electronic microprocessor allows the use of any mix in the maximum and minimum quantities without any intervention by the operator.

Hard-O-Tronic

By simply pressing a button, the Hard-O-Tronic, thanks to its self-diagnostics function, selects the ideal ice cream production cycle, constantly checking it and thus guaranteeing a beautiful and flowing ice-cream with any recipe, always achieving the maximum possible consistency.

The flashing of the Hard-O-Tronic monitor and the simultaneous acoustic signal indicate that the ice cream is ready and perfect.

The new Carpigiani beater ensures the consistency and quality of the ice cream thanks to the wide spatulas, which treat ail mixes powerfully and homogeneously.

The scraping elements, which are replaceable, allow total extraction of the ice cream, thus saving time and product.

The Labotronic machines are equipped with all the technology and advantages of the Carpigiani Labo machines, such as:

• A large diameter direct-expansion cylinder.
• Stainless steel door with loading/unloading opening device in conformity with safety standards.
• Hinges for an easy removal of the door.
• Eccentric shutting device for the quick opening of the door.
• Monobloc frame treated with anti-corrosion resins.
• Castors to easily move the machine.
• Wide adjustable-height shelf with a rubber mat for the basins.
• R 502 refrigeration system, suitable for tropical climates.
• Electrical system in conformity with international standards.
• Possibility of pouring in mixes at 85 Deg C.

The ergonomic front position of the electronic controls and monitor makes operations simple and safe, ail it takes is pressing a key: the microprocessor autonomously and reliably controls, manages and checks the production process and the functioning of the machine.

Labotronic machines have also been fitted with extras that make them extremely versatile.

Double condensation (Models 1420 - 2842 - 4060) In case of water shortage the Labotronic will automatically switch to air condensation.

Granita/Slush

(Models 1420 - 2842 - 4060) When required, by activating the appropriate switch, it is possible to produce excellent granita/slush.
