The versatile TOR storage and cooling tower from GEA allows products on trays to be stored and cooled naturally after they have been baked, and before injection or depanning and transfer for packaging . Replacing traditional long cooling conveyors, the space-saving TOR tower unit is commonly integrated into a complete production plant, to cool products coming out of the GEA Imaforni oven. The tower unit can also be used as storage for tray recollection, with automated loading and unloading.

The TOR cooling tower comprises an ascending and a descending tier of tray-holding slots into which the baking trays are transferred from the oven to allow their products to cool. After cooling for the specified length of time the trays can then be transported directly to the injection system for product filling at ambient temperature, or moved on to the depanning unit, before the products are delivered to the packaging section. The vertical TOR tower system saves a considerable amount of space in the production area when compared with a horizontal cooling conveyor.
The versatile TOR tower has a dual function, and can also be used as an automated tray storage, loading, unloading unit, which removes the need to manually load and unload trays when the plant is turned off and on.
GEA can customize the tray capacity of the TOR tower to match the capacity of your plant.
