Pillow Plate
Pillow Plate: versatile and efficient heat transfer technology
Pillow Plate is a proprietary technology developed by FIC for manufacturing laser-welded heat transfer surfaces, composed of two stainless steel sheets inflated under controlled pressure. This structure enables optimal heat transfer fluid flow and perfect adhesion to contact surface.
Thanks to its versatility, Pillow Plate is used to manufacture tanks, jackets, heads, channels, hoppers, condensers and heat exchangers for numerous sectors: food, chemical, pharmaceutical, refrigeration and heat treatment.
HOW IT WORKS
Custom technology: efficiency and durability over time
The system guarantees:
- high exchange efficiency
- reduction of energy requirement
- simplicity of cleaning and sanitization
- long service life and corrosion resistance
Pillow Plate components are designed and manufactured internally by FIC, with total control over quality, dimensions and materials. Plates are pressure tested and certified according to PED and European regulations.
USE
Industrial applications and customizations
Pillow Plate is used wherever efficient and hygienic thermal process management is necessary:
- fermenters and tanks
- thermal jackets for vats and tanks
- modular banks for condensers or heat recovery units
- refrigerated channels and hoppers
Each application is custom designed to adapt to specific geometries, guaranteeing constant and reliable performance.
