Meet the future of ice cream production

Optimize your lines, reduce waste, and boost efficiency with our Gram Equipment @ SMART solutions.

We envision a future where ice cream production is not only smarter but also more sustainable and customer-centric.

By embedding intelligence into every step of the process, we empower producers to deliver high-quality products with minimal waste and maximum efficiency. Our goal is to make ice cream production intuitive, adaptive, and aligned with the evolving demands of the global market.

Gram Equipment @ SMART Solutions help you run more consistently, waste less, and make improvements faster - across the entire line.

The measurable benefits of our digital solutions

More output with fewer interruptions: keep flow stable from freezing to packaging, reduce micro-stops and recover faster from disturbances

Lower waste, especially at start-up and changeover: less mix and ingredient loss during ramp-up, earlier detection and correction prevents off-spec product

Consistent quality across SKUs, shifts, and sites: stable product characteristics and repeatable settings, less operator dependency, more predictable results

What makes Gram Equipment @ SMART Solutions different from traditional ice cream production lines?

Gram Equipment @ SMART Solutions integrate real-time monitoring, AI-driven vision systems, and automated adjustments across the entire line, from freezing to packaging. This ensures consistent product quality, reduces operator dependency, and minimizes waste through intelligent, data-based decisions.

How do Gram Equipment @ SMART Solutions improve energy and resource efficiency?

By continuously monitoring power, cooling, and equipment performance, Gram Equipment @ SMART Line optimizes energy use and reduces unnecessary consumption. Features like cold temperature zones and sealed pistons in components such as the Gram Equipment @ SMART Inclusion Disc minimize cleaning frequency and contamination risk, saving water, chemicals, and downtime.

What is the role of Gram Equipment @ SMART Cutter?

Gram Equipment @ SMART Cutter uses laser and AI-driven 3D vision systems to detect off-center sticks and misaligned products, then automatically corrects positioning without manual intervention. This split-second adjustment ensures perfect shape, optimal downstream performance, and zero tolerance for errors.

What role does AI and machine learning play in Gram Equipment @ SMART Solutions

AI and ML analyze over 1,600 data points from the line to identify key parameters affecting throughput and quality. Digital Performance Management then applies optimal settings across all equipment, making production operator-independent and consistently high-performing.

How do Gram Equipment @ SMART Buffers and Gram Equipment @ SMART Modes reduce waste and downtime?

Gram Equipment @ SMART Buffers provide extra capacity and redundancy at critical points like end-of-line cartonizing, absorbing micro stops that cause most production interruptions. Gram Equipment @ SMART Modes use predefined stop-handling logic to recover quickly, drop products early to save ingredients, and keep the line running efficiently.

Can Gram Equipment @ SMART Solutions handle complex products like multi-flavor or large inclusions?

Yes. The Gram Equipment @ SMART Inclusion Disc supports up to 30% inclusion rates, ripple patterns, and multi-flavor mixing with a low-pressure filling system for gentle handling. Servo-guided stick insertion ensures alignment even with inclusions, maintaining consistent quality and creative flexibility.

Watch our built-in 30s buffer in our GCS Cartonizing System

This crucial, fully automatic enhancement prevents product loss and, in doing so, significantly boosts overall line efficiency. When a short interruption hits, the GCS buffer steps in to safeguard against product waste and maintain continuous flow. Once the line clears, the GCS seamlessly releases the buffered product back into the flow to resume full operation.
