In many plants it quietly is. Fat arrives in blocks, blocks melt slowly, and everything downstream waits. The conventional cylindrical melting tank makes it worse: blocks rest on heating coils from one side only, so half of each block’s surface does nothing.
The Alpy Fat Melting Tank changes the geometry. The tank is rectangular, which lets you load more blocks per charge. The melting serpentines have a triangular profile, so each one contacts the fat blocks from two sides at once. Twice the heated contact surface per serpentine means faster melting per charge, and a melting stage that keeps pace with your mixers instead of holding them up. Heat distribution stays uniform, protecting fat quality against local overheating, and the whole tank is food-grade stainless steel.

Sizing it correctly
The right tank size depends on how much fat your recipes consume per shift and how your deliveries arrive. As a rule, size the melting tank against the batch capacity of your Preparation Mixer — feeding a PM-1500 from a 500-litre melter means waiting.
