Automated continuous mixing delivers real-time process assessment and consistency round the clock.
All set for continuous mixing and kneading: RBS
A continuous kneading and mixing process ensures all types of ingredients are mixed and kneaded in the optimum sequence to produce the desired product with consistent characteristics while saving time, resources and minimizing waste.
Real-time is the right time
A versatile piece of equipment that can be used for all processes requiring controlled temperatures is the spiral. For this technology, Ashworth developed the SmartSpiral® Monitoring System, an application that provides real-time monitoring of multiple spirals, even over different facilities.
Ideas from Mahot
The principle of the forked kneader came from the Mahot machine factory and provided mechanization of dough preparation. It has since proved itself in practice – and is still used today. The reason behind this is the technological proximity to French traditional, manual dough production.
In the (continuous) mix: Verymix
VMI’s VERYMIX kneader is recommended for the continuous production of raw frozen, parbaked and/or pre-proofed and frozen doughs, including baguettes, ciabattas, pizzas, Viennese pastry, puff pastry and flour & water mixtures.
What goes around: spirals
The shortest way to efficiency in proofing, cooling, freezing, or baking is sometimes a spiral.
Factors that make a mixing difference
Spiral mixer or wendel mixer? The decision as to which kneading system a company invests in is dependent on many influencing factors. The application engineers at Diosna allowed us to look over their shoulders during a series of tests and to document the results.
Kaak: becoming a system provider ‘Step by Step’
Kaak lines are used both for dough balls, which can be stored chilled until they are shaped in production or in the store for some days, as well as for complete lines that either press dough portions to the base using the hot or cold process or from the ‘cut out’ of a dough sheet.
Mixing: when diversity is requested
VMI has adapted and developed a “snacking” version of its vertical double tool mixer, the KNEADSTER, that fully meets product diversity requirements. With its specific tooling and its reverse rotation, all types of dough and meats/vegetables can be mixed.
Re-engineered mixing and kneading
Reading Bakery Systems, a member of the Markel Food Group, has re-engineered the MX Continuous Mixer. The model now ranks as the most versatile continuous mixer, and is suitable for a broad product spectrum and a wide diversity of doughs.
Optimized mixing process
The Ditsch GmbH pretzel bakery has invested in a new DymoMix system at its Oranienbaum site. Processing tolerance of the
