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.
Continuous dough production is designed with volume and efficiency in mind. Requirements stemming from the product characteristics, the manufacturing needs, the facility and equipment line-up will influence how continuous mixing and kneading should be set up.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Staff in the American supply chain centers of Domino’s Pizza produce dough for franchise outlets, among others. This also guarantees the quality of the pizzas.
Numerous exhibitors will present their innovations in Munich. The editors submit a couple of novelties to give trade fair visitors an insight.
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.
