How the equipment works

Cutting blades and a wall scraper mix thick products such as sauces, dressings, cheese and soups. A jacket around the tank heats or cools the mixture.

Vacuum draws air out of the batch and reduces bubbles. Readings of blade speed, mixing time, and batch temperature help explain changes in texture and appearance during the run.

The operating temperature range, power, and other utility requirements depend on the setup.
