Industrial Grinder Equipment

Grinders use a spinning blade or rotating abrasive elements to reduce the size of various materials. The specifications, RPM and grit of the engineered grinder, will result in various particle sizes. As a result, what you want to make will determine the type of grinder you need. Grinding is used for improving the texture and flow properties of various products and to enhance the flavor of food products such as coffee, spices, sugar, nuts, sesame, poppy seeds, lentils, wheat, and rice. Choosing the right rotational speed, grinding elements, and processing power allow the grinding and shredding of a wide range of materials into coarse or fine powders. Popular types of heavy duty grinders in food processing include angle grinders, bench grinders and meat grinders.

Our food chain starts in the soil, growing crops and livestock. But between the fields and the stores, there is a line of industrial food processing equipment. Processes may be as minimalistic as cleaning fruit and as complex as homogenizing milk alternatives made from pressed legumes. In each case, processing technology is an important link in the food production chain.

A fresh salad with a walnut oil dressing or a peanut butter sandwich? A bag of roasted cashews or a pack of almond cookies? The common thread among these tasty treats is nut processing equipment. Not all nut ingredients are indeed nuts, botanically speaking. But the machinery that transforms shelled fruits, legumes, and drupes into fried snacks or a paste is similar. As for the food products, there is a nut recipe for every mood and occasion.

Granola is one of the most beloved breakfast menus for its versatility and convenience - you can put it in milk, use it as a topping for yogurt, or even make healthy cookies out of it. Setting up a granola production equipment line is quite similar to muesli. The only difference would be that the sheet of hard grains, nuts, and dried fruits goes through the baking process.

Granola

You make granola bars from caramelized nuts, grains, and cereals, baking and shaping them into crunchy snacks. Granola bar production involves mixing, forming, baking, and cutting into bars. The quality of granola bars is affected by baking. How the sugar caramelizes and blends with the other ingredients determines the final taste and texture of your granola bar.

Cocoa butter is the fat product of cocoa liquor. It is an integral part of the chocolate-making process. To make cocoa butter, roast and process cocoa beans with the help of a cocoa butter production machine. After that, it undergoes continuous crushing – forming a rich liquid, known as cocoa liquor. You can finally press the liquid to extract cocoa butter.

Industrial drying machines are designed to remove moisture from your product. But the drying process must cater to variations in the state of matter and molecular structure of the input material. Industrial dryer technology exploits the modes of heat transfer (convection, conduction, radiation, evaporative cooling) to control the moisture content.

Drying

<span style="font-weight: 400">The heating process is a step of raising the temperature of food, pharma, cosmetics, and many other types of products. You may employ different heating solutions for this process, depending on the type of product you intend to manufacture. Selecting the appropriate heater machine for your product is quite important since various products require different ranges of temperatures and different ways of heat transfer using exchangers. Industrial heating equipment varies in two ways - the type of material it can process and the reaction you want to achieve.</span>

Roasting involves extended exposure to heat in an oven or over a fire. Depending on your end product, roasting equipment makes sure that the raw materials you put in undergo even roast intensity before they are transferred for further processing. Some roasting technologies may also be used for other cooking requirements, including toasting and drying. When thinking about roasting, the idea of roasted coffee comes to mind. However, there are a wide array of food products that go through a roasting process. For example, nuts such as almonds and cashews go through a roasting machine

<h3>Precleaning technology is vital nut processing equipment</h3>
Harvested tree nuts bring plenty of contaminants into the plant. Before processing them, ensure that the nuts are free from surface pathogens and foreign objects.

Separate the nuts from hollow shells, stems, and other materials using screens of different mesh dimensions. A series of sorters will then calibrate the valuable nuts into equal sizes. Subject the nuts to high-pressure air blowers to rid them of debris and small particle residues.

Drying the nuts makes them easier to crack. Heating the cleaned lots in a cabinet dryer hardens the shells and facilitates hulling.

But reduced water content makes the meat more brittle and could decrease yield at the end of the processing line. An effective technique is moistening the nuts to soften them and applying gentle heating to harden the shells. The processed nuts can be dried thoroughly after the hulling step is performed.

Add moisture to protect nuts from breakage during processing

The hulling operation is a delicate step during processing. Nut cracking machinery risks damaging the kernels, leading to wastage or poor quality.

Nut varieties, from peanuts to walnuts, have different shell structures that require specific equipment configurations. The cracking process is performed in two steps. Pre-awning technology first applies gentle pressure to weaken the shell before a second line completes the cracking. Empty hulls are blown into a collection bin and separated from the nuts.

Accurate hulling is a tough nut to crack

<h3>Blanche the nuts to prepare them for peeling</h3>
Nuts can be peeled, mainly for further processing, like <a href="https://making.com/chocolate-spread" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hazelnuts for chocolate spreads</a> or almonds for marzipan.

Blanche the kernels to relax the skins. Blanching technology subjects the processed nuts to scalding water for a brief period before submerging them in cold water. Finally, pass the nuts through the revolving rolls of a peeler to skin them.

Enzymes in the nuts <a href="https://www.pilipushers.com/single-post/2018/02/15/what-you-should-know-about-how-nuts-are-processed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">protect them from insect</a> attacks, but they slow down digestion when consumed by humans. Moreover, these proteins accelerate the chemical breakdown of the kernels. Inactivate the enzymes to extend the shelf life of nuts and promote good digestion.

Soaking the lot in water breaks down the phytic acid content and neutralizes the enzymes. This process also helps release nutrients producing higher-quality nuts, especially if you’re packaging raw nuts.

Neutralize enzymes to prolong  the shelf life of nuts

Coat the nuts to give them a surprising final taste. Place the roasted nuts in a coating machine where a rotating drum agitates the individual kernels as the sprayer sprinkles the coating ingredient on them.

Everybody knows the <a href="https://making.com/peanuts" target="_blank" rel="noopener">salted peanut</a> and the sugar-coated pecans. But alternative coating ingredients create new complex flavors, such as coconut-coated cashews or caramel-coated walnuts.

Try alternative coatings to mix up the flavors

<h3>Use frying technology to produce oil roasted nuts</h3>
Nut snacks owe their popularity to their texture. Roasting boosts the crunchiness and crispiness of nuts.

There are two ways of <a href="https://making.com/roasted-nuts" target="_blank" rel="noopener">nut roasting</a>: dry roast and oil roast. The first method involves placing the processed nuts in a cooking cabinet or roaster without additives. Oil roasting is usually performed in a fryer, immersing nuts in oils at high temperatures as they absorb the fats.

Chia seeds have ancient origins and are native to Central America, where they have been consumed for centuries. The chia plant, scientifically known as Salvia hispanica, is a member of the mint family and is native to regions of Mexico and Guatemala. After harvesting the seeds must be thoroughly cleaned and then dried. The sieving process comes next and is important to remove any further impurities. Full of dietary fiber chia seeds make a great addition to smoothies and breakfast puddings.
