Automatic tempura batter mixer for poultry and seafood
Enhance the consistency and quality of your tempura coatings while maintaining precise batter ratios with this advanced mixing and transfer solution.

Proportions and Mixes Tempura Batter
The Stein TM Series from Stein is a suite of automatic tempura batter mixers engineered for food processing industries such as poultry, seafood, and ready-meal manufacturing. These mixers are uniquely designed to proportion, mix, and maintain consistent batter levels, facilitating the production of tempura-coated shrimp, battered chicken nuggets, and other similar products. Operating in a semi-continuous mode, the TM Series ensures precise mixing ratios and smooth batter transfer through an adjustable rotating and orbiting mixing cage, while the positive displacement transfer pump prevents shear action. With a mixing capacity of up to 2,000 lbs/hr, this equipment is built with durable stainless steel construction and features 60,000 BTU refrigeration coils embedded in the tank for optimal temperature control. Seamlessly integrating into existing production lines with PLC controls for the TM-4 model and hydraulic drives for the TM-3 model, these mixers provide reliable performance with minimal maintenance, bolstered by a remote sensor to sustain batter levels within applicators.
