Batch mixers for raw material preparation in extrusion processes

In food production industries, particularly those involving snack or cereal extrusion, consistent and uniform mixing of raw materials is critical. Without proper mixing, the end product’s quality may suffer, leading to variations in texture, taste, and appearance.

Achieve uniform mixing of raw materials

The Batch Mixers by Schaaf Technologie are designed to ensure uniform mixing of raw materials for extrusion processes. Available in two sizes, 450 liters and 900 liters, these stainless steel mixers cater to different extruder models, providing a hygienic production environment. The 450-liter mixer, suitable for the 6400 extruder model, processes two 200 kg batches per hour. The 900-liter mixer, ideal for the 9250 and 1200 extruder models, handles two 350 kg batches per hour. An optimized design and optional automatic water addition system enhance mixing consistency. These mixers align seamlessly with the needs of single-product and varied-product production systems, promoting flexibility and efficiency.

Benefits

  • Uniform mixing ensures consistent product quality
  • Hygienic production with stainless steel construction
