Cream preparation plant for wafer production

Achieve consistent cream texture and optimal weight for perfect wafer production with streamlined mixing and feeding solutions designed for high-capacity demands.

Mixes and Feeds Creams for Wafer Production

The Cream Preparation Plant CMA from Hebenstreit GmbH is engineered for precision in creating homogeneously mixed creams, vital for efficient wafer and snack production. It features a highly effective mixing turbine and rotating knife shaft to produce a light, fluffy cream within just 6 to 8 minutes, depending on the raw material and recipe. Ideal for food, snack, confectionery, and bakery industries, it supports a wide array of end-products, including flat, hollow, and coated wafers, curls, and filled snacks.

Capable of processing up to 800 kg/h, the plant operates both continuously and in batch modes, making it versatile for varying production demands. Integration is seamless, utilizing a cream holding tank with an agitator scraper and a conveying pump to ensure constant feeding to one or more spreader heads, enhancing operational efficiency. Furthermore, it optimizes power consumption through advanced motor controls.

Constructed for longevity and hygiene, it includes components like double-walled tanks and automated cleaning features to ensure compliance with industry standards while minimizing downtime for maintenance. Hebenstreit offers customization options to meet specific production requirements, supported by global engineering teams ready to assist with design and implementation.
