Double shaft batch mixer for chocolate production
Optimize your chocolate and confectionery production with precise mixing and homogenization, ensuring consistent product quality across batch operations with double shaft technology.
Mixes and Homogenizes Chocolate and Confectionery Ingredients
The Double Shaft Batch Mixer HBM from Hamburg Dresdner Maschinenfabriken is tailored for rigorous demands in chocolate, cocoa, and confectionery processing. Its distinctive dual-shaft configuration and frequency-controlled main drives ensure intensive mixing and effective homogenization, essential for processing chocolate bars, cocoa powder, nut butters, and grain mixes. Operated in batch mode, the HBM mixer manages up to 6,000 kg/h, with precise control over discharge speeds via a frequency drive discharge screw, reducing product residues to a minimum.
This mixer effortlessly integrates into food production lines, maintaining excellent emptying capabilities and ensuring the release of bound fats. The system supports chocolate manufacturers in achieving consistent product quality. Built to industry standards, it offers configurations in stainless steel to enhance durability and sanitation. Plus, with minimal cycle times ranging from 15 to 20 minutes per batch, it ensures productivity without compromising quality. Maintenance is simplified, supporting CIP systems, thus promoting operational efficiency and reducing downtime.
