High shear mixer system for hydrocolloids
In laboratory settings, producing various types of jellies requires precise control over ingredient mixing and temperature. A common challenge involves achieving homogeneous hydrocolloid mixtures without manual intervention, often necessary in ensuring consistent product quality while scaling down from industrial-sized production processes.
Utilizes high shear mixing and vacuum technology
The PRINCESS® JELLYMASTER by CHOCOTECH is an advanced lab equipment system designed to streamline the production of jellies. The system features a mix tank with a high shear mixer specifically for hydrocolloids, ensuring uniform mixing and consistency. A slurry metering pump feeds the integrated Sucrotwist® pressure dissolver, and the complete vacuum chamber along with the vacuum system allows for the production of all types of jellies. Additionally, the system includes a ‘Direct Steam Injection’ (DSI) jet cooker, ideal for pressure dissolving high amylose starch. The entire system is PLC-controlled, providing precise and automated operation, enhancing accuracy and replicating production-sized unit capabilities within a lab-scale environment.
