Jam kettle for preserve and marmalade production

Ensure consistent flavor and texture in your jams and marmalades with precise mixing and gentle thermal processing, optimizing your batch quality and maintaining the natural aroma throughout production.

Mixes, Heats, and Fills Jams and Sauces

The KMK series from Kreuzmayr Maschinenbau GmbH offers industrial jam kettles designed for seamless integration in food processing operations. These kettles excel at gentle heating and uniform mixing, thanks to an electric mixer and a precisely controlled water jacket heating system. Perfect for crafting preserves, marmalades, and sauces, they come in three capacities: KMK 70, KMK 150, and KMK 250, accommodating varying batch sizes. With automation features like a butterfly valve for easy discharge and options for electrical connection, these kettles enhance efficiency and simplicity in processing. The stainless steel construction ensures durability and compliance with food industry standards, while the adjustable feet facilitate maintenance and integration into existing production lines.

The KKF 600 and KKF 600 NEO piston fillers complement the kettles by providing reliable filling and sealing for up to 600 containers per hour. They support a range of viscosities, making them ideal for jams, chutneys, and other liquid products. The pneumatically driven metering pump and adjustable locking force guarantee precision and secure sealing, enhancing product integrity. Both fillers are constructed with stainless steel frames and are CE certified, ensuring operational reliability and compliance.
