Multi-color and flavor confectionery production system
Maximize production flexibility with a single extruder that seamlessly integrates color and flavor into licorice and fruit gum, enabling the creation of diverse, multicolored confectioneries without the need for multiple systems.
Enables Multicolored and Flavored Extrusion
Extrugroup’s Diemix® is an innovative solution that transforms a single extruder into a versatile production unit capable of producing licorice, fruit gum, and other multicolored confectioneries. The system employs unique stream-dividing technology that allocates equal flows from the extruder, each precisely dosed and dynamically mixed with colors and flavors, achieving a homogeneous output. Ideal for confectionery and pet food manufacturers, the Diemix® supports the production of licorice ropes, fruit gum bears, and co-extruded pet treats. Featuring a compact design, it integrates seamlessly into existing production lines with minimal modifications and can be fitted to any Extrufood extruder type, allowing a single cooking extruder to produce six-color products. The Diemix® accommodates continuous high-speed operations, with options for installing a dosing skid for accurate customization. Maintenance is user-friendly, thanks to its accessible design, and it offers adaptability across various mass types, exemplifying a tailored approach to diverse manufacturing challenges.
