Scraped surface heat exchangers for gelatine processing

Effortlessly manage the cooling, gelling, and extrusion of gelatine with these high-performance scraped surface heat exchangers—delivering precise temperature control and reduced processing times for enhanced product quality.

Cools, Gels, and Extrudes Gelatine Extract

The Fixed Chemetator unit from TMCI Padovan is engineered to optimize gelatine production through precise cooling and gelling. This system employs scraped surface heat exchangers and inclined extrusion tubes, allowing for seamless transformation of concentrated gelatine extract into noodles ready for extrusion and drying. Perfectly suited for the gelatine, margarine, and confectionery industries, it enables the production of gelatine noodles and concentrated extract, while supporting high-speed continuous operations in liquid and slurry forms. The unit’s integration with perforated plates ensures optimal drying on a belt, reducing breakage and enhancing throughput efficiency. Constructed from high-grade materials for durability, this unit integrates effortlessly into existing production lines, boasting PLC controls for streamlined automation and reduced energy consumption. Customization options and engineering support ensure it meets specific operational needs, while maintaining easy maintenance with its low-friction components and accessible design.
