Mayonnaise mixing Equipment

Industrial mixing equipment is used to combine two or more solid, liquid or gaseous segregated ingredients into a homogenous single product. The choice of mixing technology depends largely on the physical state of the ingredients and the desired final product. But the sensitivity of the ingredients, the process temperature, and pressure requirements are also critical factors. All these parameters result in a wide range of industrial mixers.

Mixing

Mayonnaise is created by blending oil with eggs, and then flavoring with vinegar, mustard, herbs, and spices. The eggs are a natural emulsifier that creates a uniform mixture. Ingredients are pumped into mayonnaise manufacturing equipment. First, a dynamic mixer maintains the desired level of emulsification of the mixture, which then moves on to packaging and bottling once reaching a satisfactory consistency.

Mayonnaise 

Equipment operating under the rotor/stator principal is often employed when more traditional methods of stirring cannot achieve desired results. High performance continuous dispersing equipment is needed to achieve desirable results for almost any mixing process in circumstances where other machines fail.
<h2>Rotor/stator mixing in a robust and simple package that is easy to clean</h2>
The IKA ULTRA-TURRAX UTL 2000 is inline high-performance single-stage dispersing machine used for the production of emulsions and suspensions. The UTL 2000 uses the rotor/stator principle and is best suited for continuous applications that cannot be accomplished using conventional stirring methods.

During the full continuous process the components to be mixed are fed into the machine at an appropriate rate through various inlet connections. These components are then thoroughly mixed, dispersed or homogenized within the machine and discharged from the machine through the outlet. Thus, all particles or droplets are treated producing a narrow particle or droplet size distribution with minimal concentration/quality variations. Additionally, the UTL 2000 creates a pumping action which can be used for transfer purposes at low to moderate viscosities with a maximum of about 20 m (ca. 2 bar).

The machines are designed for easy and reliable scale-up and sizes are available with throughput from 50 to 125.000 liters per hour.

Dispersing machine for emulsions and suspensions

For products of medium viscosity and relatively consistent particle size such as honey, cremes, and some plastics, a simple, low cost mixing machine is useful to ensure even dispersion.  The most efficient production plants take advantage of such equipment in continuous production processes to minimize required floor space and serve double-duty as mixing and pumping/transfer equipment.
<h2>A basic effective mixing machine with transport pump capabilities and low cost</h2>
The lower-priced ULTRA-TURRAX UTL 1000 machines from IKA are particularly multifunctional and are used for the mixing, dispersing (emulsifying/suspending) and homogenizing of solid and liquid substances up to viscosities of several thousand mPa·s, such as honey, plastic masses and crèmes. The mixing components are fed into the machine at the inlet connection. The materials are mixed, homogenized and then discharged from the machine via the outlet connection. The economic dispersing machine does not have automatic suction, but does have a conveyor height of up to 20 meters.  Units are available with flow rates from 4.800 to 125.000 liters per hour.

&nbsp;

Economic dispersing machine for emulsions and suspensions

For continuous high performance mixing of solid and liquid raw materials rotor/stator equipment is often used because of the high shear forces it applies to the mixture which reduces particle size and aids dispersion.  Use of equipment that uses three stages of rotor/stator action to achieve extremely small and evenly distributed particles for production of very fine emulsions and suspensions will guarantee the success of your process.
<h2>Three stages of rotor/stator mixing power for extremely fine emulsions and suspensions</h2>
The IKA DISPAX-REACTOR® DR 2000 is a three-stage high shear inline dispersing machine used for the production of very fine emulsions and suspensions. Shear forces that occur in the working chamber produce a drastic increase of mass transfer and accelerate the dissolving rates of mono and macromolecular substances. Three rotor-stator combinations (generators) in a series ensure small- droplet or particle size and a very narrow distribution spectrum. This process promotes a long stability of mixtures in a single pass, especially when working with emulsions.

In order to configure the DISPAX-REACTOR® DR to meet a variety of application needs, IKA offers a wide selection of generators. The standard rotor-stator (generator) combination consists of a coarse, medium and fine rotor-stator. When installed in a series, this configuration ensures satisfactory particle size reduction while providing optimum dispersing results in a single pass. The units are designed for easy and reliable scalability and are available in sizes with flow rates from 80 to 125.000 liters per hour.

Dispersing machine for very fine emulsions and suspensions

Producing the finest micro-emulsions and suspensions requires a mixing machine that generates extremely high shear.  Multi-staged rotor/stator dispersing machines work well for this purpose because of the high shear forces applied to the mixture at each rotor/stator stage.  A rotor /stator dispersing machine that also incorporates extremely fast rotation and resultant tip speeds for even greater shearing action will lead to the creation of super-fine emulsions and ensure the success of your process.
<h2>Top-of-the-line rotor/stator dispersion with utlra high shear for nano-scale particle emulsions and suspensions</h2>
The DISPAX-REACTOR® DRS from IKA is an inline ultra high shear dispersing machine used to achieve the finest micro-emulsions and suspensions. Extremely high shear rates (up to 190.000 1/s) combined with a fine generator geometry enable crushing of droplets and solids particles down to the nanoscale. The resulting product has long-term stability which reduces the need for emulsifying agents and thickeners. Because of the extremely high energy density, other dispersing aids can be reduced or possibly eliminated.

The DRS is usually equipped with a two-stage rotor-stator system (generators). The high tip speed of 40 m/s (10.000 fpm) often negates the need for a third stage. The ultra-fine dispersing machine, designed with the same high quality features as the ULTRA-TURRAX® UTL and the DISPAX-REACTOR® DR, is especially well suited for challenging pharmaceutical applications.  The units are designed for easy and reliable scalability and sizes are available with flow rates from 70 to 40.000 liters per hour.

Ultra-fine dispersing machine for emulsions and suspensions

Developing and validating new processes requires reliable and highly versatile equipment.  Innovators need mixing equipment that can be adapted to a wide variety of processes and has the function and controllability they need to fine-tune their results.
<h2>Multi-functional, small scale dispersion for the laboratory</h2>
The Magic LAB from IKA is a uniquely versatile small-scale dispersion machine.  It is designed for mixing, dispersing, wet milling, and incorporation of powders into liquids.  The laboratory dispersing machine is commonly used for developing new products and improving existing processes in the chemical, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and food industries.  It is an ideal machine for continuous, circulating, and batch processing using different interchangeable modules.  It is designed to match functional parameters of larger scale production dispersion equipment making scale-up predictable and successful.  The units can be configured for single or multi-stage operation among others and important process parameters such as speed, torque, and temperature can be recalled.

Small-scale laboratory dispersing machine

When processes call for homogenized emulsions with extremely fine particle sizes the traditional toothed ring dispensers are not always sufficient.  For extremely high levels of disintegration required to produce true micro-emulsions, extreme pressure cycling is more successfully used.
<h2>Homogenization with pressure shock to achieve extremely small particle sizes</h2>
The HPH High Pressure Homogenizer from IKA uses one or more piston pumps to apply pressure up to 2000 bar to the liquid medium to be homogenized.  The fluid is then fed through a homogenizing valve which very quickly reduces the pressure to the atmosphere.  This abrupt change in pressure in the moving fluid causes cavitation, a high degree of turbulent flow, and internal shearing forces in the fluid all of which serve to break up and distribute larger particles forming a very fine emulsion.  The pressure applied on the uphill side of the homogenizing valve is infinitely adjustable as is the flow rate through the valve, so the process can be easily adapted to achieve a wide range of outcomes and to accommodate fluids with different flow characteristics.  All parts that contact the product flow are stainless steel and autoclavable and the entire unit is designed for robustness and long service life.

From food to pharma, homogenization is an essential step in the production process that provides uniformity to the product by improving its physical properties. If not homogenized, the fluid product might degenerate over time, leading to the formation of sediments and phase separation. This will lead to the loss of desirable product properties like uniformity, viscosity, consistency and reduced shelf life. 
<h2>Reducing product particle size using cavitation provides fluid stability</h2>
High Pressure Industrial Homogenizer from HOMMAK facilitates permanent homogenization of heterogeneous fluid products like milk, fruit juices, creams, ointments and more. The homogenization effect is achieved by reducing the product particle size through cavitation, shear force, impact velocity and turbulence effect under pressure, thereby preventing phase separation in the product.

The homogenizer consists of two main elements – the compression block and the homogenization unit. As the name suggests, the compression block compresses the ingredients under high pressure. The homogenization unit micronizes the decomposed particles to the specified size per the product.

The equipment's design and manufacturing considerations like capacity, pressure, material selection and valve design are tailored to its specific industrial application.

Food

Our food chain starts in the soil, growing crops and livestock. But between the fields and the stores, there is a line of industrial food processing equipment. Processes may be as minimalistic as cleaning fruit and as complex as homogenizing milk alternatives made from pressed legumes. In each case, processing technology is an important link in the food production chain.

Sauces bring personality to a dish. From a spicy, dense Zhoug to a tangy, runny Suero, sauces add an extra dimension of flavor, texture, and mouthfeel. But developing recipes into industrial products with long shelf lives and consistent tastes is a complex process. Specialized sauce making equipment prepares and combines the ingredients into delicious, high-quality foods. The result is a sauce ready to elevate meals.

Sauce

Built upon its world-leading laboratory equipment, IKA Process is a game changing manufacturer of dispersing machines, homogenizers, stirrers, jet flow agitators, and kneading machines.

Moliere famously said that slow-growing trees bear the best fruit. Clearly, the 17th-century playwright never ran a mayonnaise production facility.

In food manufacturing, once the recipe is developed and reproducible, every minute lost is an extra cost.

“<em>Time is money</em>,” reminds us Rolf Schmidt, “<em>But time efficiency means the highest quantity at the highest quality.</em>”


<h2>Superior dispersal starts with the droplets</h2>
As a food processing expert at <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/ika-works">IKA Process Equipment</a>, Rolf isn’t simply throwing around platitudes. The processing equipment firm existing for more than 110 years, has developed a unique dispersing machine for uniformly dispersing the oil phase in the aqueous phase at high speed.

“<em>We have put our very long experience in dispersing techniques into our dispersing machine DBI</em>,” says Rolf as he explains the technology of the Standard Production Plant (SPP) series. Conventional machines add the oil to the water and then often need to further homogenize the mixture, whereas the IKA machine allows to shorten this process.

The IKA technique comminutes oil materials directly when distributing them into the circulating water. The heart of the system is the rotor-stator. As the oil phase travels through the high-shear mechanism, it breaks down into uniform fine droplets.

Mayonnaise is around 80% oil, whereas making mayonnaise on an industrial scale starts with a 100% water phase and introduces oil droplets at high intensity until they reach the accurate recipe ratio. Directly dispersing the oil in the mixture shortens the processing time and increases the dispersal efficiency.
<h2>Process 500 liters of mayo in 5 minutes</h2>
Rolf points out that it’s not only the way of downsizing drops that make the technique faster: “<em>Our solution actively pumps the oil into the dispersing machine, injecting it with a higher speed than in common systems.</em>”

The unique design of the dispersing machine facilitates the efficient dispersal of the droplets. It allows to integrate the oil faster and more efficiently than in common systems. In Rolf’s customer experience, this often decreases the processing time by more than half. In fact, the SPP 500 system can produce 500L of mayonnaise in just 5 minutes.

With new varieties launched every year, the mayo market has been evolving rapidly since the original recipes of 18th-century France. That was long after Moliere’s time, but had he tried the condiment, he would have discarded his own advice and advocated instead for faster production.

Basically, to make milk powder, you need to remove the water content from the liquid milk and turn it into powder. How to do it? After pasteurizing and homogenizing the milk, milk’s water content is removed through filtration, evaporation, and drying. You have then to cool and sieve it before filling the containers. Here's how you get milk powder.

Sugar is the fuel that drives photosynthesis in plants. The leafy organisms constantly convert water and carbon dioxide into glucose. But it takes manufacturers specialized sugar processing technology to extract the sweet crystals from them. Today, most sugar products are derived either from sugarcane or sugar beet.

Mpac Group is an industry leader in packaging automation, cartoning, and case-packing technologies.

Its complexity begins with the term itself, which has no clear and precise definition in the industry. As Jan Verweijen and Frank Jeurissen from the Mpac Group explain, the big question is always: is it a sachet or a stick pack?

“What is what” is defined by the way it is sealed, not by its width or length. A stick pack is a product with three seals, one of which is in the middle, lengthwise. Instead, a sachet is a four-sided sealed product with no seal in the middle.

First introduced in Japan in the 70s to pack sugar, these single-use sticks are now used to pack everything you can think of. But what impact does your product have on the cartoning process?


<h2>The first step is to find the right balance.</h2>
Stick packs are first filled vertically; this means that all the product is on the bottom.

Before entering the stick packs into the cartons, you need to evenly divide the product over the left and the right side of the stick packs. This step is called equalization and it is done by horizontally shaking the product to redistribute the contents inside the sticks.

“<em>If the weight is not evenly distributed, all the stick packs will slide off toward one corner of the box leading to an unstable formation that can damage the sticks</em>.” Frank points out.

For mere mortals, powder is powder, but for the experts, coffee powder, for instance, has a different structure than cocoa powder.

“<em>Liquids do not need equalization as the fluids divide automatically.” </em>Jan explains.

In addition, the sticks must have a minimum size, usually around 80 or 90 millimeters, to be cartoned horizontally and the shorter the sticks, the more difficult to keep them stable.
<h2>On edge vs. random orientation - Which side do you stand on?</h2>
Premium single-use products, such as coffee or pharmaceuticals, are often packed with the brand name and description always facing the consumer.

“<em>When this is the case, we use a paddle conveyor that brings each stick pack on a single edge so that when pulled out of the box, the branded face is the first thing the consumer sees,</em>” says Jan.

Frank adds: “<em>In 90 percent of cases, manufacturers choose speed over where the stick pack is facing. With random orientation, you can easily speed up to 900 sticks per minute</em>”.

“<em>Our bomb bay system counts each stick individually and puts them together in the quantity the producer requires; then it drops the sticks into the bucket conveyor</em>.” continues Jan.

To prevent damage, the bomb bay system consists of multiple drop levels, and the sticks need to be always dropped at a limited height - no higher than 250 mm.

As every stick has two ends, cartoning single-serve packs may seem easy, but as Jan and Frank explained, the journey from equalization to orientation and bomb bay dropping is not exactly a piece of cake.

With over one-third of the population consuming it daily in different forms, coffee is one of the most popular processed beverages worldwide. Not only serving as drinks, but coffee is also often regarded as a culture. Coffee manufacturing is a knowledge-intensive industry. Coffee beans from different regions will reveal different tastes, while the level of caffeine could also be different. When it comes to coffee bean processing, the range of roasts varies from light golden brown all the way to dark. The method of tasting coffee differs between countries, habits, and tools.
