Continuous Mixing
Batch mixing often leads to dough variations from batch to batch that affect the consistency of breads and rolls. Even if the dough leaves the batch mixer in perfect condition, changes can occur to the dough while it waits to be processed. Continuous mixing solves these problems.
The HDX (or High Development) Continuous Mixer is designed specifically for mixing ultra-high absorption, highly developed doughs for products such as breads, buns, rolls, English muffins and similar products.
The thorough mixing action quickly develops strong bonds in gluten strands. Peak development and consistent delivery of dough at the optimum temperature is achieved through a precise combination of speeds in the mixing and developing sections of the system.
As a result of newer technologies, continuous mixing can now accurately deliver raw materials to the mixer at rates high enough to meet the demand of the mixing process, making it possible to produce as much as 20,000 pounds of dough per hour.
A complete Continuous Mixing System includes the mixer, blender, materials handling and ingredients metering, as well as the control system that monitors and distributes product between them.
