What is Continuous Mixing?
Continuous Mixing is the process of continuously metering ingredients directly into the mixing chamber and, as a result, generating a constant stream of dough at the exit of the mixer. The mixing may be done in stages to ensure all ingredients are properly incorporated Studies indicate that continuous mixing eliminates dough variations associated with batch cycles and produces a consistent product all day, every day.
Our Exact Mixing Continuous Mixers are available in many sizes, from 50 to 10,000 kg/hour, and are primarily selected by customers based on dough moisture levels or dough mixing stages.
