The baking process requires ingredients to be mixed together in a specific order and consistency. To achieve this, commercial bakeries often use high-shear mixers that are essential for ensuring the quality and consistency of their products. Reading Bakery Systems (RBS) proudly offers the world’s most technologically advanced equipment and systems.
RBS’ primary mixer brand – Exact Mixing – specializes in Continuous Mixing technology and has made us a worldwide leader in the snack food industry. The innovative technology provides customers with consistent dispersion of ingredients, simpler dough feed equipment, and tighter control over the entire mixing process.
About High Shear Mixers
A high-shear mixer is a type of mixer that uses a high-speed rotating blade to mix ingredients. This type of mixer is different from a traditional mixer that uses low-speed rotating blades to mix ingredients.
The high-speed rotation of the blade in a high-shear mixer enables it to break ingredients down quickly and efficiently and create a homogeneous mixture. This results in a product with a consistent texture and flavor, which is crucial for bakeries that must produce large quantities of baked goods daily.
Commercial high-shear mixers come in different sizes, so customers can choose the one that best suits their needs. The size of the mixer is important, as larger bakeries may need a larger mixer to accommodate their production requirements, while smaller bakeries may need a smaller mixer. Some mixers are designed for specific tasks, such as kneading dough or whipping cream, while others are more versatile and can be used for various mixing tasks.
High-speed mixing allows the ingredients to be mixed more thoroughly, resulting in better-quality baked goods. A commercial high-shear mixer can handle a variety of ingredients, including liquids, solids, and suspensions. This means your bakery can mix ingredients such as flour and water to create a consistent dough or mix sugar and eggs to make a homogeneous batter. The mixer can also handle challenging ingredients, such as those with a high sugar content, which can be difficult to mix with a traditional mixer.
Our high-shear Exact Mixing FX Continuous Mixer is designed for evenly distributing small amounts of moisture into large quantities of powder, such as potato flakes used to make fabricated potato chips and other low-moisture mixtures. This is accomplished by lifting the powder into atomized liquids. Customers enjoy dough production rates of 100 to 1,250 kg/hour.
In addition to the benefits described above, commercial high-shear mixers are easy to clean and maintain. They are usually made from corrosion-resistant materials and can withstand the harsh cleaning agents used in bakeries. Your mixer should stay in good condition and continue producing high-quality baked goods for years to come.
