Improving Product Consistency at Industrial Bakeries with Continuous Mixing Systems

Industrial bakeries face various problems. A common one is achieving product consistency, which is crucial for meeting customers' expectations and maintaining brand reputation. Continuous Mixing systems from Reading Bakery Systems (RBS) can help improve product consistency in industrial bakeries.

Reading Bakery System's primary mixer brand – Exact Mixing – is the global leader in continuous mixing technology and has made us a leader in the baked snack, biscuit, bread and bun, cookie, pretzel, sweet goods, pet treat, pizza, tortilla, cracker, and pet treat industries in North America and around the globe. Our innovative industrial bakery equipment can be customized to meet your needs.

Continuous Mixing Equipment

Continuous mixers can improve product consistency in several ways. First, the mixing process is controlled and consistent, ensuring that all ingredients are mixed thoroughly and evenly. This eliminates the risk of clumping or uneven mixing, which can affect the texture and flavor of the final product. Additionally, continuous mixers can be customized to suit the specific requirements of different products, such as the desired texture or viscosity, ensuring that the end product meets the desired specifications.         

Our Continuous Mixers come in many sizes, from 50 to 10,000 kg/hour, and are well-suited to a wide range of applications:

Crackers, Pretzels, Bagels, Pizza, Sweet Goods, Pet Treats

The Exact Exact EX Continuous Mixer was designed specifically for products that have a variety of dough moisture levels.  The mixing action is thorough and quickly develops a mass, evenly blending leavening agents into the dough for a uniform piece size after the oven.

Cookies & Other Products That Need 2-Stage Mixing

For products that require ingredients to be blended before adding most of the flour, the Exact LDX Continuous Mixer is an excellent choice. In the first mixing stage, all minor ingredients can be combined with some of the flour, and the fat can be cut in. The remaining flour is added in the final stage to create the dough. 

 Bread, Buns, Rolls, English Muffins, Tortillas

The Exact HDX Continuous Mixer is ideal for high-development mixing of ultra-high-absorption doughs. In the first stage, ingredients are mixed into a uniform mass with a twin-screw mixer. A single-screw mixer kneads the dough to the proper development level in a separate section.  

Potato Snacks, Corn Chips, Rice Chips, Veggie Chips

The Exact FX Continuous Mixer evenly distributes small amounts of moisture into large quantities of powder by lifting the powder into atomized liquids. It prevents wet and dry areas in the final dough. This mixer is well-suited to hydroscopic powders, such as the potato flakes used for making fabricated potato chips, and other low moisture mixtures. 

Cookies, Snacks, Nut Bars, Batters, Icings, Pastes

The Exact MX Continuous Mixer, our most versatile mixer, is specifically designed for products with dough moisture levels that range from very low to high and inclusions that need to be protected from damage. It's the perfect solution for high-energy products and features special mixing actions that ensure inclusion integrity.
