Continuous Mixers
Our Exact Mixing Continuous Mixers come in all sizes, ranging from 50 to 10,000 kg/hour, and are available based primarily on dough moisture levels or dough mixing stages, for example:
- Exact MX Continuous Mixer is our most versatile mixer and can be used for a wide range of products including cookies, snacks, pizza, batters, icings, and pastes.
- Exact EX Continuous Mixer is an excellent choice for low-absorption, stiff, wheat-based doughs, such as crackers, bagels, pretzels, pizza, sweet goods and pet treats.
- Exact HDX Continuous Mixer is well-suited to ultra-high absorption doughs for buns, breads, rolls, English muffins or tortillas.
- Exact FX Continuous Mixer is a high-intensity mixer that can be used to produce potato-, corn- and rice-based products and specialty baked snacks, such as fabricated potato chips.
Dough Forming Solutions
The Reading Pretzel Low Pressure Extruder offers exceptional flexibility,enabling you to create a variety of pretzel shapes, sticks, braids, filled sticks and bread snacks on one production line. Product changeover is as simple as exchanging one compression head and die for another one with a different shape.
For rotary moulded cookies, the Thomas L. Green Rotary Moulder efficiently produces high definition, 3-D shapes by pressing dough into a die roll. The interchangeable engraved brass die roll can be supplied with segmented rings for simultaneous, multi-shape production.
The Thomas L. Green Sheeter generates a consistent dough sheet, and Gauging Stations ensure a gentle reduction in sheet thickness prior to shape forming. Scrapless geometric shapes and distinct shapes can be formed by the Rotary Cutting Station.
Ovens
The Thomas L. Green PRISM OVEN has been trusted in the biscuit, cookie and cracker industry for more than a century. The flexible single-pass baking platform offers Direct Gas Fired (DGF) Zones, Emithermic (Radiant / Convection) Zones and Convection Zones.
The Reading Pretzel SPECTRUM OVEN® offers radiation, convection and conduction heat transfer options in a single modular design, making it ideally suited for balanced and consistent baking of extruded pretzels and snacks, baked snack crisps from potato, wheat, multi-grain or corn masa flour doughs, and pet treats.
