With more than 120 years of expertise and an unmatched range of equipment, customers rely on our technologically advanced mixing, forming and cutting equipment to improve efficiency, quality, volume and profitability.
Continuous Mixing
The Exact FX Continuous Mixer was designed specifically for the stackable fried chip process. It evenly distributes moisture throughout the potato dough by means of a specialized liquid injection system and a revolutionary mixer shaft design.
Continuous mixing minimizes the time between the mixer and 2-Roll Sheeter, eliminates batch cycle variations, and creates consistent and appealing product textures. With this recipe-driven system, final product quality is assured and is fully repeatable.
Dough Handling
The dough transport conveyor ensures that the dough makes it from the mixer to the 2-Roll Sheeter hopper on a first-in, first-out basis. As an option, a metal detector can be provided to the dough feed system to protect the dough sheeting rolls. Metal detectors monitor the final product before packaging for consumer protection.
Sheeting and Cutting
The Thomas L. Green 2-Roll Sheeter creates a consistent dough sheet that is discharged directly onto the Rotary Cutter infeed conveyor. Its rolls are provided with unions for chilled water supply to maintain roll surface temperatures during production.
The die roll on the Thomas L. Green Rotary Cutter separates the dough sheet into distinct shapes. The Rotary Cutter can be designed with two die rolls to allow a more efficient changeover between product types or sizes.
