Pin rotor machine
High-Tech developed production solution.
Function and flexibility
The FH SCANDINOX pin mixer unit is an excellent production solution to ensure intensive mechanical treatment of the product in order to achieve a proper crystallisation and consistency for a wide range of margarine and shortening products.
By using the FH SCANDINOX pin mixer unit you will achieve an extra degree of plasticity in puff pastry margarines and the ideal viscosity when producing table margarines and shortenings.
The FH SCANDINOX pin mixer unit offers flexibility to the production process in different ways. It is a standalone unit with one cylinder and can easily be integrated in the process design set-up. Adjustments can be made to change the level of intensity and duration of kneading. This allows you to change the type of oil, depending on availability and demand on the market. You have the flexibility to work with a wide variety of margarine and shortening products under high or lower pressure and at variable speeds. Depending on the product application the pin mixer units can be placed in different configurations in the crystallisation process. With this flexibility you can trust on a high quality performing product.
The FH SCANDINOX pin mixer unit is designed and prepared for CIP cleaning.
Sanitary design
The FH SCANDINOX pin mixer unit is designed to meet the highest standards of hygiene.
The pin mixer unit is of modular design with one cylinder, driven by a gear motor, and installed on a base frame. The pin mixer unit is jacketed for the heating by means of a separate water attemperating (to be ordered separately).
All product parts subject to contact with food are made of AISI 316L stainless steel and all product seals are of sanitary design.
Easy maintenance
The design of the FH SCANDINOX pin mixer unit facilitates easy replacement of rotor and wearing parts during service and maintenance. Sliding parts are made of materials which ensure very long durability.
Optimise floor space
We know how important it is to optimise floor space, so we have designed the pin mixer to be mounted vertically, which also makes it very easy to clean.
