CARAMEL PROCESSING EQUIPMENT - Teknol

1 CARAMEL PROCESSING EQUIPMENT2 CARAMEL PROCESSING equipmentBy specialising in design and construction Hosokawa Ter Braak areable to supply the most comprehensiverange of PROCESSING EQUIPMENT for the production of all types of CARAMEL . Simultaneously, the technicaldepartment has built up an internationalreputation for the practical supportprovided in the Ter Braak can supplyequipment for all types of caramelapplications, whether to meet therequirements of the small specialistconfectioner, or a major product manufactured by an internationalorganisation.

2 A feature of constructionis that most individual units can besubsequently integrated into a complete line as capacity requirementsgrow. Usually production starts with aweighing, mixing and pre-heating system type Caramix, which can be used to deliver the correct formulations of prepared ingredients toany style of cooker, whether batch,continuous batch, or truly continuous. The continuous CARAMEL productionlines can be controlled by either a conventional control system or a PLCsystem.

3 Varying degrees of automationare available as standard, or can be designed to meet customer requests. Supervisory, control and dataacquisition (SCADA) can optimise thesystem and provide the requiredmanagement Caramix is a weighing and mixingplant in electronic execution withmicro processor. The jacketed weighing vessel is mounted in a frameon a 3 point load cell assembly. The lower holding vessel is also jacketed to keep the premix at the correct temperature.

4 The Caramix isavailable in a sophisticated versionwith PLC control system and operating screen or a dedicated batchweighing controller (economy execution).CaramixWeighing, Mixing and FeedingSpecifications Caramix200500 Working capacity consumptionkVA1111 Air consumptionnl/h500500 Valve for water 1 2 x 1 Valve for glucose 2 2 x 2 Valve for milk 1 1 Valve for fat 1 1 Capacity of weighing vessell200500 Capacity of lower data are approximate and subject to specific process parameters and quality/type ofraw TBT is a multi-task steam heatedbatch cooker designed for theproduction of soft confectioneryarticles such as CARAMEL and toffee.

5 Jellies (based on pectin, gelatine, agar-agar or Gum Arabic), fruit fillings andjams. Because of its scraped surface,even products with high protein levelscan be made. The machine is designedto accommodate batches of 100 kgfinal product. Vacuum systems can be added in orderto cool down the cooked mass beforeadding heat sensitive ingredients, suchas fondant (fudge production) andgelatine solution (chewy CARAMEL , jellyand gummy production). The cookeris equipped with a heavy-duty, 2-speed anchor type stirrer with Teflonscrapers.

6 Upon request breaker armscan be fitted to achieve a higherturbulence and to assist breaking uplumps or to melt down fondant blocksor pieces. The cooker can also beconstructed for air-assisted discharge.

9 Mixing and cooking plantThe Hotmix is a highly flexible and accurate cooker for various typesof confectionery, especially the manufacture of CARAMEL or toffee. It isa combined machine based on theCoolmix weighing system and cookertype TBT 100. The Hotmix is available in standard single executionwith one cooker and in twin with twocookers. Further multiple executionsor combinations are available uponrequest. The photograph shows an example of a Twin Hotmix, which is a weighing and high capacity cooking system for the simultaneouspreparation of different recipes.

10 Thecooker is executed with a loss-in-weight auger feeder fordosing of dry ingredients after thecooking systems can be added in orderto cool down the cooked mass beforeadding heat sensitive ingredients (fondant/ fudge/gelatine solution). TheHotmix can be supplied with standarddedicated batch weighing controllerand electronic thermostats, or with a small PLC with HMI (HumanMachine Interface).
