Continuous Mixing Technology

Continuous Mixing is the process of continuously metering ingredients directly into the mixing chamber to generate a continuous stream of mixed product at the exit of the mixer. Mixing may be done in stages to ensure all ingredients are incorporated properly.

Exact Continuous Mixers come in a variety of sizes, ranging from 100 to 10,000 kg/hour. Different models are available based primarily on dough moisture levels and number of mixing stages, such as:

  • The Exact EX Continuous Mixer, which uniformly mixes products with a variety of dough moisture levels and is ideal for gentle kneading of wheat-based products, such as pretzels, pizza, crackers, sweet goods, and pet treats.
  • The Exact HDX or High Development Continuous Mixer, which is ideal for ultra-high absorption doughs, such as buns, breads, rolls and English muffins.
  • The Exact LDX Continuous Mixer, which is an excellent choice when your product line involves cookies and other products that require a two-stage mixing process.
  • The Exact MX Continuous Mixer, which provides high energy mixing for high moisture / high fat content doughs, such as icings, cremes, batters, fillings and low viscosity mixtures.

Oven Technology

The Thomas L. Green PRISM OVEN is a flexible single-pass baking platform that offers Direct Gas Fired (DGF) zones, Emithermic (Radiant / Convection) zones and Convection zones for cookies, crackers and biscuits to provide balanced and consistent quality, color, taste and texture.

The Reading Pretzel SPECTRUM OVEN® offers radiation, convection and conduction heat transfer options in a single modular design, making it the ideal oven for baked potato chips, baked crisps, extruded pretzels, bread snacks and pet treats. The double or single-pass oven is available in a number of configurations with different heat transfer modules, enabling you to adjust the profile for more product variation.
