Blentech supplies a wide range of innovative cooking processing systems using both batch, batch continuous and continuous technologies. From stove-top evaluation to full manufacturing volumes, Blentech's application experience and history over the past twenty-plus years will be able to help and guide you in getting your product right.
The VersaTherm Blending Cooker is an evolutionary advancement in thermal processing. The VersaTherm is a high performance blending cooker optimized for processing thick, viscous products and formulations with fragile particulates. Twin horizontal ribbon agitators keep even the most difficult formulations homogeneously blended. The unique, wrap-around jacket provides more heat transfer surface than hemispherical kettles or conventional jacketed mixers. Blentech's patented scraper system keeps these heat exchange surfaces swept clean, maximizing transfer of heat into the product. Proprietary auto-reversing agitator control technology minimizes product degradation. The result is an evenly cooked and blended product with superior quality characteristics.
The Continuous VersaTherm cooker employs has all of the patented features which have made the Blentech VersaTherm so successful - the patented spring-actuated scraper system, the wrap-around body shape for more jacket area, the twin ribbon agitator mixing and the patented auto reverse system for even mixing without breaking up fragile particulates. Up to fifty percent of production time is spent loading and unloading a batch blender. The continuous ContinuBlend costs less to install, less labor to operate, and usually product quality is improved. ContinuBlend is the first continuous system that gives true end-to-end mixing while maintaining first-in, first-out particulate control.
