A new type of mixer without discharge doors has been developed, which means that both filling and discharge of the mixer take place through the same valve.
In order to discharge, the machine has to rotate 180° from the filling position and thereafter automatically connect to the product receiving system. The machine can also automatically connect itself to a washing and a drying station with a fully automatic cleaning program. A trend within the industry is that higher and higher demands are put forward to avoid cross contamination, and this actualises the automatic cleaning of the machines.
In 2003 two new rotating mixers were installed in Denmark.These machines combine the well-known quick and accurate fluidised zone mixing with extreme accuracy in adding minor amounts of liquid as well as more difficult liquids. With this type of machine, it is very easy to switch between various recipes and to clean the machines after use. You just push the start button for the washing program. During a 30minutes lunch break, the machine is cleaned and dried and ready to perform again.
The extremely high accuracy in the Forberg mixers enables the customer to achieve an optimum formulation of the various products, which are to be mixed. High mixing accuracy combined with a gentle mixing action, makes it unnecessary to over formulate the recipes with expensive ingredients such as aromas, in order to secure an even quality of the end products.
