COIMIX® MACHINES (SSHE - SCRAPED SURFACE HEAT EXCHANGER)

The COIMIX® machine is suitable to crystallize vegetable and animal fats and different types of emulsions. The various margarines and shortenings carry a different behavior during the crystallization phase as a function of their nature and composition. The rotors of the crystallizers are equipped with floating blades made of special stainless steel.

The COIMIX® is complete with refrigeration compressors, one for each of crystallization tube and is very versatile due to a high cooling efficiency and reduced energy consumption. Furthermore, each crystallizer tube has an automatic defrosting system to optimize waiting times and formulation changes.

It is able to produce Table Margarine, Puff Pastry Margarine, Cake Margarine, Shortening, Ghee or Vanaspati, Lard and Tallow with standard productions ranging from 800 to 9.000 kg/h and pressures up to 100 bar.

FEATURES

•	Support structure made of stainless steel AISI 304 complete with protective casing.
•	Crystallizer tubes scraped surface in high strength steel.
•	AISI 316 stainless steel rotors complete with special steel tilting blades.
•	Motor with flexible coupling transmission to the rotor.
•	Chiller (installed inside the machine) complete with accessories.
•	Electric control panel and control screen with PLC and PC.

Note:
All Coimix® machines are assembled in a single frame.
They are wired and tested in the E.B.M. premises prior delivery with their electric control panels.

PLASTICIZERS (PIN ROTORS)

The plasticizer is a machine that allows the best distribution of the crystals in the fat matrix making the final product more homogeneous and plastic. Varying the rotor speed it’s possible to achieve the desired consistency and texture. It’s equipped with a cooling circuit and / or independent heating and temperature-controlled depending from production process.

It can treat Table Margarine, Puff Pastry Margarine, Cake Margarine, Shortening, Ghee or Vanaspati, Lard / Tallow with standard productions ranging from 800 to 9.000 kg/h with pressures up to 100 bar.

FEATURES

•	Stainless steel AISI 304 and / or 316 for the parts in contact with the product
•	Pinned tubes in stainless steel AISI 316.
•	Pin rotors in AISI 316 stainless steel.
•	Motor with flexible coupling transmission to the variable speed rotor.
•	Homogenizer, where provided, in stainless steel AISI 316.
•	Electric control panel and control with PLC and PC.

Note: All Plasticizers are assembled in a single frame and are wired and tested in the E.B.M. premises prior delivery.

RESTING TUBE

The resting tube is an ancillary machine indicated for the intimate crystallization required by specific product such as margarine for puff pastry.
It is usually matched to a particular packaging system to obtain blocks and /or sheets of margarine
It features temperature control circuit for the best performance of the product and process, and has a modular structure.

FEATURES

•	Stainless steel AISI 304 and /or AISI 316 for the parts in contact with the product
•	Product tube (modular) in stainless steel AISI 316 complete with special dies for the development of the crystal structure.
•	Heating / cooling circuit to keep the product at correct process temperature.

PRODUCT FILLING, WEIGHING AND PACKAGING SYSTE

Once the product (Margarine, Shortening, Ghee, Lard, etc.) from Coimix® has been crystallized it needs to be packed it for distribution to final customers.
E.B.M. produces various semiautomatic and automatic systems to package the product in the can and / or carton with inner plastic liner.
The weights can vary from 5 to 25 kg per piece.

FEATURES

•	Support structure made of stainless steel AISI 304 complete with protective casing.
