Goldpeg In-Line Disintegrator
The Goldpeg In-line Disintegrator has been designed to reduce the particle lixe of processed cheese blend prior to cooking.
The principle of the equipment is based on a shear pump with a significantly larger capacity that those commercially available. Design considerations included throughput, viscosity, pressure, and curd particle size, with the aim of optimizing your production benefits.
Benefits Dependant on your current formula and process conditions, the In-Line Disintegrator has the potential to deliver the following benefits:
Lower formulation cost through:
- Increased utilization of functional components (young cheese intact casein) due to complete and consistent melting and protein hydration/emulsification.
- Reduced high grade young cheese level and subsequently increased medium trims/offcuts usage
- Increased final product moisture due to tighter product structure and utilization of total intact casein level.
Increased product quality through:
- Consistent input particle size resulting in uniform hydration and more consistent final product texture.
- Reduced Capital Cost due to not having expend funds on another grinder to achieve similar result.
Performance Capability
- Ability to process up to 5000 kg/hr (11000 lbs/hr)
- Particle Size <3mm
- Multiple combinations, using the inner & outer cages and hammer, are possible to achieve desired shear requirement.
Technical Specification
- 4" right angle Inlet and Outlet
- Rotating Hammer (removable)
- Static inner cage and inner cage spacer (for use when outer cage not used)
- Rotating outer cage (removable)
- 50Hp / 37 Kw motor with Danfoss VSD
- Double flush mechanical seals
- Hygienic stainless steel base (not pictured)
- Dimensions: 1200mm L x 475mm W x 745 mm H approx
Positioning - The In-Line Disintegrator is placed after the Product Feed Pump and before the inlet to the RotaThermŽ Continuous Cooker
Note: The level of benefit achieved with the In-line Disintegrator will be dependant on the current level of undissolved curd in the cooked product and the existing product formulation. The existing final product may be altered by the use of the In-Line Disintegrator and will need to be fine tuned in response.
