Increasing Production Efficiency & Product Quality in Ready-to-Use Frosting Manufacturing
Ready-to-use frostings have gained in popularity in recent years. Prepared frostings typically consist of sugar, gums and flavors such as cocoa and vanilla which are dispersed into a solution of corn syrup and water. Eductor-style powder dispersers often do not effectively disperse the gums and flavors without creating agglomerates causing increased batch times and often, re-work of the product....

Squeeze More Profits from Your Fruit Juice Production
In the production of fruit and vegetable juices which have a percentage of pomace content (i.e. solid remains or pulp of fruit after pressing for juice), it's common to use a pressure/valve homogenizer to decrease the particle size of the dispersed solids and provide improved stability against separation. In many food products increased viscosity can be used to counteract the settling rate of...

'ZC' In-Line Disperser for Gums
The Quadro Ytron-® ZC Powder Disperser is uniquely engineered to incorporate and disperse extremely difficult-to-wet gums into a liquid stream in a single-pass. The advanced design of the ZC Disperser's rotor/stator provides for intense shearing of the gums prior to hydration, to produce homogeneous dispersions that are completely free of lumps and fish-eyes . A near-perfect vacuum permits...
