AZO GMBH & CO KG

In order to prepare the fruit base, vegetables, jam, marmalade, jelly and sauces, horizontal or vertical mixing systems are used. Mixers are vital for attaining the highest product quality. The main aim is to ensure consistent mixing and temperature distribution by applying the lowest possible shear force on the pieces of the product. Since it is possible to thereby realise short process times along with the qualitatively high-value process apparatuses, KASAG has the ideal mixing technology for you. For the horizontal mixers, KASAG also has a special bearing and mechanical seal that has been tried and tested over many years. On an ongoing process to develop our mixing system and the bearing and mechanical seals further to attain optimal product quality and to enable smooth operation.

We have been manufacturing stainless steel machines and feeders constructions for food industry. The stainless steel structures are welded of different sizes and weight. Stainless steel feeders and mixers are among our currently manufactured products. We manufacture high quality steel constructions for food industry, which are customized to our customers’ individual needs and in accordance with the standards ISO-3834-2 and others international standards.

The continuous ploughshare mixer uses the mixing and fluid process introduced to mixing technology by Lödige. The ploughshare shovels in special arrangement on a mixing shaft in a horizontal, cylindrical drum rotate. Their peripheral speed and geometric form are coordinated in such a way that the mix is moved out of the product bed against the centrifugal force and in axial direction at the same time. The mixing elements having a defined shape and a special arrangement on the shaft, they ensure not only a reliable product conveyance but also a sufficient back-mixing of the product. All the product is constantly involved in the process, ensures a maximum mixing intensity at even the highest throughputs and shortest residence times until the product is discharged out of the mixer via an outlet. The continuous process can be run at filling levels between 20 % and 50 % without influencing the mixing quality. Choppers can be additionally installed in the mixing drum.

The application range includes everything from processing of viscous components to paste-like products with poor flow. The range of food applications is exceptionally broad and there are also various applications for the pharmaceutical industry. The conical shape permits thorough residue-free discharge. The wet mixer system is a vertical mixing system for batch processes. The geometry of the conical or cylindrical mixing vessel, the arrangement and shape of the tools and their peripheral speed are adapted to each other in all sizes, resulting in effective mixing of all components. Depending on the process engineering tasks, the individual mixing tools are combined to form one tool both for material transport and for dispersion and disagglomeration processes. The installation height in the vessel is adjustable within a wide range. An adjustable deflector can be used to affect the product movement in a systematic fashion.
