IKA in the food industry
Nature offers a rich supply of all types of food, and people are very creative when it comes to flavorfully refining eatable natural products. Furthermore, there is an abundance of market suppliers. Therefore it comes as no surprise that consumers have very high standards. The quantity doesn't count; quality does. For this reason, food manufacturers are always seeking innovative mixing technologies. At IKA they will find what they are looking for, regardless of the individual technical demands.
听 听With IKA mixing technologies, products retain exclusive organoleptic characteristics and a particularly appetizing look. IKA possesses an extensive know-how when it comes to the food industry's multifaceted mixing processes:
鈥听 听听emulsifying and homogenizing
鈥听 听听wet grinding
鈥听 听听dispersing and powder input
鈥听 听听drying and mixing of free-flowing solids
听 听For example, IKA offers two powerful machines for the production of high-quality emulsions such as mayonnaise and ketchup: the Master Plant and the Standard Production Plant, with a patented dispersing module. Both work under pressure or vacuum. During the everyday production process, they ensure maximum flexibility: they can mix, disperse, suck in, and moisten solid substances, temper the mixture, and eventually discharge it.
听 听IKA colloid mills and inline dispersing machines clear the way for particularly smooth spreads, horseradish, and mustard matter. The CMX machine developed by IKA enables the instant preparation of starch and sugar solutions in any desired amount.
听 听Additionally, IKA is revolutionizing bread baking. IKA machines make it possible for dough masses to be produced as part of a continuous process. A particular version of the inline machine ULTRA-TURRAX UTL not only achieves a previously unmatched productivity, but also gives the dough its own special baking characteristics.听
听 听All IKA machines and equipment meant for the food industry are made exclusively from high-quality materials. They meet the highest hygienic requirements and are scalable. 听3A-certified machine versions are also available.
