A Unit

Our chilling unit (A unit) is modeled after the Votator type of scrap surface heat exchanger and combines the special features of the European design to take advantage of the two worlds. It shares many small interchangeable components. Mechanical seal and scraper blades are typical interchangeable parts. The heat transfer cylinder consists of a pipe in pipe design with inner pipe for product and outer pipe for cooling refrigerant. The inner tube is designed for very high pressure process operation. The jacket is designed for flooded direct evaporative cooling of either Freon or ammonia.

 Pin Worker/ C Unit.

The Pin Worker consists of a hot water jacketed cylinder with a row of fixed static pins (optional 3 rows) and a concentric shaft carrying pins in a helical or straight pattern. The rotating shaft pins intermeshes with the static pins to provide the necessary kneading function for softening the shortening. The shaft is driven by a variable frequency geared motor for flexibility. The very high operating pressure mechanical seal is the same as SSHE for standardization.


All wetted surfaces are made of stainless steel (304 or 316L), internal surface polished to food grade application, external finish dry honed with welds grounded. All seal parts, 'O' rings, gaskets and non-drive end bush compatible with product. The unit is hot water jacketed and insulated, with optional individual temperature controlled hot water circulation tank.
