Food mixing machines for prepared food production

Food mixing in prepared food production encompasses a wide range of applications: marinating and seasoning meat and poultry pieces before cooking or packing; blending mixed vegetable or pasta components; mixing cooked rice with seasonings; combining multiple dry or wet ingredients for meal components; and mixing starchy or dairy-based food products. The main mixing machine types for prepared food applications include: tumbler mixers (the product is loaded into a rotating drum that tumbles the contents — gentle mixing suitable for fragile products, marinades, and meat pieces); paddle mixers (paddles on a rotating shaft fold and mix the product in a trough — suitable for heavier or more viscous products); vacuum tumblers (tumbling under partial vacuum — accelerates marinade penetration into meat pieces by expanding and contracting the muscle fibres; significantly reduces marinating time); and continuous in-line mixers (product components are metered and blended continuously — used in continuous prepared food lines). For mixing in cooking (sauce blending during cooking), agitated cooking kettles and continuous cooking systems serve the mixing function.
