Industrial Drums: Blanchers and Coating Pans for Food Processing

Industrial drums are essential equipment in the food and pharmaceutical industries, designed to process, mix, blanch, and coat a wide variety of products. Manufactured in stainless steel, they ensure durability, hygiene, and efficiency in production.

The rotary drum blancher is used in production lines to blanch vegetables, fruits, legumes, seafood, and pasta before canning or freezing. This process inactivates enzymes, enhances color and texture, and extends the product’s shelf life.

Features of the Blanching Drum

  • Robust design with a horizontal cylinder and thermal insulation chamber

  • Continuous operation with high throughput

  • Steam or hot water blanching options for uniform cooking

  • Automated control system for adjusting temperature and time

Benefits of Industrial Blanching

  • Effective disinfection: Eliminates bacteria and fungi, enhancing food safety

  • Better preservation: Reduces enzyme activity that affects color, flavor, and texture

  • Facilitates further processing: Improves freezing and reduces product volume

  • Even cooking: Maintains bright color and prevents sticking of sticky products like rice or pasta

Blanching Processes

  • Disinfection

  • Softening

  • Enzyme inactivation

  • Partial removal of air and water

Coating Pan: Coating Tablets and Spherical Products
The coating pan is a machine designed to coat tablets, candies, and other lenticular or spherical products. Its geoid-shaped structure and continuous rotation ensure an even distribution of coating materials.

Features of the Coating Pan

  • Rotating vessel ensuring uniform coating

  • Optimized centrifugal force and friction for better coating adhesion

  • Ideal for pharmaceutical and confectionery products such as candies and lozenges
