VPMC Mehrzweckgefäß für Prozesse, computergesteuert.

The Computer Controlled Multipurpose Processing Vessel, "VPMC", has all the necessary to:

• Mix.
• Emulsify.
• Heat.
• Pasteurise.
• Incubate.
• Cool.
• Chill.
• Cure.

As well as the preparation of food products for further processing, it allows to produce finished products in batch sizes from 5 up to 30 lmaximum.

This unit consists of a cylindrical-shaped jacketed vessel, into which different tests are carried out. Outside of the vessel, a water bath, whose temperature is controlled, is disposed. To heat the vessel content, an electric heating element is mounted. When a chilling of the products in the vessel is required there is a chilling unit, which supplies water in a continuous way to the vessel jacket.

The mixing stage is carried out by a mixer, which has a high speed motor and with an emulsifier/mixer head adjustable in height. Four different type of heads, suitable for different elaboration processes, are supplied.

This Computer Controlled Unit is supplied with the EDIBON Computer Control System (SCADA), and includes: The unit itself + a Control Interface Box + a Data Acquisition Board + Computer Control, Data Acquisition and Data Management Software Packages, for controlling the process and all parameters involved in the process.
