The Product Development Mixer is designed for preparing, mixing, and refining chocolate recipes in a laboratory environment. Developed for new product development studies, raw material trials, sample production, and recipe validation, this machine offers the ability to work with small-volume batches.
The sugar, cocoa liquor, cocoa butter, milk powder, and other raw materials specified in the recipe are loaded into the machine and the mixing process is initiated. The mixing and ball refining systems work together to ensure the raw materials are combined homogeneously. This allows products prepared at laboratory scale to be evaluated for desired characteristics before proceeding to production.
The heating element system helps maintain the product at the appropriate temperature during operation. While the mixing speed operates at a constant rate, the grinding system enables the chocolate to reach a fineness of 25-30 microns. Prepared samples can be checked for taste, fluidity, color, texture, and other quality criteria.
All parts in contact with the product are manufactured from AISI 304 stainless steel. Its hygienic design allows cleaning operations between different recipes to be performed quickly. Thanks to its compact dimensions, it can be used in laboratories, R&D centers, and pilot production areas without taking up excessive space.
The AYD-PDM-10 is a practical piece of equipment for performing laboratory-scale mixing and refining operations, suitable for chocolate manufacturers, universities, R&D centers, and businesses conducting new product development studies.
