- Due to its excellent mixing properties its often used for mixing further ingredients, such as color, flavor or acids into a certain mass. (Licorice, sugar paste, chewing gum or others)

Mixing extruders:
This twin screw, co-rotating, intermeshing extruder is used for several purposes:

- Economic due to low labor costs and energy consumption

- Self cleaning

- Quick changeover times to other recipes and products

- Minimum waste during start up and stop procedure

- Low and constant moisture content of product

- Constant throughput

- Constant and controllable cooking temperature

Cooking extruders:
This modern twin screw, counter rotating, intermeshing extruder is mainly used for the production of Licorice. Due to its revolutionary screw design weve managed to obtain a much lower (- 30%) energy consumption compared to other suppliers.

In one single machine the mass is cooked, mixed, dehumidified and pressed though the die-system. This results in the following advantages:
