Working Principle

Suitable for margarine prodution, margarine plant, margarine machine, shortening processing line, scraped surface heat exchanger, votator and etc. 

The margarine is pumped into the lower end of the scraped surface heat exchanger cylinder. As the product flows through the cylinder, it is continuously agitated and removed from the cylinder wall by the scraping blades. The scraping action results in a surface free from fouling deposits and a uniform, high heat transfer rate.
The media flows in counter current direction in the annular space between the heat transfer cylinder and the insulated jacket. A spiral coil provides a higher heat transfer efficiency for steam and liquid media.
Rotor driving is achieved by an electric motor installed on the upper shaft end. Rotor speed and product flow can be varied to suit the application.
SPX series scraped surface heat exchangers or called votator machine can be connected in series for in line heating and cooling.

Technical spec.

Cylinder

The inner cylinder diameter are 152 mm and 180mm

Material

The heating surface is normally made of stainless steel, (SUS 316L), honed to a very high finish on the inner surface. For special applications different types   of chrome coatings are available for the heating surface. The scraping blades are available in stainless steel and different types of plastic materials including a metal detectable type. The blade material and configuration is selected based on the application. Gaskets and O-rings are made of Viton, nitrile or Teflon. Suitable material will be selected for each application. Single seals, flushed (aseptic) seals are available, with material selection depending on the application
