Kaymich are proud to announce the launch of their new system, designed for batch melting/ heating a whole range of products, including foodstuffs, with the melting profile being fully customisable to meet process requirements.

Designed to complement and enhance our existing product range, this new device is primarily targeted at preparation away from the process line.

Two standard modes of operation are available, rapid and slow.

When operating in rapid mode the product is brought to temperature as quickly as possible, with the profile controlled to avoid any detrimental effects to the product. This heating profile is fully customisable to suit the product, once at temperature the unit switches to maintain the product at the desired heat, again configurable to suit your requirements.

In slow mode the temperature gradient is much more gradual, this allows for thorough heat distribution particularly useful for material which may be sensitive to rapid heating, or where product has been allowed to solidify within the unit. Once again all the temperatures associated with this mode can be tailored to suit the materials involved.

The intuitive touch screen controller ensures that the 15 core heaters along with the outer tank heater zones distribute heat evenly. The system with a programmable dispensing rate boasts a maximum of 25 litres per minute.

The Bulk Melt System has recently been installed with a leading cigarette manufacturer, who had a requirement to melt 50kg of menthol crystals in around 30 minutes. They use it in rapid mode to quickly melt menthol crystal for use in the primary phase of the cigarette manufacturing process. Enditem
