TWIN ARM KNEADER
Model AB80
  The product line of Industrias Torrents S.A. have a wide range of the equipment -machinery- for bread manufacturing and confectionnery, including many different models of bread slicers, etc.


TWIN ARM KNEADERS

The twin arm kneading system is based on the imitation of manual labour kneading: two arms finishing in a shovel and a yoke imitate the human hands. It is a high quality dough kneading; this kneaders achieve very good results: dough with good oxygenation, and good development due to good formation and elasticity of gluten.


Technical features

- Strong bench made out of wrought iron.

- Bowl, shovel and yoke in stainless steel.

- Strongly reinforced mechanical parts; F-114 wheels; steel drag pinion in tempered Cr-Mo, cemented and rebored. The parts are assembled on bearings and constanly coated with oil.

- Trasmission by pulleys and trapezoidal belts.


SPIRAL KNEADERS

Our range of models of spiral kneaders covers different flour capacities.

Kneading is produced by a twisting part, the spiral tool, with the help of a central dough cutting bar.

Kneading time with a spiral kneader is generally shorter than with a twin arm kneader. The dough is more refined, which is at the same time less oxigenated and has less air inside than with an arms kneader. Furthermore, a spiral kneading will result in a crumb more yellow or cream colour. Torrents kneaders allow to develop these qualities of the spiral kneaders so that they get products of the best quality.

Technical features

- Bench made out of grey cast iron.

- Bowl, spiral tool and dough cutter in stainless steel.

- Models AME-50, AME-75 and AME-125 have two separate motors, one for the bowl and one for the spiral tool, and have reverse motion of the bowl. The machines are assembled using the most advanced techniques and are driven by trapezoid and toothed belts.


 



 

 

AUTOMATIC LINE WITH SPIRAL KNEADER, ELEVATOR AND DOUGH DIVIDING-WEIGHING MACHINE

 
  KNEADER ELEVATOR
WITH TIPPING DEVICE


The kneader elevator with tipping device allows to lift the kneader, by means of a hydraulic device, up to a straight position.In this position it allows to empty the dough out, which falls into the hopper of a dividing machine, onto a working table or any other surface.

To do the operations easily and with the maximum efficiency the machine has a cable push-button control.

The kneader elevator is manufactured especially for a concrete kneader, adapted to the dimensions of the kneader. The height of the elevator is also adapted to the height of the surface where the dough is emptied out.

The kneader elevator is very useful to automatise the bread making process. It is extremely more time efficient than manual operations and makes easier the working conditions for the user.

All the operations of lifting, emptying the dough out and returning the kneader on to the floor take approximately 2 minutes.


AUTOMATIC WEIGHING
AND DIVIDING MACHINES


The automatic weighing and dividing machine is a volumetric machine, ideal for an hydratation of the dough from 50% to 65% (percentage of water in relation to flour).

A speed variator allows to obtain a productivity from 20 to 40 pieces per minute. This productivity is multiplied by two if the machine has 2 pistons; then they are very useful to make small pieces with high production.

A pieces counter allows to choose the number of pieces to get.

The machine comes with a standard hopper of 40 Kg. Bigger hoppers are also available as an option.or 60 Kg. dough capacity. Bigger hoppers of 80 Kg. and 150 Kg are also available.Different options in pieces weight range are available, depending on the piston diameter.
