The machine has a heated through, containing rotating heated paddle shafts. The specially shaped paddles do not have a transport function but are designed for maximum heat transfer. This results in an excellent control of the temperature of the product and enables a uniform product quality. At the outlet side, the product moves out of the machine via an adjustable overflow.
