Double-jacketed industrial cooker

steamelectricbatch

Overview
The Paste Kettle Machine is a cGMP-compliant, jacketed processing vessel engineered for uniform heating and controlled agitation to produce pastes, starch dispersions, creams, gels, syrups and sauces for pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, cosmetic and food manufacturing. Available in laboratory, pilot and production scales with steam or electric heating and hygienic, CIP-capable design.

Applications

• Preparation of starch pastes and semi-solid pharmaceutical formulations (ointments, medicated creams, gels)
• Food processing: sauces, syrups and high-viscosity food products
• Nutraceutical and cosmetic paste manufacturing

Key Features

• Jacketed vessel for uniform heat distribution (steam or electric) to prevent local overheating
• Anchor or scraper agitators designed for lump-free mixing of high-viscosity materials
• cGMP hygienic construction with SS316 / SS316L product-contact surfaces and smooth internal finish
• Digital PID temperature control for precise thermal regulation
• CIP-compatible ports and geometry for efficient clean-in-place operations
• Discharge options: manual tilting kettle with handwheel or bottom discharge valve for controlled product removal
• Industrial-grade motor and gearbox for reliable torque and speed control
• Safety features include pressure relief valve, interlocks and temperature alarms

Models / Typical Uses

• Laboratory-Scale Paste Kettle – compact unit for R&D, formulation trials and pilot batches
• Production-Scale Paste Kettle – industrial unit for batch production (standard capacities 50 L and 100 L; larger custom sizes available)
