Special Egg blends normally carry a high production cost. This is due to the extra time needed to prepare the recipe, standardize the product, blend the ingredients without getting foam or flocs.
Each factory must optimize the time and flexibility required to prepare special preparation, all in the respect of the strictest economical and microbiological parameters.
In the second half of 2015 Avitec installed the latest result of a serious effort to improve the efficiency of special egg products.
The line LC2000 CHEF SPECIAL is unique in the market and, as most of Avitec projects, it was tailor made based on the needs of the client.
A new-concept special blending system allows mixing and dissolving 200 Kgs of salt into 2 tons of dense pure egg yolk in less than 20 minutes.
The process is so efficient that it is even possible to start the mixing before the tank has been filled with the needed quantity. This means that with only 2 tanks it is possible to run a continuous production without stops for the required mixing time. It is like dosing in line but with much more accurate control and predictable results on the recipe.
Perfect clear albumen (obtained with electronic scanning on the breaker side) can be pasteurized with a proper mix of ingredients to maximize its whipping quality and functionality.
The pasteurizer with a capacity of 2000 lt/h is equipped with the latest design in terms of plate heat exchangers, allowing more than 7 hours of non-stop operation, the product is homogenized with the best machine nowadays available in the market, a GEA NIRO unit, also produced in Italy.
Holding time is flexible and can be adjusted according to the needs and required specification for each different special product, in order also to allow field tests aimed to maximize functionality and microbiological safety.
The line is used to supply special products to one of the biggest and most important Food Corporations in the world.
