The NEAEN SteamMix Cooker with steam agitator and integrated homogenizer

Intensification of cooking

The design of the NEAEN SteamMix cooker provides unsurpassed fast cooking of foods, with a minimum expenditure of energy, by using a direct injection of steam into the product combined with intensive mixing via a steam agitator. Direct steam injection provides not only rapid heating, but prevents heat loss and heat inertia, in comparison with  models which employ heating through the jacket.

Mixing of the product in the SteamMix cooker is carried out in two planes. Mechanical mixing, grinding and homogenization of the product is achieved by using the built-in type homogenizer, of the rotor-stator type. The heating and mixing, carried out in a different plane, is achieved via direct steam injection.

There is no mechanical mixing device in the NEAEN SteamMix cooker.

The integrated high rotor-stator type homogenizer enables rapid mixing, homogenization and comminuting of the particles of the product to 3 microns in just a few minutes. The working components of the homogenizer can be changed to produce different types of product.

The design of the SteamMix cooker consists of a thermally insulated cooking vessel, built-in homogenizer of the rotor-stator type, a direct steam injection system, and steam mixing and heating systems.
