Slurry Systems

Slurry systems function by pumping a pre-mix of oil and dry seasoning into the flavour drum through nozzles and a lance. The application process can be purely volumetric or controlled through weight signals from the KMG Flow Weigher. To prepare the slurry mixture, a pre-mix tank blends the oil and dry seasoning before transferring it to the holding tank. This ensures a continuous supply of slurry for consistent and uninterrupted flavour application. The slurry is then applied from the holding tank onto the extruded snacks, enveloping them in a flavourful coating. Simultaneously, another batch of slurry is prepared, ensuring a smooth and efficient manufacturing process. By utilising slurry systems, snack manufacturers can overcome the challenge of achieving deep flavour absorption in extruded snacks. The controlled application of the slurry mixture onto the products ensures even distribution of flavour, resulting in a superior snacking experience for consumers. Slurry systems offer a reliable and efficient solution for heavily seasoning extruded snacks. Their versatility, ease of integration, and precise flavour application make them an invaluable asset for snack manufacturers seeking to create products with exceptional taste. With features such as tank options, heated tanks, and signal-controlled set points, slurry systems empower professionals to enhance the flavour absorption of their snack products, ultimately delighting consumers with every bite.
