APPLICATIONS
The Comitrol Processor Model 1700 accommodates all three types
of reduction heads which enables a broad spectrum of product
processing cabilities. It is recommended for free-flowing dry and semidry product applications including textured vegetable protein, peanut
butter, chicken slurries, surimi, baby food, dehydrated potato flakes,
fruit and vegetable pastes, horseradish and dressings, extruded
products, biscuits and cookies, nuts, fruit pulp, various spices, corn
masa, hard cheeses, and a variety of gels, ointments, and creams.
This precision cutting principle has proven to be a processing
breakthrough, with the versatility to meet your size reduction needs
from coin size particles to fine emulsions. Standard operations include
comminuting, granulating, milling, flaking, slicing, liquefying, dispersing,
and pureeing.
Sealed enclosure deters escape of dust, vapor, and liquid when the
Comitrol Processor is installed in conjunction with a collection system.
Stainless steel construction ensures maximum durability and sanitation.
The machine features continuous operation for uninterrupted
production, and simplified design for easy cleanup and maintenance.
Product is guided to the high speed, rotating impeller. When
product reaches the impeller, it revolves at a high speed inside the
cutting head. Centrifugal force propels the product outward past the
cutting edges of the stationary reduction head. Small portions of
product projecting into the spaces between the separators are cut off
into flakes by spaced columns of vertical knives. These flakes fly
outward and away from the cutting head. The wall surfaces between
the vertical knives are relieved to eliminate rubbing friction that would
produce heat.
