PRODUCTS & PACKAGING

MASA SHEETER

Heat and Control's Paragon Automatic Weight Control Sheeter requires no
manual adjustment to produce consistent,
uniform corn tortillas and chips. The roll
gap on Paragon is determined by actual
product piece weight, rather than sheet
thickness. The operator simply places a
product sample on one of the scales located on each side of the sheeter, and the roll
gap automatically adjusts to maintain the
preprogrammed target weight. Settings
for different products are retrieved from a
preset menu via touch screen. The hinged
rear roll support pivots on bearings to
maintain precise roll gap and alignment.
Differential speed rolls require only one
stripping wire on the front roll, while
direct drives eliminate the maintenance
required for drive belts, sprockets and
chains. The open-frame, washdown

construction reduces cleaning and
changeover time. Phone (510) 259-0500;

SPIN DISK COATER
The Fedco Spin Disk Coater from The
Peerless Group accurately sprays solutions ranging from a fine mist to a heavy

soaking, to the top, bottom and sides of
a wide variety of products traveling on a
conveyor. It sprays solutions such as oils,
seasonings, flavorings, batters, glazes,
preservatives, moisture barriers or release
agents. Applications include breads, rolls,
pizza crusts, pita bread, frozen breaded
products, bagels, crackers, snacks and
rice cakes. Total uniform coverage of the
product is achieved through the use of
spinning disks located above and below
the conveyor. Disks can be custom designed to meet specific application needs.
The spray pattern is controlled to prevent
overspray. A solution filtering system prevents solids from reaching pumps. Metering pumps are constructed from stainless
steel. The unit features a NEMA 4X stainless steel watertight enclosure and meets
BISSC standards. Phone (937) 492-4158;
