What type of baked good is a staple during the three primary meals we enjoy daily? The answer is the bagel, which can be found on breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus. For breakfast, bagels often accompany classic omelet dishes and are the perfect complement to a glass of orange juice. At lunch, bagels make the ultimate top and bottom of a lox and bagel sandwich. The versatile baked good is served in various ways for a dinner course. The dough recipes that form bagels require special machines, which Exact Mixing has designed as continuous mixing systems for manufacturing bagels.
What Are the Advantages of Operating a Continuous Mixing System?
Continuous mixers operate on the principle of constantly feeding ingredients into a machine. All four stages of the dough-blending process are in action simultaneously, allowing your commercial bakery to increase production volumes substantially. Another key advantage of installing a continuous mixer at your bakery is automated technology. Automation eliminates the need to schedule employees to monitor the entire dough-blending process. The result is that your bakery saves money on labor costs while at the same time ensuring the highest quality of dough products.
Automation is also an essential part of proprietary Hydrobond Technology, which mixers dry and wet ingredients together on a particle-by-particle basis. Hydrobond Technology ensures dough remains consistent in size, shape, weight, and texture. You do not have to address surface imperfections like cracks, lumps, and troughs. Advanced automated technology plays a role in conserving energy, which leads to lower energy bills and a smaller carbon footprint for your commercial bakery. The motor of each machine sits under the gearbox and drive shaft, which means continuous mixers allow your employees to look straight into a machine while standing next to one.
What is the Right Continuous Mixing System for Manufacturing Bagels?
The engineers at Exact Mixing have designed five different continuous mixing systems. The question is, which model is the right system for manufacturing bagels? Because of the ability to change kneading speeds, the perfect continuous mixing system for manufacturing bagels is the HDX Continuous Mixer. This machine generates the power required to mix the dough ingredients used to form thick baked goods such as bagels, buns, bread, hard rolls, and English muffins. A twin-screw blade mixes dry and wet ingredients during the first stage. Then, the system sends the mixed ingredients to the development stage, where a single-screw blade kneads the dough.
Proving Our Customers With Superior Support
The engineers at Exact Mixing do much more than design continuous mixing systems for manufacturing bagels. They also ensure our customers learn how to maximize each continuous mixer’s performance, including the HDX Continuous Mixer, which specializes in creating dough to form thick baked goods. Our engineers present live demonstrations of all the continuous mixing systems at the Reading Bakery Systems Science & Innovation Center in Sinking Spring, Pennsylvania.
After the live demonstrations, you will have the opportunity to work with the different continuous mixer models using your unique ingredients. One of our engineers will help you learn how to install each component and offer advice on how to optimize performance. If your bakery creates the dough used to form bagels, you can expect to spend most of your time operating the HDX Continuous Mixer.
