Every great snack starts with the right mix. With advanced continuous systems from Exact Mixing, you can keep production moving without pauses, delivering dough or batter that’s precisely hydrated, perfectly textured, and ready for the next stage. By matching output to your line’s capacity, you get consistent quality, less waste, and higher throughput in every batch.
The Continuous Mixing Advantage
Exact Mixing’s continuous mixers replace stop-and-start cycles with a smooth, uninterrupted flow. Ingredients are metered into the mixer at exact rates, blended in multiple controlled stages, and delivered directly to the next process at the pace your line demands.
This approach:
- Keeps texture, hydration, and temperature within exact tolerances
- Eliminates the “holding” period that can affect dough performance
- Matches output precisely to downstream equipment capacity
- Supports higher throughput without sacrificing quality

Different snacks demand different dough or batter characteristics, and no single mixer can do it all perfectly. That’s why Exact Mixing has developed a range of continuous mixers, each engineered for specific textures, hydration levels, and inclusion requirements. Think of it as pairing the right tool with the right recipe—because in snack production, precision equals consistency.
EX Continuous Mixer
Best for: Pretzels, rye chips, bread snacks, crackers
Why it works:
- Designed to handle low to mid-absorption doughs where strong gluten development is critical
- Gently kneads to achieve structure without generating excessive heat, which can impact dough performance
- Maintains consistent texture batch after batch, ensuring every snack bakes to the same quality
FX Continuous Mixer
Best for: Potato crisps, corn chips, veggie chips, rice crisps
Why it works:
- Uses high-speed lofting to lift powders into an atomized mist of liquid, ensuring every particle is hydrated evenly
- Precisely controls moisture to produce a delicate, crispy bite without sogginess
- Ideal for low-moisture, hydroscopic powders that are difficult to mix in conventional systems
MX Continuous Mixer
Best for: Nut bars, protein bars, granola clusters, inclusion-rich doughs
Why it works:
- Handles high-fat, high-moisture doughs and batters without overmixing
- Allows inclusions such as nuts, seeds, chocolate chips, or dried fruit to be added at the final stage to prevent breakage
- Maintains a uniform blend while preserving the look, taste, and texture of premium inclusions
