Burdosa Mixing GR80 Margarine Processing

Burdosa (often associated with Burtech or Herwig Burget) manufactures industrial continuous mixing and liquid dispersion equipment—such as the Burdosa GR80 dynamic loop mixer-emulsifier. 

Key Features of Burdosa Mixers (e.g., Model GR80)

• Design: Totally enclosed, symmetric-cylindrical inline continuous dynamic loop mixer. 
• Function: Provides continuous back-mixing, dispersion, and emulsification by guiding components through a central mixing zone. 

• Shearing Tools: Can be fitted with interchangeable shearing heads depending on whether the process requires gentle mixing, standard blending, whipping, or fine emulsification. 
• Capacity & Power: Typically rated around 60 to 92 gallons per minute (depending on configuration and product viscosity) and powered by a ~5.3 to 5.5 HP (4.0 kW) motor. 

• Sanitation: Designed to be CIP (Clean-in-Place) compatible for food-grade processing. 

Application in Margarine Production

In margarine and fat-blend processing lines, dynamic loop or inline high-shear mixers are used to:

• Blend the water-and-oil (fat) phases together into a preliminary emulsion before it moves to scraped-surface heat exchangers/crystallizers. 
• Jongia Mixing Technology +1
• Incorporate minor liquid or solid additives (such as emulsifiers, salt, or vitamins) uniformly into the continuous or dispersed phase. 
• Jongia Mixing Technology
• Maintain controlled residence and back-mixing to prevent phase separation before chilling and texturizing
