continuous mixer
Quick Summary
A continuous mixer is a type of mixer where ingredients are introduced, mixed, and discharged in a continuous operation, as opposed to a batch mixer. In some applications, like in the production of chemically leavened baked goods, continuous mixers pump batter through an enclosed chamber. Inside this chamber, a rotating disk mixes the ingredients. These mixers can also be pressurized to incorporate gas into the batter and may have systems to control temperature.12
