Benefits
Special Highlights
Compact and powerful
The water-cooled servo motor of the Codos® NT delivers high torque with minimal space requirements while reducing energy costs compared to conventional three-phase motors.
Easy operation, simple maintenance
Thanks to the large maintenance openings and the easy-to-open lid, maintenance work can be carried out quickly and easily. Seals, bearings, and couplings can be replaced without dismantling the shaft – saving both time and money.
High sealing integrity
With IP66 protection, the Codos® NT is well protected against powerful water jets. When optionally mounted on load cells, it enables precise monitoring of the current fill level.
Maximum flexibility thanks to modular design
The modular design allows for individual customization: standard lids, swivel lids, or cleaning lids (WIP) can be exchanged as needed. Variable filling elements are available for liquid components.
Minimized downtime through easy cleaning
A well-designed construction enables quick and easy cleaning, minimizing downtime. Naturally, the Codos® NT meets all hygiene regulations.
Optimized trough design
The double-walled container design ensures efficient cooling and maximum performance.
Application Areas
Industries
Dough formation takes place in the horizontally operating, continuous Codos® NT kneader. Special helical, intermeshing twin shafts introduce the energy required for kneading into the dough, allowing the gluten network in the wheat dough to develop. Stirrup-shaped kneading attachments on the twin shafts ensure gentle kneading without cutting the dough.
The product-specific energy input, as well as the dough’s residence time, can be controlled via the kneading shaft speed. Thanks to the double-walled trough design, which can be both heated and cooled, the dough consistently maintains the desired temperature. This allows the target dough temperature to be kept within a narrow tolerance range.
