Urshel - Comitrol Urshel Milling & Pureeing Machine

Applications & Use Cases

• Fine comminution of a wide range of food products, including fruits, vegetables, and meats.
• Production of purees, pastes, and emulsions for sauces, baby food, and fillings.
• Size reduction of ingredients for confectionery, bakery, and snack food manufacturing.
• Reclaiming of off-cuts and trim in food processing operations.
• Preparation of ingredients for further processing, such as drying or extraction.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

Throughput for this class of equipment can vary significantly, typically ranging from 500 kg/hr to several tonnes per hour, depending on product and desired particle size.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a 3-phase industrial power supply, typically 400V, 50Hz in the UK, with motor sizes ranging from 15 kW to 75 kW.

Feed material size

Suitable feed material size is typically pre-cut or diced product, as large whole items may require pre-reduction for optimal performance.

Particle size control

Precision milling is achieved through interchangeable cutting heads and impellers, allowing for a wide range of particle sizes from coarse to sub-micron.

Construction material

Process contact parts are typically constructed from stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for hygiene and corrosion resistance in food applications.

Footprint

For this model series, the footprint is typically compact for its capacity, often requiring approximately 1.5m x 1m of floor space, plus access for maintenance.
