Urschel 3600 Comitrol

• Fine comminution of a wide range of food products.
• Grinding and milling of dry ingredients such as biscuits or cereals.
• Size reduction for pastes, purees, and emulsions.
• Processing of confectionery and snack products.
• Reclamation of baked goods and other food waste streams.

Typical throughput

Varies significantly based on product and comminution head, but units of this class can process several tonnes per hour.

Power supply

Commonly 400V, 3 Phase, 50Hz, with motor sizes typically ranging from 7.5kW to 30kW for this model series.

Construction material

Predominantly stainless steel for food contact areas, ensuring hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Feed mechanism

Often screw-fed for consistent product delivery, especially with dry or semi-solid materials.

Comminution principle

Utilises a rotating impeller to accelerate product into a stationary reduction head, achieving precise particle size control.

Typical footprint

For mobile units, typically around 1.5m (L) x 1m (W) x 1.8m (H), excluding conveyors or ancillary equipment.
