Shuffle Mix, an ingenious adaptation of the traditional milk churning process, has a stainless steel bar (instead of a typical milk churn holed handle) with tube-mounted multiple discs pumping the product and the air, which creates turbulence behind the discs to mix the air with the product for an evenly blended mixture.
Now, in addition to the basic aerated foam, different flavourings in the form of syrups can be individually injected into the incoming material, prior to mixing and aerating, via a metering injection pump, without the need to fully clean down the system to change syrup types.
Particulate fruit compotes can now be created, post aeration.

Repeat order from top cakes producer
Turbo Systems, the market-leading specialists in the design and manufacture of equipment for the food industry, have just received a repeat order from one of the country's top cakes producers
A blending island with a small mixing head and a metering system to control particulate flow can produce fruit fool and fresh and synthetic cream fillings with fruit pieces.
When manufacturing meringue, for instance, a vibrating feeder and a static in-line mixing tube can now be used to introduce and blend sugar crystals into the flow of an aerated egg white base.
Shuffle Mix can deal with particle sizes as small as 5mm cubed and allows 95% of the product to be processed because product resistance is almost eliminated, ensuring low temperatures and allowing a large number of products to be produced without additional cooling, although a cooling system can be fitted.
The mixing chamber has virtually no dead spots with 0.5mm clearance between aeration pin discs and the chamber wall, increasing product quality as it passes through the shearing action.
There are two stainless steel, in-line mixing tubes with a shaft onto which shuffle discs are fitted and a fixed jacketed stainless steel pipe (the mixtube) for cooling or heating liquid to circulate, maintaining optimum product temperature.
The easily cleaned, quickly moved system has a small footprint and PLC controls for simple integration with existing systems.
Handling products from 50 litres - 1000 litres, the enhanced Shuffle Mix range gives Turbo the capacity to premix, pump, aerate and deposit a variety of products, including cakes, sponges, creams, macaroons, Swiss rolls and other aerated products.
The Turbo Systems UK sales manager Clive Butcher commented: "Shuffle Mix ideally complements our long experience with our filling and depositing machinery and it allows us to provide the most comprehensive and logical range of equipment options for the UK food manufacturing industry.
Now with the further enhancements to Shuffle Mix, we have the most innovative product offer available.".
