1 Packaging - Processing Bid on E cuipr t nel: SIZE REDUCTION Pulping Fine Dispersing and Homogenizing High Speed Shredding Wet Grinding of Fibrous Foods ANGLE DISINTEGRATORS RA & RP Series RA Disintegrator j Bowl & Cover Both Series RP Disintegrator Direct drive RP Disintegrators are used for the majority of sanitary size reduction operations. For applications that require variable, non-synchronous or high speeds, belt driven RA models are used. FEATURES Sanitary construction, accepted for use in USDAinspected plants. Exceptionally easy to maintain and to clean conventionally or CIP. Overhung rotor design keeps bearings out of product contact area, and permits easy removal of parts for inspection and cleaning. Single band-clamp cover attachment allows quick access to all product contact parts, speeds screen changes and clean-up. Both models are equipped with 360 screens to insure uniform results with low temperature rise, reduced HP requirements and less vibration. Overhung shaft on RA models permits fast belt changes. Standard foot-mounted, horizontal motors are used for minimum cost and maximum flexibility.

3 Bid on EctiLipment PUMPING OF FRAGILE FOODS For pumping foods with pieces up to one inch in size. RIETZ/GRACE FOOD PUMP Working like a squeegee, the impeller cleanly and gently pushes the food ahead of it to the discharge port. This design does away with the roller-mill-nip-action that always crushes some food particles in pumps with rounded rotors. Constructed of stainless steel and selected, approved plastics, the Rietz/Grace Pump is crevice-free, designed and finished to meet all requirements for fully hygienic food handling. APPLICATIONS Examples of foods that can be safely transported by sanitary Rietz/Grace Pumps include: Meatballs, chunks and dices; Vegetables including diced tomatoes and leafy mixes in liquids; Fruit pie fillings, desserts, candies with fruit or nuts; Salads, raviolis, snack foods, dips and similar convenience foods for varied types of packing; Pickles, relishes, chutneys and other condiments containing pieces that must be kept whole and undamaged. HEAT EXCHANGE Heating or Cooling of Meats and a Variety of Fruits and Vegetables THERMASCREWS TJ Series Heat transfer medium circulates through screw, flights and jacketed trough, for continous operation with minimum floor space requirements. Handles slurries containing solids without damage to product. All product contact parts are of sanitary stainless steel construction. Heat exchange media include high pressure steam, water, refrigerants and hot oil. Available for pressure or vacuum operation, and in intermeshing, multiple screw units. Standard screw diameters from 8" to 24" larger diameters on special order. TYPICAL APPLICATIONS Cooking Meat Diced Tomatoes Pie Fillings Crushed Pineapple Mushrooms Cranberries Fruit in Syrup 4

6 pigoleaiattent PRESSING For most foods including fruits and vegetables with high pectin and starch content, and foods that "pack" under pressure. HORIZONTAL CONTINUOUS S-PRESS RSP Series Patented Rotating Cushion Cone Press liquor from the three stages of pressing can be collected separately. Stainless steel contact parts protect against corrosion and assure maximum product quality. Features such as counter-weighted screens allow easy cleaning with much less down time, and increased sanitation during operation. Vari-Speed Drive and adaptability to a variety of perforated drain screens offer maximum flexibility for desirable results with different products under varying conditons. High yields are attained from patented "Creeping Cushion Cone" design that overcomes tendency of many products to "channel" and discharge before pressing is fully completed. Liquid is drained through 360 of the cone. Rietz cushion cone, rotating at a different RPM than the screw, assures maximum liquid removal, by preventing press cake from obstructing the discharge area. The air cylinder assures constant pressure on the cone even at varying feed rate and liquid content yielding a cake with controlled moisture content. RIETZ PRESSING SYSTEM I PRODUCT 'PAPER PICKER For processes that require size reduction and press aid, Rietz Disintegrators and Rietz Paper Pickers combine with the S-Press to provide a complete system.
