Gelification
Overview
Solutions for accurate gelification of gelatine and other food products.
Gelification is a thermo-mechanical process that transforms liquid mixtures into structured, semi-solid products while maintaining integrity and stability.
Chemtech’s scraped surface heat exchangers are ideal for the heating or cooling of shear-sensitive ingredients, ensuring uniform results and full process control.
The technology is adaptable to a wide range of gels and proteins, available in both oscillating and fixed configurations.
Key benefit
Benefits
Thanks to innovative technologies and high-quality materials, we offer systems that adapt to real production needs, improving yield and product quality.
01.
Precise thermal control
The system provides highly accurate temperature regulation, essential for activating and stabilizing gelling agents, while avoiding thermal degradation of delicate components.
02.
Uniform gel structure
Thanks to the scraping action and flow control, the system ensures even gelification, eliminating phase separation or texture inconsistencies—even at high production volumes.
03.
Versatile application
Suitable for various end-markets, the system effectively processes a wide range of gelling agents such as pectin, agar, starches, and gelatin.

The models
PROCESSING
Chemetator - Fixed Unit
A range of scraped surface heat exchangers for cooling and gelling of concentrated gelatine extract prior to extrusion and drying. The system can be equipped with inclined extrusion tubes, combined with perforate plates for obtain gelatine noodles. The perforated plates permit an optimal drying on a drying belt before final grinding.
