Many industries, such as the food processing, utilize kneader reactors to produce goods, as for example, polymers or chewing gum.
Although the machine has existed for decades, kneader reactors are only recently gaining popularity in the processing industry.
The kneader reactor uses very high viscosity materials such as chewing gum, dough, toffee, Plasticine, rubber, silicone, adhesive or resin.
More recently, manufacturers have sought technological solutions that allow synthesis in the concentrated phase, minimizing or eliminating the use of solvents and thus intensifying the process.
Such units are characterized by high yield per performance volume and also have the flexibility to produce different grades and/or products.
