Process engineering solutions

Based on numerous process engineering options, Lödige systems can be designed and used for numerous products and production steps. For instance, in addition to the conventional mixing step, it is possible to combine the additional process steps usually required by the food industry in one Lödige system. This can make, for example, work-intensive pre-mixing unnecessary. All systems listed below are available both in production sizes and in sizes suitable for Laboratory work.
