Benefits
Special Highlights
Easy operation
Thanks to the large maintenance openings and the easy-to-open lid, maintenance work is quick and straightforward. Seals, bearings, and couplings can be replaced without dismantling the shaft – saving both time and costs.
High sealing integrity
With IP66 protection, the Codos® NT is well shielded against powerful water jets. When optionally mounted on load cells, it also enables precise monitoring of the current fill level.
Maximum flexibility
The modular design allows for individual customization: standard lids, swivel lids, or cleaning lids (WIP) can be interchanged as needed. Variable filling elements are available for liquid components.
Minimized downtime
A well-thought-out design enables fast and easy cleaning, minimizing downtime. Naturally, the Codos® NT complies with all hygiene regulations.
Codos® NT
Gentle Kneading for Outstanding Dough Quality
Dough formation takes place in the horizontally operating, continuous Codos® NT kneader. The required energy input is generated by helical, intermeshing twin shafts. During kneading, the gluten network of the wheat dough is developed. Stirrup-shaped kneading elements on the twin shafts ensure gentle processing without cutting the dough. The energy input can be precisely adjusted via the kneading shaft speed.
Thanks to the double-walled trough design, the dough can be heated or cooled as needed, ensuring the target dough temperature is consistently maintained. The uniform residence time guarantees consistently high dough quality and helps reduce product waste.
