Agitated Vessels for Food and Beverage Production
Agitated vessels for food and beverage production are sanitary mixing systems designed to blend, cook, and process food products while meeting FDA, 3-A, and food safety requirements. These vessels provide efficient mixing with surfaces and construction appropriate for food contact and hygienic manufacturing environments.
Why are Agitated Vessels Needed for Food and Beverage Production?
Food and beverage production requires agitated vessels that deliver consistent product quality while meeting strict sanitary standards. Proper agitation ensures uniform ingredient incorporation, consistent cooking, and homogeneous final products. Sanitary design enables complete cleaning between batches for food safety.

Agitated Vessels for Food and Beverage Production FAQs
What sanitary certifications do you provide?
We fabricate vessels to 3-A Sanitary Standards, EHEDG guidelines, and FDA requirements. Vessels feature appropriate surface finishes, sanitary connections, full drainage, and CIP capability. Documentation supports food safety compliance including FSMA requirements.
How do you design for viscous food products?
Viscous product mixing uses appropriate impeller types (anchors, helical ribbons), adequate power input, and scraped-surface designs when needed for heat transfer. Our CFD analysis optimizes mixing for products from thin liquids to heavy pastes, ensuring complete incorporation and uniform processing.
