Mallet CPG 1100 Features
The Mallet CPG 1100’s innovative design addresses critical production challenges through several breakthrough features including patented PosiSpray* smart spray and detection technology which revolutionizes release agent application in industrial baking:
- Optimal Coverage: Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) nozzles ensure a tiny droplet size for greater release agent surface area. Pans get the highest level of coverage to ensure flawless depanning.
- Solids and Non-Solids Capability: The CPG 1100 is designed to spray both solids-containing and non-solids formulations with optimal pan coverage.
- Patented PosiSpray Technology: PosiSpray technology monitors spray nozzles to confirm each spray and immediately notify plant personnel of any missed sprays. This ensures that pans are coated and lowers the risk of depanning issues down the line.
- Advanced Troubleshooting Support: On-screen adjustment and alarm capabilities allow for faster adjustments on the floor. This minimizes downtime and maintenance resources.
The system includes comprehensive options, including mist collection, pan stop functionality, heated supply systems, and reservoir configurations. Multiple nozzle bar options allow customization for specific production lines and requirements.
Vantage Food will display it’s Mallet-brand of precision spray equipment alongside its award-winning OptiRelease portfolio of release agents at IBIE (International Baking Industry Expo) at the Las Vegas Convention Center from September 14-17 – Booth 2416 in the West Hall.
