PRODUCT SHOWCASE

AlveoLab

Muyang Group

Grain cooling

The Alveograph, by CHOPIN Technologies, is
used daily by the wheat breeding, grain storage, milling and baking industries to measure
the viscoelastic properties of wheat flours. The
new AlveoLab is more accurate and easier to
run. Key steps of the test are now fully automated to limit the impact of the operator. In
addition, dough bubbles are made in a fully
temperature and humidity-controlled chamber.
With the AlveoLab, new test protocols can be
easily designed to meet specific applications
and make the Alveograph analysis an even
better predictor of flour performance.

With its headquarters in the historic city of
Yangzhou, Jiangsu Muyang Group Co.,

Additives, enzymes

Mobile pneumatic unloader

Giotto wheat scrubber

Engrain LLC, based in Manhattan, Kansas,
U.S., provides the global flour milling industry
with performance additives as well as essential enrichment premixes. Engrain's technology
is showcased in its flagship product, volMAX.
This blend of proprietary enzymes along with
a complete oxidation strategy allows flour
millers to reduce up to 1% flour protein while
maintaining and even exceeding quality parameters for loaf volume, water absorption,
dough handling and crumb quality. Engrain
has partnered with more than 30 global flour
milling companies to provide this technology.

VIGAN Engineering S.A. (Belgium) manufactures a large range of equipment for handling
grain and other agricultural products in bulk.
The Mobile Pneumatic Unloader type 200 is
one of the most popular. It offers maximum unloading capacity up to 250 tph, either on ship
deck, on a hopper or directly at quay level; no
dust emission, working only in suction and selfcleaning filter included; it is suitable for barges
and coasters but also for Panamax vessels. More
details are available at www.vigan.com.

Omas' Giotto scrubber uses patented abrasive
action and forced ventilation to remove up to
1.5% of the wheat's outer bran layers. With
only 2 Kw/hour per tonne of wheat-installed
power, Giotto is able to remove entirely all
the organic and inorganic impurities and to
improve by 20% the water penetration time
during the wheat conditioning phase. It also
features motorized adjustable degree of peeling to remove bacteria, mycotoxins, mold and
other impurities.
