Air Mizer Shaft Seal Upgrade Stops Costs and Product Loss from Piling Up
For a mixer that processes 15,000 lbs. of dry mix every hour, a leaking seal that requires replacement every six months is costly. Multiply these losses by 10 mixers, each operating three shifts a day, five days a week, and the accumulated losses become unsustainable.
At a food manufacturing facility in Toledo, Ohio, leaking mixers were losing 830 lbs. of pancake mix every week. Read how a split AM Food Grade design has saved the plant $18,750 per mixer each year.
