A double shaft paddle mixer, including a barrel chamber, and a first paddle screw and a second paddle screw. The first paddle screw is provided with first paddles and the second paddle screw is provided with second paddles. The barrel chamber includes a crushing zone and a mixing zone. The crushing zone is partly separated from the mixing zone by a partition member. A first inlet is connected to the crushing zone and a second inlet is connected to the mixing zone and an outlet connected to the mixing zone. The double shaft paddle mixer can be part of an arrangement and part of a method for producing paste.

A system for preparing recipes with components coming from closed containers (S1-S5) provides for using one or more robotic units (1), each of which withdraws a selected container, arranging a plurality of hoppers (7.1-7.5), in each of which the withdrawn selected container is inserted by the robotic unit (1), and in each of which the container is automatically opened for loading the component into the hopper (7), discharging a preset component dose from each hopper (7), and collecting the dosed components for preparing the required recipe; a driving and control unit (15) provides for driving and controlling all of these operations as a function of the required recipe. Thereby, an automatic system for preparing recipes is achieved, which is fast, with a low processing cost, and free from risks related to the processing.

Devices for treating aqueous pulps of organic materials usable in the food industry, perfumes, in the production of technical and food alcohol, in the processing of organic waste, etc., are provided. A rotary-pulsation device contains a drive, a stator, and a rotor installed in a housing. A vibration sensor is installed on an outer side of the stator to diagnose conditions of the working bodies and for continuous correction the shaft rotation speed. Reliability of the rotary-pulsation device and processing efficiency are increased by reducing manual cleaning related stops and breakage-related failures. The scope of usage is expanded because automatic processing of water pulps containing large-sized and extended fragments becomes possible; the treated pulp is saturated with small gas bubbles; and automation capabilities may be expanded when integrating the device into substrate processing systems.
