Nut Butters
Manufacturing
Plant

A nut butter is a spread made by grinding nuts into a paste. Usually, nut butters have a high fat content as well as high content of protein, fiber, and essential fatty acids, and can be used to replace butter or margarine. Nut butters can also be used as dipping sauces, toppings for oatmeal or smoothie bowls, and ingredients in Asian sauces.. Nut butters include:

Market Size of Nut Butters Manufacturing

The global nut butters market size is valued at more than USD 3000 million. The market for nut butters is increasing due to the increased consumption of edible nuts and increased awareness of the health benefits associated with nuts.

Ingredients used in Nut Butters Manufacturing

  • Roasted Nuts

  • Salt

  • Sugar

  • Oil

  • Flavours

  • Preservatives

  • Emulsifiers

High Shear & High Viscosity Mixing Technology
for Nut Butters Manufacturing

High-shear mixers or high-shear homogenizers are used to produce standard mixtures of ingredients that do not naturally mix. This industrial machinery disperses, or transports, one phase or ingredient (liquid, solid, gas) into a main continuous phase (liquid), with which it would normally be immiscible. A rotor, together with a stationary component known as a stator, or an array of rotors and stators, is used in a mixing tank containing the solution to be mixed, and in a pipe through which the solution passes, to create shear. A high-shear homogenizer mixer is used to create emulsions, suspensions, lyosols (gas dispersed in liquid), and granular products. It is used in the food, pharmaceutical, adhesives, chemical, cosmetic, and plastics industries for emulsification, homogenization, particle size reduction, and dispersion.

Key design factors in the high shear mixers include the diameter of the rotor and its rotational speed, the distance between the rotor and the stator. 

Nut Butters Manufacturing Plant

United Group's Nut Butters Manufacturing Plant uses the high shear and high viscosity mixing technology for production of nut butters with a smooth, creamy texture and consistency.

​

​

United Group's Nut Butters Manufacturing Plant incorporates various equipments as per different capacities. A typical nut butters plant that manufactures 250kg of material in 30 minutes, following technology is used:

​

  1. Pulverizer

  2. Pulper

  3. Mixing Vessel

  4. Agitator

  5. Bottom Entry Mixer

  6. Inline Homogenizer Mixer

  7. Storage Tanks

  8. Control Panel

  9. Additional pipelines and vessels

In large scale production for nut butters of more than 500kg in 30 minutes, the capabilities of a standard nut butters plant need to be advanced with the use of intensely robust and highly efficient High-Shear Multi Mill. The Multi-Mill increases the plant's efficiency to process high viscosity products at a high speed. 
 

Advantages of Multi-Mill for Nut Butters Production:

  • Can Process Capacity 1 Tonne/Hour to 20 Tonnes/Hour

  • The same machinery can be used for multiple applications, simply by changing the workheads

  • 100% Efficiency, ensuring no bypass of product through the homogenization process

  • The material used for making is SS-304

  • 20-40 HP Third-Party Motor

  • Easy to Clean and Maintain
