Langsenkamp Mfg.

Product Preparation

Batch and continuous processing systems require clean, efficient tanks and material processing equipment. We produce top quality products that store, heat, blend, and move your product through each stage. We build custom stainless steel tanks for cleaning, blanching, holding, cooking, heating, cooling, mixing, and blending. Tanks from 250 to 4000 gallons, heat exchangers, can openers and crushers.

Tanks
       Our custom built tanks are currently supporting food, chemical, pharmaceutical and industrial processing applications. They include open and closed top, rotary and fixed heating or cooking coils, and mixing, agitation or hot break systems. Our tanks feature heavy duty stainless steel construction and standard sizes range from 250 to 1500 gallons. We also have the ability to fabricate tanks in larger sizes or different materials if the need exists.

Heat Exchangers
       Heat exchangers are designed and built to fit the specific needs of our customers. We also repair and rebuild heat exchangers for processing, temperature control, process stabilization and heat dissipation.

Can Openers
       Our can opener is designed specifically for use with #10, #12 and 5 Kilo cans. It has been designed to open and rinse these cans on a production basis. Using a hardened four-inch tubular stainless steel piercing plunger, this can opener will process fifteen cans per minute. This unit has a built in conveyor that feeds a star wheel to insure proper positioning of each can even if the can is damaged. Once the can has been pierced a high-pressure rinse head is introduced to complete the evacuation of product. The product is flushed into a built in holding tank that has a standard three inch Tri-Clamp fitting for drainage or pumping to the next step in your process.

Can Crushers
       The standard automatic can crusher has been developed to work with our can opener or to be used as a stand alone unit for the disposal of containers of any size or shape up to five gallons. When the container is removed from the crusher it has been compressed to a thickness of less than 5/8". The capacity of this machine is one hundred #10 cans per minute.

Twin Pass Rotary Coil
       The twin pass coil is designed to increase the evaporation rate of your product. This type of unit eliminates "burn-on" by providing continual agitation in the processing or holding tank. The twin pass design reduces the steam pressure drop through the coil to assure optimum use of the steam. The heat transfer rate of our twin pass coil is equal to 141% of conventional single or double coils. The fabricated coil can be accomplished in either copper or stainless steel. The stainless steel will yield a somewhat lower evaporation rate but is ideal in corrosive environments.

       Features include: non-lubricated graphite bearings, Johnson rotary joints with quick release nipples, stainless steel structural members to allow expansion and contraction without damage to the coil.

Fixed Cooking Coils
       The Kook-More coil has been designed to give maximum evaporating efficiency, ease of cleaning and simplicity of piping. This coil is built using three complete rounds of three-inch tubing. Each round is continuously supplied with fresh steam from divided headers. Condensation is eliminated in the discharge section of each header. This is accomplished at the end of every round of travel.

       The coils can be furnished ready for installation in your equipment or as part of a complete cooking system built in our factory. The coils come in copper or stainless steel and come in three standard sizes: twenty-seven inch, forty-two inch and sixty-inch diameter. The forty-two inch is ideal for a 500-gallon tank. It can be combined with a sixty-inch coil to meet the demands of a 1000-gallon tank. Adding a twenty-seven inch coil inside the forty-two inch coil can further increase heating capacity.
