This project was a custom designed 2,000 LB stainless steel butter tank. We built it by taking the design of our 2,000 LB top drive chocolate melting tank and modifying it to meet our customer’s specific requirements to process butter instead of chocolate. The biggest challenge was to redesign the tank lid, motor mount and shaft for the mixer to create more open space for them to access the top of the tank. We also needed to modify the mixer that is used inside the tank to be less aggressive so it creates less shear forces when processing the butter.
