Marlen International to exhibit at Anuga FoodTec

Marlen International, Inc., a manufacturer of food processing equipment and systems, and a member of the Duravant family of operating companies, will be exhibiting its newest Carruthers, Afoheat, and Unitherm food processing equipment innovations at Anuga FoodTec.

Marlen will be showcasing its latest Afoheat solutions for grilling, braising, roasting, searing, and bar marking which enhance the appearance, aroma, and taste of food products. Afoheat’s continuous thermal processing equipment is known for innovative construction and sanitary design elements.

Marlen will also unveil its newest Carruthers dicer – a VFD version of the new DuraKut™ 6000 Series. With sanitation and ease-of-use in mind, the 12” CE-Compliant machine is equipped with VFD motors for two-dimensional cubing and strip cutting of fresh or cooked food products and features a novel approach to a parts and sanitation cart for easy assembly and disassembly. With continuous flow processing and high throughputs, this next generation dicer platform is controlled via Allen-Bradley’s newest MobileView™ HMI for the most user-friendly and intuitive interface.

“We are very pleased about the opportunity to exhibit our newest product family, Unitherm, which includes a Micro Line for cooking and chilling, a Mini Spiral Oven and the Aquaflow, a continuous sous vide cooker,” stated Marlen’s President, Bob Campbell. “Additionally, you’ll find our executive chefs running live demonstrations and serving fresh eats prepared on a Unitherm Micro Spiral Oven throughout the show.”

Jan Erik Kuhlmann, Senior Vice President of global sales, added, “Since last year’s acquisitions of Afoheat and Unitherm, this is our first opportunity on an international level to bring all of our family brands – Marlen, Afoheat, Carruthers and Unitherm – under one roof where we’ll feature our latest innovative food processing equipment."
