Shaka Retorts

Allpax offers shaka retorts as part of the R&D line of retort equipment. The shaka retorts utilize a reciprocating actuator to agitate the containers back and forth vigorously. This shaka agitation causes a thorough mixing of the product which increases heat transfer. The better heat transfer allows for faster come-up times and better product quality. Because the agitation is linear, all containers are subjected to the same agitation forces.

The shaka retort process offers you:

• Constant and through product mixing.
• Uniform heat distribution.
• Process time reduction.
• Stove top quality with shelf stability.
• Excellent mouth feel and texture.
• Impressive visual appearance.
• Significantly improved taste.

The Allpax 2402 Multimode R&D retort, 3802 Multimode R&D retort and our production-sized 1300 Shaka Retort are capable of running the Shaka process.

If you're interested in testing the Shaka Process with your product, contact Allpax today and ask about our small-scale shaka retort units or testing in our in-house lab.
