<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Lewis &amp; Raby manufactures catering equipment for specialist purposes such as bespoke decorative cake stands.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This food grade stainless steel cake stand was created to hold a four tier cake weighing 40kg, including 8kg of icing(!)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The two-tier cake stand was welded, cleaned and powder coated white to the specifications of the cake designer.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The top tier is bolted to five tubing supports for extra strength.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As the cake needed extra support, we also sourced reinforced dowels for the cake maker.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The wedding cake, which was 8 tiers in all, was a massive hit and Lewis &amp; Raby are very pleased to have helped with the special day.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Lewis &amp; Raby can make any cake stand you require in a range of materials and painted to the colour of your choice.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Lewis &amp; Raby is a manufacturer of cyclone vegetable destoners used in the food processing industry for the effective removal of stones and earth from vegetables such as carrots, potatoes and parsnips.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The destoner is filled with water from the bottom creating a cyclone of water within the large cone. Stones, earth and other waste material fall to the bottom of the cone while the vegetable produce floats to the top. Vegetables are extracted via a chute at the top of the cone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Our destoners can be manufactured in a variety of steel grades including stainless steel or mild steel and engineered to the highest international standards ensuring that each destoner has a high separation efficiency.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The destoner&nbsp;pictured has a capacity output of 30 tonnes per hour (tph), but each destoner we make is built individually to our customer’s specific requirements.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Lewis &amp; Raby is a manufacturer of food chilling vacuum pressure chambers. These vacuum vessels are designed to rapidly cool cooked food produce which has been heated to a high temperature.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The unit is particularly suited for situations when conventional cooling by refrigeration alone is not sufficiently fast for high volumes of produce.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Our chamber is constructed in high quality 316 stainless steel and is capable of reducing the temperature of the produce from 80°C to 15°C in 15 minutes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Food produce can be loaded and unloaded on trays or trolleys. Once the chamber is loaded and safely locked, the chilling process is fully automatic at the press of a button. The chamber door openings can be hinged or sliding.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The door and front end of the chamber can be located inside a High Care Area, whilst the external rear of the chamber can be positioned through a dividing wall in a non-food plant area.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Alternatively the complete chamber may be located in the High Care Area with the plant located remotely.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Either way, hygiene integrity is maintained by ensuring that the vacuum plant, refrigeration plant and control equipment are totally isolated from the product area.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Operator safety is ensured by a control voltage of 24 VDC. The standard system requires an electrical power supply of 3PN + E 400v 50 Hz 100 A/Phase.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Our standard unit is 2.2m (l) x 2.0m (h) x 1.2m (w) but we can tailor the size and design of each chamber to our customers’ specific requirements.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Please contact our team of engineers for further information: <a href="mailto:enquiries@lewisandraby.co.uk">enquiries@lewisandraby.co.uk</a>&nbsp;or 0151 546 2882.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The glass trolley frame is made from mild steel box section and is fully welded together for maximum strength and stability.</p>
