Comitrol® M3600S
Did you know over 70% of coffee and tea extraction efficiency depends on particle size? In a market where flavour and consistency define product success, manufacturers can’t afford to get this step wrong. Achieving a premium end product starts with precise size reduction of your raw ingredients, ensuring optimal surface area for flavour capture. When particle size is inconsistent, extraction efficiency suffers — leading to wasted product, undesirable bitterness, or weak flavour profiles.
For processors using integrated extraction systems, controlling the particle size of roasted coffee beans and tea leaves is critical. Too coarse, and valuable flavour compounds may not fully extract. Too fine, and over-extraction can cause excess bitterness. Achieving the perfect balance requires advanced technology — this is where Urschel’s Comitrol® processors make all the difference. Importance of Particle Size in Extraction In modern coffee and tea processing, ingredients are mixed with water to create a slurry, essential in producing coffee essences, instant coffee, and tea concentrates. The efficiency of flavour extraction is directly linked to precise size reduction. Oversized or inconsistent particles result in uneven extraction, reducing yield and overall quality. Urschel’s Comitrol processors ensure a highly controlled, uniform particle size, delivering: • Maximised flavour capture – More surface area exposure enhances aroma retention • Higher yield efficiency – Improved extraction of soluble coffee or tea compounds
•
Process consistency – Ensures uniformity across production batches
Comitrol M3600S – Uniform particle size for optimal extraction. The Comitrol M3600S is a leading solution for grinding roasted coffee beans and tea leaves. Its precision size reduction ensures uniform particles, optimising slurry preparation and preventing inconsistencies that lead to flavour degradation. This translates to a better-quality final product — whether for ready-to-drink (RTD) coffee extracts or premium instant tea concentrates. Comitrol M1700 - Versatility for Instant Coffee & Tea For manufacturers needing greater flexibility, the Comitrol M1700 offers multiple cutting options in a single machine. It allows finetuning of particle size for: • Finely milled coffee or tea powders for instant extraction • Micro-cut tea leaves for enhanced flavour infusion • Pre-ground coffee for instant formulations with consistent texture

Maximise valuable production floor space by combining multiple product-cutting actions in one versatile machine. The DiversaCut 2100A® Dicer produces dices, strips, slices, granulates, and shreds at high production capacities. Widely recognised throughout industry as an excellent choice for size reduction of fruit and vegetables, bakery ingredients, dairy products, meat, poultry, seafood, pet food and meat-alternative products. DiversaCut 2100A® The generous product input size of up to 10inches (254mm) saves time by eliminating the need to precut large-format products. A variety of slices from 1.6mm to 25mm are achieved simply by turning the slice adjustment knob. Additional options for dicing of 3.2mm to 25mm can be added. Simple adjustment of collars on circular and crosscut spindles provides fine-tuning for ultimate precision. The DiversaCut 2100A features streamlined stainless steel construction and hinge access panels to promote easy sanitation and maintenance. The compact cutting zone, separate from the mechanical zone, is designed for hygiene. The DiversaCut offers exceptional versatility through its innovative knife configurations. The process begins with centrifugal force, which holds the product firmly against the drum surface while paddles transport it past
the slicing knife. For enhanced size reduction, optional circular knives and crosscut spindles can be integrated. As slices exit the rotating drum, they can pass through an optional circular knife spindle that cuts them into uniform strips. Further refinement is possible with the addition of a crosscut spindle, allowing the DiversaCut 2100A to uniformly dice products into various sizes, from 3.2mm to 25mm, in both square and rectangular shapes.

For those seeking specialised cuts, the equipment can also accommodate crinkle cut slicing and dicing by substituting for crinkle slicing knives and crinkle crosscut knives. Choose from three models, the standard DiversaCut 2100A and conveyor discharge model, both with 10”(254mm) diameter input capacity or the larger product input machine that accepts products as large as 14” (356mm) in diameter.
