Continuous line for liquid nutritionals

Continuous Line for Liquid Nutritionals

This line is suitable for low to medium viscous formulations. It utilises our next-generation recirculation mixer, which adequately fulfills the demands of homogeneity with a mixing concept circulation over mixing tanks. The heat treatment is handled by Direct Steam Injection, which minimises heat load to the product and therefore ensures the highest product quality. The product is stored in an aseptic tank before the filling equipment.

Enhanced accuracy continuous line for liquid nutritionals

Enhanced Accuracy Continuous Line for Liquid Nutritionals

This line illustrates how to cope with the challenge of increased accuracy and greater variety of recipes.

Enhanced accuracy continuous line for liquid nutritionals with particulates

Enhanced Accuracy Continuous Line for Liquid Nutritionals with Particulates

This line is suitable for formulations with viscosities above 2000cP and also particulates. The batch mixers can high shear to ensure homogeneity and fat emulsification and then switch to no shear to blend in particles gently.

The heat exchanger is an indirect type, which is more suitable for the highest viscosities and is also required for particulate formulations. Note that the filling machine has limited capabilities when it comes to high viscous and particulate formulations. A high viscous kit is in any case necessary.

Line Solution Key Enabler: High Shear Mixer - The New Generation

Tetra pak high shear mixer r370-1000D

Tetra Pak® High Shear Mixer R370-1000D

Agile and cost-efficient to meet your needs today and the future


This mixer cuts operational costs significantly to achieve lowest TCO in the industry with the highest flexibility. Secure consistent product quality and food safety with reliable mixing solutions with full support from a knowledgeable partner.


Unparalleled ingredient mixing performance and lower operating costs, a new design that produces finer, more consistent and more stable emulsions.


Capacity: Up to 30,000 l/hr


Applications: Perfect for all kinds of mayonnaise, cold emulsion sauces, dips, beverage concentrates, ice cream mixes, infant formulas, dairy desserts and more.

Features

•  New smart vacuum deaerator design which removes air since air bubbles expand in size in a vacuum while bubble density is decreased. This allows air bubbles to rise to the surface and be removed more quickly. Accurate control allows you to optimize deaeration conditions and minimise foam formation


•  New mixing head delivers consistent high quality with 15 hits in a single pass; creating a finer, more stable emulsion that prevents separation and sedimentation due to small droplet size – down to 1 micron
•  Patented balanced rotor/stator system with 3 or 5 stages allows you to operate at very high speeds with very narrow tolerances up to 100,000 s-1 shear with adjustable shear and variable speed
•  Patented vibrating powder hopper compacts powder ingredients to remove air whilst the patent-pending switch injector lets you add powder without vacuum for flexible placement
•  Unique twin-screw pump with independent control with pump inlet integrated to vacuum deaerator to optimize suction conditions. Ability to handle viscosities from 0 to 2,000 cP and up to 6 bar back pressure. Enables variable flow from 10-60 cubic metres/hr and runs well even at low flow rate and also allows you to place powder handling up to 10 metres from mixer

Line Solution Key Enabler: Aldose

Aldose aseptic dosing unit e

Tetra Pak® Aseptic Dosing unit E

Unit for cost efficient automatic in-line aseptic dosing of added ingredients to an aseptic product.


Aseptic dosing of true solutions and suspensions containing particles smaller than 0.22microns into aseptic systems. The ​Tetra Pak® Aseptic Dosing unit E can also be used to achieve a sweeter taste in unsweetened milk products. The Tetra Pak® Aseptic Dosing unit E is fully automatic and can serve one or several fillers as well as an aseptic tank.


Capacity: Dosing range 5 – 150 l/h


Applications: Enzymes such as lactase, vitamins, flavours, colours, salt, rennet, i.e. products not suitable for sterilisation by heat.

Aldose aseptic dosing unit e

Features

•  Ingredients are aseptically treated prior to dosing where heat isn’t required. Cost ingredients maintain their original properties which means smaller quantities of the ingredients are needed to get the same result – providing for ingredient savings


•  Tetra Pak's aseptic dosing specialists can help you evaluate the suitability of ingredients (type and quality) and provide guidelines regarding the correct filter for each application. At certain Tetra Pak Product Development Centres, a Tetra Pak® Aseptic Dosing unit E is installed for product trials.
•  A self-supervising system controls the pressure and temperature of the filters in order to safeguard aseptic conditions (and filter running time). It is equipped with a monitoring system to ensure that the sterile filter is intact after the sterilization phase and ready for production.
