Dual-line filling machine, ambient distribution
Filling machine for production of high acid ambient still drinks, ambient drinking yoghurt with particles. Shelf life of 2-6 months.
Benefits
Thanks to the introduction of the Tetra Pak® TT/3 UHH filling machine you can now make ambient products in modern, convenient Tetra Top® packages with even greater flexibility and at lower operational costs. This machine brings you extended hygiene for longer shelf life and full food safety. To maximise flexibility and efficiency, it has two separate production lines, capable of filling one or two different products and package formats at the same time. Package volume can be changed in 5 minutes, and you can even rebuild to make different package formats.

Features
Dual-line production
Optimise your machine's capacity
Based on a dual-line architecture, packages can be produced independently on both sides with no need to stop production when cleaning on one side.
Nitrogen dosing
Reduces oxygen content in the packages
Reducing the oxygen content in the head space from 21% to 10%, nitrogen dosing helps retain qualities like flavour, taste and visual appearance and prolongs shelf life.
Injection moulding
Adding a convenient opening
This is the world's fastest injection moulding unit. Polythene is injected at high pressure and compressed onto both sides of the carton sleeve. The unit is sealed and water-cooled to provide a sturdy, leak-proof joint that produces lids of consistent quality. The result is a convenient opening. The lid forming unit for the Tetra Pak® TT/3 UHH filling machine, is supplied with HEPA air to avoid contamination.
Operator interface
Enhanced ease of use
Operator time and complexity is reduced thanks to several smart features. Package Line Monitoring Service (PLMS) enables remote supervision and monitoring of all vital production data. Recipe handling adjusts up to 10 recipes. One operator can easily control features and options via the two Tetra Pak® Operator Panels (TPOP). Line Controller 40 connection enabled.
Process communication via Ethernet enabled.
Application based on Windows 10.
Staircase and large platform
Increased operator safety
In line with the latest OHS regulations, the filling machine has a staircase and a larger platform upon which the operators can safely carry out operations such as cleaning, maintenance etc.
Tetra top® cleaning unit (ttcu)
Improved hygiene
The external Tetra Top® Cleaning Unit offers excellent cleaning and disinfection of your hygiene chamber. You can clean and disinfect both sides simultaneously, or choose to clean and disinfect one side at a time. One unit is able to clean up to two Tetra Pak® TT/3 filling machines.
Hygiene chamber
Supports up to 6 months shelf-life
A vapour consisting of 3% hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is sprayed in to the package, followed by high energy UV-light. The combination of the peroxide pre-treatment, UV-light and the hydrogen peroxide vapour spray ensures a MIBI failure rate of 0,1%.
Material pre-treatment
Supports up to 6 months shelf life
In the Automatic Splicing Unit, packaging material is pre-treated with 3% hydrogen peroxide vapour (H202).
