APV Pilot 4T Homogeniser
SPX FLOW
Easy breakable PET multipacks
IMA DAIRY & FOOD offers new tools
SPX FLOW unveiled a new APV Pilot 4T Homogeniser to
help customers test recipes with a new level of versatility
in a compact unit. IFF began testing the compact homogeniser
late last year to develop recipes for food and beverages,
including dairy products and plant-based food, such
as peas and oats, said Erik Krabsen, Group Manager Pilot
Plant Dairy and Beverages. The abrasive particles on those
recipes can cause heavy wear on the homogenisers, but
the new machine is durable and requires less maintenance.
“We need a homogeniser that’s reliable, flexible and must
guarantee scalability to large production,” Krabsen said.
“The 4T’s control system with variable speed drive makes
made it very easy to control the flow rate accurately. It’s
also quieter than other homogenisers and it takes up less
space.”
Other features of the new homogeniser include:
• Flexible capacities that can be easily adjusted for flow
and pressure because of integrated variable speed drive
and controls.
• Easy ways for operators to meet batch capability needs.
Options vary from manual to fully automatic touchscreen
PLC control that can link to plant control systems for
remote operation.
• Compact modular construction options that can be easily
added as market needs change.
• Plug-and-play technology that saves time and money
because of the integrated controls and variable speed
drive which do not require additional electrical or control
panels.
• A three-plunger design that improves stability for pump,
single- or two-stage homogenization.
With the patented tools of the ZERO Technology range IMA
DAIRY & FOOD offers a solution for the use of mono-materials
such adaptable to its FFS machines. An unique punch
is a technical solution for high-quality cutting and precutting
of PET, PP and PLA and thus enabling easy breakable
multipacks. The cup can get a PET lid and label, making the
packaging completely recyclable.
