Food pumps
Know more

Food pumps:

Food pumps are pumps designed in accordance with EU regulations, which make them suitable for use in the food industry.

The special features of food pumps are:

  • Roughness of internal surfaces <0.8 µm, in special cases 0.4 µm
  • Applied mechanical seals (internal and external) are made in such a way as to ensure hygiene in the process and cleaning of the pump in the CIP system
  • The design of the pumps eliminates the possibility of the formation of dead zones – nooks and crannies with complicated access to detergents.
  • The casings of the new pumps are made using cold stamping technology from 6.0 mm thick sheets, which guarantees the stability of the pump under changing load conditions and affects the strength of mechanical seals.
  • Appropriate selection of materials for welded joints made in a shell of neutral gases and ongoing processing of permanent joints eliminate the formation of a potential difference at the boundary of materials.
  • Pump rotors – in most models (except the GA pump) are made in an open design, cast from chromium-
    nickel cast steel in a method that allows finishing processes to achieve the declared roughness. All
    impellers are statically balanced, which increases pump durability.

Process nozzles

Hygienic fittings are standard, providing both easy installation of the pump in the system and a safe connection according to the DIN standard.

On request, the pumps can be equipped with nozzles according to SMS, Tri-Clamp or flange connections according to DIN.

Engines

Two-pole electric motors powered by 50 Hz alternating current are standard in pumps.

The motors have bearings that level the axial movement of the shaft and a special tip of the motor shaft made of acid-resistant steel, which is also the pump shaft.

All motors installed in the pumps meet the requirements for operation in an environment with high humidity, resistant to splashes when washing equipment from the outside.

In addition, each pump has a specially designed motor guard, which is its additional protection.

              The special features indicated by food pumps contribute to:

  • Pumped materials do not lose their structure and properties.
  • Pumps used in CIP, SIP systems give the absolute best results.

 

Application of food pumps:

  • Bakery and confectionery industry
  • Dairy industry, ice cream production
  • Meat industry – supply of blood, brines and liquids
  • Brewing
  • Processing of vegetables and fruits – production of jams and marmalades
  • Production of beverages, juices, syrups, concentrates, sugar dissolution
  • Distillation, production of wine, alcohol, alcoholic beverages
  • Yeast production pharmaceutical industry
  • Water, hot water, chilled water
  • Fluid Injection in CIP Washers
  • Other substances of low viscosity

Sparnuotės siurbliai

Sparnuotės roto dinamiškas siurblys – įrenginys, kuriame besisukantis rotorius perkelia į skystį gaunamą energiją, sukeliant skysčio impulso didinimą ir pakilimą (slėgio pakilimas, sukeliantis  šiuo reiškiniu siurblio  įėjimo angoje medžiagų įsiurbimą).

Sparnuotės siurbliai  skiriasi nuo tūrinių siurblių tuo , kad tūrinis siurblys pompuoja su  slėgiu,  kurį leidžia   pavaros dydis – su beveik nepakitusiu našumu; sparnuotės siurblys pompuoja  našumu, kuriuo leidžia  pavaros dydis – su mažėjančiu aukščio  pakilimu.

Siurblio našumas  [Q]

Tai  siurbiamo skysčio  tūris per laiko vienetą. Kaip taisyklė siurblio našumas  išreikštas m³ / val arba                l / min

Pakilimo aukštis  [H]

Tai charakterizuojantis sparnuotės siurblius parametras –pakeičiantis skysčio greičio  energiją į padėties energiją , t.y. aukštį ir išreikštą vandens stulpo [mH2O] metrais.

Galios poreikis  [P]

Tai siurbliu darbo metu sunaudojama galia.

Sukimosi greitis [N]

Siurblio veleno  apsisukimų skaičius per  vieną  minutę  [aps./min.]

Siurblio patikimumas [η]

Santykis  tarp naudingos siurblio galios ir suvartojamos siurblio  veleno  galios  išreiškiamas procentais [%]. Kai siurblys turi didelį  našumą, tai jo naudingumo koeficientas  yra didesnės vertės negu  mažo našumo  siurblys.

Siurbimo pajegumai

Sparnuotės siurbliai turi atvirą konstrukciją – sukantys  siurblių dalys  nesiliečia vienas su kitu – tai palengvina  siurblio  priežiūrą,  bet neleidžia siurbliui  įsisiurbti skystį .

Sparnuotės  siurbliai turi būti sumontuoti  taip, kad dirbtų su įplaukiančia medžiaga (siurblio antvamzdis turi būti žemiau įsiurbiamo skysčio veidrodėlio).

Pasirenkant siurblį reikia atkreipti dėmesį į tai, kad jis dirbs su tokiu našumu,  su kuriuo  leis jo spaudimas slėgio vamzdyne. Labai gerai, kai siurblio darbo taškas (Q,H) atitinka maksimaliam naudingumo siurblio koeficientui. Viršijus darbo našumo reikšmei, padidėja siurblio galios poreikis ir gali pasireikšti kavitacijos reiškinys siurblio įsiurbimo zonoje ir siurblio viduje.

Sumažinus našumą iki nulio, pvz.,  didėjantis  pasipriešinimas iš įsiurbimo pusės gali iššaukti  skysčio  kaitinimo reiškinį  siurblio viduje.

Sunkiųjų skysčių pompavimas

Pompuojant  didesnio  lyginamojo svorio skysčius,  siurblio pakėlimo aukštis nemažėja,   padidėja tik siurblio elektros energijos sunaudojimas dėl padidėjusio  slėgio , veikiančio siurblio  sparnuotę.

Tačiau labai dažnai nutinka,  kad didelio  lyginamojo svorio skysčiai tuo pat metu pasižymi  klampumo padidėjimu.

Klampiųjų skysčių pompavimas

Didesnio klampumo skysčių pompavimas turi įtakos siurblio darbui. Mažėja jo našumas (Q) ir pakilimo aukštis (H); žymiai didėja siurblio sunaudojamos  el. galios (P) poreikis dėl padidėjusio vidinės skysčio trinties, sparnuotės darbaračio ir vidinių siurblio elementų pasipriešinimo.

Didesnio klampumo skysčių pompavimas   su pilnu siurblio uždroselinimu  skysčio  pakilimo aukštį  priartina prie   vandens  pakilimo aukščio.  Pompuojamo skysčio našumo didinimas sumažina medžiagų pakilimo aukštį.

Know more

Chiller (Water-cooling machine) – a device for cooling liquid using a vapor-compression or absorption refrigeration cycle.


Equipment After cooling in the chiller, the liquid can be supplied to heat exchangers to cool air or various process masses in food production, or to remove heat from equipment.

The chiller circuit always includes such basic elements as a compressor, evaporator, condenser and expansion device.

The principle of operation of the system is based on the absorption and release of thermal energy due to a change in the state of aggregation of the refrigerant depending on the pressure acting on it.
In order to choose the right chiller, you should always contact specialists who have a good idea of ​​what kind of design scheme to offer for each specific case, because despite the general principle of operation, each element of the installation plays a very important role in the functionality of the system as a whole.or mixing various components.

Cooling tunnels

The cooling (refrigeration) tunnel is popular in the food industry and ensures the best product quality. Serves for cooling/after-cooling of the product, as well as for its transportation according to the technological chain of production of high-quality products while maintaining
the set temperature.
Purpose:

cooling and hardening of chocolate or other glaze on confectionery and semi-finished products (sweets, marshmallows, marmalade, biscuits, cookies, waffles), as well as shock freezing of fruits, vegetables, berries, meatballs, dumplings and other semi-finished products.

How it works:

The products enter the conveyor belt, after which they are transferred to the cooling tunnel, where they are cooled in a closed space by circulating cold air. Passing through the tunnel, the products are cooled to a predetermined temperature. Further, the finished products are taken out by the conveyor belt from the working area of ​​the tunnel and leave the belt.

The cooling tunnel consists of tunnel-type cooling sections, includes a welded frame made of stainless steel. steel on which air coolers are mounted. The number of sections depends on the required cooling capacity and cooling capacity, as well as on the required length.
Conveyor belt width 400, 600, 800, 1000 and 1200 mm.
The conveyor is equipped with a drive and tension station, a drive with a motor-reducer.

The conveyor belt is blue or white.

The control panel has a frequency converter. The START, STOP buttons and the conveyor speed control button allow the operator to easily control the process.
The temperature inside the cooling conveyor is regulated and controlled by the control unit, it is possible to regulate the temperature and operating parameters in each section separately.
As an insulating material, sandwich panels are used, which have reliable thermal insulation and high strength.

The refrigeration unit can be equipped with compressors from well-known world manufacturers such as FRASCOLD, BIZER, DORIN, BOCK, COPELAND. It is possible to install the unit both in the workshop and on the street. The air condenser is located outdoors, which
allows you to lower temperature indoors.

Equipment for mixing various components
Know more

Equipment for mixing various components

Purpose:

Equipment (food mixers) for mixing bulk, liquid and viscous components, incl. h. vacuum, mixers for moving dry bulk food products are divided into rotating and transporting.
Rotary mixers include drum mixers of various types, conical mixers, rotary pot mixers, etc.
Conveying mixers for dry bulk products include belt, paddle and screw mixers, V – obazny, such as “drunken barrel”, plow-shaped. The working bodies of transport mixers can be screws, including belt screws, or blades mounted on a shaft.

Drum mixers

The mixed material moves along the inner surface of the drum. When moving inside the drum, the material meets on its way the blades fixed inside the mixer hopper, rising to a certain height, the product is poured from top to bottom. Thus, an intensive circulation of bulk material is created inside the drum, which contributes to its rapid and thorough mixing. The mixture is unloaded through the loading hatch of the drum.

Homogenizers are designed for homogenization (grinding, mixing, emulsification, uniform distribution of components throughout the volume) of easy-flowing, as well as viscous and thick emulsions, in order to obtain highly dispersed and stable multicomponent compositions from difficult-to-mix liquids. Homogenizers can be in t. h. and multi-stage in horizontal or vertical design, separately installed and submersible.

Submersible mixers.

The advantage of a submersible homogenizer is the absence of mechanical seals, binding pipelines, which allows them to be used at higher temperatures, in aggressive environments, to place the homogenizer in containers of different volumes, the use of one homogenizer for several containers, alternately.

 Vacuum mixer-homogenizers  – a vacuum reactor with a stirrer, to which a homogenizer is connected for recirculation. After loading the main components into the reactor vessel, air is pumped out of the system, and the installation is switched on to the recirculation mode, during which the loaded components are crushed and mixed. The funnel which is built in system allows to load additional necessary components in the course of homogenization (under vacuum).

Ribbon mixers – Mixing is carried out by ribbon spirals, which not only mix, but also move the mixed material. In continuous mixers, the blades are fixed on the shaft along a helical line, which ensures simultaneous mixing and movement of the product along the shaft. Mixers can be either single or double or more, as well as equidirectional.

Paddle mixers – These are mixers with the highest level of mixing uniformity t . To . Equal-
speed movement of the mixing body is used with a close fit of the edges of the mixing blades to
the walls of the mixer, in contrast to horizontal and vertical screw mixers. The design of the
blades can be selected at the request of the customer.

Plow mixers – The most effective type of mixers, in which the working body is plow-shaped blades mounted on a shaft. They are used in technologies requiring additional grinding of components. These mixers consume more energy and create significant air currents, which
require the use of additional peripheral equipment to prevent product loss through gaps. However, such mixers can be operated at different filling levels and the mixing process takes a very short time.

Screw mixers – can be batch or continuous. The working body is a screw. The main advantage is the gentle movement of the product without disturbing the integrity of the structure of the pieces. Conveyors of this design are characterized by sufficiently high performance. The product is loaded through the feed opening , is picked up by the auger blades and mixed to the discharge opening . The movement can be made both horizontally and at an angle to the surface.

The conical vertical screw mixer – is a single-walled conical hermetic tank with a double screw mixer. The screw agitator consists of a small internal screw and a large external screw having the form of a cone-shaped spiral. The agitator rests on a removable, through the flange, bearing support with stuffing box packing. Unloading occurs through a sliding gate valve with a manual drive through a gearbox.

Centrifugal mixers –  The mixed material moves along the inner surface of the mixer cone from below along the radial generatrix under the action of centrifugal forces of inertia. When moving inside the cone, the material encounters on its way the blades fixed inside the mixer hopper. Thus, an intensive circulation of bulk material is created inside the mixer, contributing to its rapid and thorough mixing.

V-type mixer for powder products – V-type powder mixer, 100% mixing powder product, high efficiency feature, made of stainless steel. Product loading can be done manually or by vacuum suction.

Cardbox washing mashines
Know more

We offer new and refurbished equipment for washing containers for the bakery, confectionery industries, for the processing of milk, meat, chicken, fish, etc.
The main task of washing equipment is to completely remove all dirt and impurities from the surface of the container.
The following types of washing machines are popular in the food industry:
• for washing boxes and similar containers
• for washing euro pallets
• for washing 200 and 400 liter trolleys
• for washing inventory and small equipment

Washing machines are of two types:
• chamber type
• tunnel type

In a chamber-type container washer, a container or trolley is mounted on a rotating platform. The nozzles are located on the walls of the chamber so that the water flow covers the entire surface of the trolley.

Modern tunnel washing containers are complex multi-purpose systems that include a variety of equipment: a circulation pump or several pumps at once, control and accounting devices, automatic dosing of detergents, devices for regime installations, their control, accounting and
maintaining all these parameters during the washing process.

Modern tunnel washing containers are designed to achieve the best results when washing and drying plastic, wooden or metal crates, carts and containers, using water and detergents.

 

In tunnel-type washing machines, containers move on a chain conveyor, passing through several functional zones during the working cycle. The speed of the conveyor is regulated on a common control panel.

Functional areas:
        1. In the main washing area, the container is washed with warm (up to 60 ° C) water using a detergent solution.
          Numerous jets from spray nozzles under pressure wash the container with water or washing solution. The pressure is maintained by a water pump included in the design, which is powered from the main tank. The machine is equipped with a closed water circuit, which helps to save expensive water.

  1. In the rinsing zone, with clean water, detergent residues are washed off the surface of the container. Constantly there is a renewal of water due to its overflow into the main tank.
  2. The drying zone is not equipped on all washing tunnels. Some technological processes in food production require that the container at the outlet after passing through the washing machine be completely dry. In the drying zone, air knives are installed, the air to which is supplied from air blowers. The air flow removes moisture droplets and makes it completely dry.
