Agitating batch retort for food sterilization
In the production of shelf-stable foods like ready meals or baby food, precise sterilization is crucial. Inconsistent temperatures and inefficient use of steam or water can lead to product spoilage and increased operational costs.
Optimize heat distribution and reduce process time
The SuperAgi™ by JBT is an agitating batch retort designed for sterilizing a wide range of container types, including rigid, semi-rigid, and flexible options. The equipment features a patented rotary water coupling and spray-pipes integrated into a lightweight drum to ensure efficient heat distribution and reduced process time. With a vessel measuring 1,500 mm and minimal differences in F0 values, it delivers precise temperature and pressure control, making it suitable for products like ready meals, baby food, and soups. High-quality design and construction enhance durability, while micro cooling ensures reproducible execution of pre-programmed recipes. The smaller vessel diameter and narrower void areas save on steam, compressed air, and cooling water.
