Aseptic dosing system for heat-sensitive ingredients
When producing beverages or dairy products with delicate additives, maintaining the efficacy and stability of these functional ingredients is crucial. High heat during the production process can compromise their effectiveness, presenting a significant challenge for manufacturers aiming to preserve product quality.
Ensures precise and stable ingredient dosing
The Tetra Pak® Aseptic Dosing unit F is an advanced system designed to inject functional ingredients such as enzymes, vitamins, flavors, and probiotics into the base product after final heat treatment, just before filling. This high-precision, fully automated dosing unit is positioned between processing and filling machines, ensuring minimal ingredient wastage and consistent product quality. Suitable for a wide dosing range from 0.5 to 30 liters per hour, this unit can handle product volumes ranging from 1,000 to 20,000 liters per hour. Its high accuracy is achieved through a combination of weighing systems and flow transmitters, while multiple hose diameters are used to match specific recipes. Tetra Pak’s recipe management system enhances food safety by providing traceability and ensuring correct ingredient use. Ideal for applications in dairy, beverages, and other food products, this system reduces the need for cleaning between production runs, thereby saving time and reducing resource consumption.
