Automatic chemical mixing system for postharvest treatment
In postharvest processes, maintaining consistent chemical treatments is crucial to ensure the quality and longevity of fresh produce. Manual mixing methods can lead to inconsistencies, posing challenges in achieving desired results. Accurate and repeatable chemical mixing is required to optimize treatment effectiveness and ensure food safety.
Ensure accurate and consistent chemical dosing
The PRoDOSE™ System by JBT is an automatic chemical mixing solution designed to dispense precise quantities of postharvest treatment chemicals in nearly any production line. It can mix up to three different treatment chemicals directly into the process supply lines, eliminating the need for large mix tanks and manual handling. The system’s electric servo motors enhance the accuracy and control of the pistons, maintaining mix ratios in tanks or fluid lines. A static mixer ensures chemicals are adequately blended with the fluid medium before returning to the tank or pipeline. With its user-friendly touch screen and easy-to-service components, the PRoDOSE™ System simplifies operation and maintenance. Ideal for industries dealing with fresh produce, the system guarantees accurate and consistent chemical treatments without the need for special tools.
