High-pressure homogenizer for food and pharmaceuticals
Achieve unparalleled consistency and stability in emulsions and dispersions with high-pressure homogenization, ideal for optimizing product quality in demanding applications such as pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.
Processes and Homogenizes Diverse Liquid Products
The HST series of high-pressure homogenizers from HST Maschinenbau GmbH offers robust solutions for liquid product processing, ensuring uniform emulsification, mixing, and homogenization across a range of industries. These homogenizers operate by subjecting pressurized products to turbulent and laminar forces within a narrow ring-shaped gap, effectively breaking down fat globules and agglomerates for enhanced product stability and consistency.
Specifically designed for applications in the food, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and chemicals industries, the HST homogenizers are integral in producing fresh milk, UHT milk, creams, beauty products, and lubricants. The machines are available in various models, such as the HLL0 for laboratory settings to the HL6 for full-scale production, with capacities ranging from 300 to 80,000 liters per hour, depending on the model.
HST homogenizers offer optional aseptic design features, ensuring compatibility with sterile processes, which is essential for products like intravenous emulsions and baby formula. Energy savings are achieved through innovative valve technologies such as the Multigap design that reduces wear and operational costs. Available in multiple materials, including high-strength stainless steels and ceramics, these homogenizers provide excellent corrosion resistance and durability.
With options for ATEX certification and integration into existing production lines through PLC control systems, HST homogenizers support seamless automation and monitoring. Maintenance is simplified with easy-service valve systems and a customizable piston design to minimize downtime and extend the operational life of components.
