In-line blender for carbonated soft drinks
Enhance your beverage production capabilities with a solution that precisely blends and carbonates liquids, ensuring consistent quality while minimizing operational costs through advanced automation and efficient resource use.

Blends and Carbonates Beverages Efficiently
The Tetra Pak® In-line Blender B with Carbonation is engineered for beverage manufacturers seeking efficient and precise carbonation in their production lines. This equipment excels in blending and carbonating soft drinks and flavored waters, handling capacities between 18,000 l/h to 75,000 l/h, with lower capacities available on request. Its fully automated operation guarantees consistent product quality and safety, minimizing human intervention and ensuring seamless integration into your production process.
Utilizing a packed bed deaerator and an eco vacuum pump, the In-line Blender B reduces oxygen levels to 0.5 ppm while cutting water use to just 600 l/h, supporting sustainable operations. The system allows up to 10 ingredient streams, accommodating versatile recipe configurations, from standard to minimal dosing and varying ingredient viscosities, including alcoholic components. The included pressurized tank maintains carbonation levels by keeping the product under high pressure, serving as a buffer during filling machine downtimes.
Incorporating Automatic Mass Compensation software, the blender precisely controls ingredient ratios by checking Brix levels multiple times per second. This ensures the final product meets exact specifications, essential for achieving your desired taste profiles and carbonation consistency across different beverage types. Additionally, the equipment is designed for easy cleaning and maintenance, promoting operational uptime and hygiene standards.
