In-line gassing system for powder processing

Optimize shelf life and quality of your powdered products by effectively reducing residual oxygen levels with this integrated in-line gassing solution, ensuring each package maintains freshness and safety through precise gas control.

Reduces Residual Oxygen in Powder Products

The In-Line Gassing System from PLF International is engineered for precise oxygen reduction in powder processing, essential for extending product shelf life. This system stands out for its comprehensive safety features, utilizing gas analyzers across all areas to ensure safe operations. By integrating seamlessly into existing production lines, it conserves floor space and reduces capital expenditure, as it eliminates the need for additional clinching equipment typically required by post-gassing systems. Ideal for food and pharmaceutical sectors, it efficiently processes a variety of end-products such as infant formula and protein shake mixes. The system’s continuous, in-line operation ensures consistent throughput while minimizing gas consumption. Customization options, like a glove box feature for operator intervention and a sealed reject system, further enhance operational flexibility. Built with stainless steel, it is designed to handle rigorous demands while maintaining compliance with industry standards.
