Infusion Uht system for dairy and plant-based beverages
Efficiently extend the shelf life of dairy and plant-based beverages while maintaining taste and nutritional integrity with rapid heating and cooling infusion technology.

Processes and Infuses Beverages at Ultra High Temperatures
The Infusion UHT Express Systems from SPX FLOW provide a comprehensive solution for ultra-high-temperature processing in the dairy and plant-based beverage industries. Utilizing precise infusion technology, these systems deliver gentle, rapid heating and cooling with accurate holding times, preserving product quality and minimizing chemical changes. The system processes a variety of liquids, including whole and skimmed ESL milk, flavored milks, cream derivatives, and a range of plant-based drinks like soy, almond, and oat milk.
Capable of handling continuous, automated operations, the system features a synchronized flow of product, steam, air, and condensate, ensuring optimum heat transfer. It boasts a low fouling rate, which extends operating times between clean-in-place (CIP) cycles. Integration is seamless, with all units pre-assembled and factory-tested for fast installation.
The Infusion UHT Express Systems offer a production capacity ranging from 7,000 to 22,000 liters per hour, with energy recovery options reducing operational costs. Equipped with PLC systems, these machines enable efficient process monitoring and control. Designed for compliance with stringent food safety standards, they achieve high bacteria spore kill rates. SPX FLOW also provides global delivery of genuine spare parts, along with customized service and maintenance agreements, ensuring sustained performance and reliability.
