Laboratory pilot sterilizers for food packaging

Sterilizes and Heat Treats Diverse Products

The Microflow Laboratory Pilot Sterilizer from Steriflow is an engineered-to-order autoclave designed for precise and flexible sterilization across food, pharmaceutical, and pet food sectors. It facilitates research and development through its ability to simulate industrial processes, accommodating various packaging forms such as cans, jars, and pouches.

Its operation employs both agitation and rotation, with the Dali model offering horizontal agitation for sensitive products and the rotary model enhancing heat transfer through continuous rotation. This ensures homogenized heat distribution and reproducibility of sterilization cycles. Featuring a fully automatic MPI Expert control system, it independently manages counter pressure to refine cycle accuracy, while variable rotation speeds minimize process time.

Integrating seamlessly into R&D labs, the Microflow is constructed from stainless steel for robust performance and minimal maintenance. It supports multiple processing methods—Water Cascading, Air/Steam, Spray, and Immersion—allowing versatility in product testing. Ideal for pilot setups, it accommodates up to two baskets with a diameter of 900mm, effectively managing both liquid and solid food products. This sterilizer streamlines product testing, contributing to enhanced energy management and operational efficiency in batch processes.
