Microfiltration system for fruit juice and soft drinks

Ensure optimal purity and flavor retention in your beverages with a robust microfiltration system designed to seamlessly integrate into your production line, offering efficient particle removal and product recovery.

Filters and Clarifies Liquid Beverages

Blendtech’s microfiltration system, engineered by TMCI Padovan, is designed to meet the stringent hygiene standards of the food and beverage industry. It features AISI 316 stainless steel construction, ensuring durability and corrosion resistance. The system operates with 1 or 2-stage filtration lines, offering continuous operation by allowing filtration in one chamber while the other undergoes cleaning. It supports applications like fruit juices, nectars, soft drinks, and syrups, ensuring product clarity and microbial safety.

With a throughput ranging from 10 to 500 hl/h, this system accommodates both automatic and manual operations, controlled via a PLC with a user-friendly touchscreen interface for seamless integration into existing production lines. The use of mix-proof valves prevents cross-contamination during process transitions, while a dedicated washing circuit ensures complete sanitization. Additionally, it offers automatic filter changes, minimizing the need for manual intervention and ensuring consistent efficiency. This system is ideal for juice producers and beverage manufacturers requiring reliable filtration solutions with minimal energy consumption.

Benefits

  • Enhances product quality and safety through reliable particulate and bacteria removal.
  • Minimizes downtime with dual-chamber operation, allowing simultaneous filtration and cleaning.
  • Reduces labor costs with automated filter change and PLC-controlled processes.
  • Ensures long-lasting performance with corrosion-resistant AISI 316 stainless steel construction.
