Sugar grinding Equipment

Grinders use a spinning blade or rotating abrasive elements to reduce the size of various materials. The specifications, RPM and grit of the engineered grinder, will result in various particle sizes. As a result, what you want to make will determine the type of grinder you need. Grinding is used for improving the texture and flow properties of various products and to enhance the flavor of food products such as coffee, spices, sugar, nuts, sesame, poppy seeds, lentils, wheat, and rice. Choosing the right rotational speed, grinding elements, and processing power allow the grinding and shredding of a wide range of materials into coarse or fine powders. Popular types of heavy duty grinders in food processing include angle grinders, bench grinders and meat grinders.

Sugar is the fuel that drives photosynthesis in plants. The leafy organisms constantly convert water and carbon dioxide into glucose. But it takes manufacturers specialized sugar processing technology to extract the sweet crystals from them. Today, most sugar products are derived either from sugarcane or sugar beet.

Basically, to make milk powder, you need to remove the water content from the liquid milk and turn it into powder. How to do it? After pasteurizing and homogenizing the milk, milk’s water content is removed through filtration, evaporation, and drying. You have then to cool and sieve it before filling the containers. Here's how you get milk powder.

Milk powder

Mayonnaise is created by blending oil with eggs, and then flavoring with vinegar, mustard, herbs, and spices. The eggs are a natural emulsifier that creates a uniform mixture. Ingredients are pumped into mayonnaise manufacturing equipment. First, a dynamic mixer maintains the desired level of emulsification of the mixture, which then moves on to packaging and bottling once reaching a satisfactory consistency.

Ketchup processing begins with tons of tomato paste that is mixed and heated together with sugar, vinegar, and spices in a cooking kettle. After cooking, any remaining fibers and particles are filtered out. Once it reaches the right viscosity, your tomato ketchup production process is finished and ready for packaging and transport.

Mpac Group is an industry leader in packaging automation, cartoning, and case-packing technologies.

Its complexity begins with the term itself, which has no clear and precise definition in the industry. As Jan Verweijen and Frank Jeurissen from the Mpac Group explain, the big question is always: is it a sachet or a stick pack?

“What is what” is defined by the way it is sealed, not by its width or length. A stick pack is a product with three seals, one of which is in the middle, lengthwise. Instead, a sachet is a four-sided sealed product with no seal in the middle.

First introduced in Japan in the 70s to pack sugar, these single-use sticks are now used to pack everything you can think of. But what impact does your product have on the cartoning process?


<h2>The first step is to find the right balance.</h2>
Stick packs are first filled vertically; this means that all the product is on the bottom.

Before entering the stick packs into the cartons, you need to evenly divide the product over the left and the right side of the stick packs. This step is called equalization and it is done by horizontally shaking the product to redistribute the contents inside the sticks.

“<em>If the weight is not evenly distributed, all the stick packs will slide off toward one corner of the box leading to an unstable formation that can damage the sticks</em>.” Frank points out.

For mere mortals, powder is powder, but for the experts, coffee powder, for instance, has a different structure than cocoa powder.

“<em>Liquids do not need equalization as the fluids divide automatically.” </em>Jan explains.

In addition, the sticks must have a minimum size, usually around 80 or 90 millimeters, to be cartoned horizontally and the shorter the sticks, the more difficult to keep them stable.
<h2>On edge vs. random orientation - Which side do you stand on?</h2>
Premium single-use products, such as coffee or pharmaceuticals, are often packed with the brand name and description always facing the consumer.

“<em>When this is the case, we use a paddle conveyor that brings each stick pack on a single edge so that when pulled out of the box, the branded face is the first thing the consumer sees,</em>” says Jan.

Frank adds: “<em>In 90 percent of cases, manufacturers choose speed over where the stick pack is facing. With random orientation, you can easily speed up to 900 sticks per minute</em>”.

“<em>Our bomb bay system counts each stick individually and puts them together in the quantity the producer requires; then it drops the sticks into the bucket conveyor</em>.” continues Jan.

To prevent damage, the bomb bay system consists of multiple drop levels, and the sticks need to be always dropped at a limited height - no higher than 250 mm.

As every stick has two ends, cartoning single-serve packs may seem easy, but as Jan and Frank explained, the journey from equalization to orientation and bomb bay dropping is not exactly a piece of cake.

With over one-third of the population consuming it daily in different forms, coffee is one of the most popular processed beverages worldwide. Not only serving as drinks, but coffee is also often regarded as a culture. Coffee manufacturing is a knowledge-intensive industry. Coffee beans from different regions will reveal different tastes, while the level of caffeine could also be different. When it comes to coffee bean processing, the range of roasts varies from light golden brown all the way to dark. The method of tasting coffee differs between countries, habits, and tools.

<span style="font-weight: 400">Spice manufacturing is one of the world's oldest trading products. The word spice refers to any dried part of a plant other than the leaves and is used for seasoning and food coloring. Spices are made from dried barks, roots, berries, and twigs, while green leafy parts of plants are considered herbs. Well-known examples include cinnamon, chilies, star anise, ginger, garlic salt, turmeric, cumin, or pepper, as well as pre-mixed blends such as Masala, Five-Spice Powder, or Old Bay.</span>
