Filling lines are used extensively in all industries, such as food, pharmaceutical, chemical, and cosmetics, to accurately package different products into a container suitable for that product. Although the filling process is at the very end of the production line, it is no less important than the earlier steps. Last but not least, the idiom that dates back to 1382 when John Wyclif wrote the firste the laste, and the laste the firste, indicates just that the last things on a list are just as valuable as the previous ones. In this case, this idiom fits perfectly.

Filling

In 2009, billionaire Stanley Ho made the winning bid for a giant white truffle weighing 3.3 pounds during an auction. Price: $330,000. Looking at the price, there's no need to explain why truffles are called the diamonds of the kitchen. After harvesting, they are selected to be sold fresh or processed to make truffle products such as truffle cream. Truffle processing involves cleaning, cutting, grinding, cooking, packaging, and sterilizing.

Accurate fill level inspection for transparent, opaque and foaming liquids, that makes sure the cap is an exact fit.


<h2>Optical precision fill level inspection</h2>
The Newton Optical fill level controller, from Miho performs a precise fill level inspection that is hard to match. This precise level measurement is technically based on a special camera light construction. The images are evaluated by the image-processing system Miho videos that have been designed specifically by Miho Inspection system for inspection tasks.

Cap inspection: The Miho Newton Optic 2 checks that the cap fits exactly. Furthermore, the color and logo can be checked by using an additional camera. This Optical fill level controller is with all its technical ingenuity a very robust and low-maintenance system. Unlike machines that use radiation or X-ray technology, no statutory requirements need to be observed.

For containers that are difficult to see through, such as cans or cartons lined with aluminium, an X-ray inspection can be a good solution when looking for fill level control.


<h2>Fill level inspection for cans, cartons lined with aluminium and foiled containers and bottles</h2>
The Newton X2p from Miho is an X-ray fill level inspection unit that inspects cans, cartons lined with aluminium and foiled containers and bottles. The X-ray fill level controller distinguishes itself by requiring less than a tenth of the average amount usually used during the radioactive inspection for its measurement process.

Its core piece is an X-ray generator, which in contrast to traditional X-ray fill level inspection units only generates X-rays for a short moment during the measurement. The total radiation intensity is, therefore, only a fraction of what is the case with traditional X-ray fill level inspection units. The exact value depends upon the number of containers inspected.

Salad dressing has found its way onto dinner plates for millennia as a quick way to liven up leafy dishes. Experimentation with oil, vinegar, wine, salt, and other ingredients developed into the broad selection of dressings we enjoy today. Through a process of emulsifying the basic formula, adding additional elements, and then bottling and labeling the final mixture, consumers have easy access to reliable tastes on demand.

Frigojollinox is an Italian company specialized in the manufacturing of equipment for the canning, dairy, fishing, confectionary, and cosmetic industries.

Although not as highly regarded as their white or black winter varieties, summer truffles are the absolute first choice in preparing <a href="https://making.com/truffle-cream">truffle cream</a>. When making truffle cream, utmost attention must be paid to the sterilization step. Summer truffles are just as delicate as the more expensive varieties and could be ruined and lose 100% of their flavor if the temperature is too high.
<h2>Pasteurization or sterilization? How much does temperature matter?</h2>
Well, that's basically all that matters. The temperature demanded to destroy pathogenic microorganisms depends on the acidity of the food. High-acid foods, with pH below 4.5 require <a href="https://making.com/equipment/milk-pasteurization-machine">pasteurization</a> temperatures (up to 100 °C) to be considered safe for consumption. Protein-based, low-acid foods such as truffle cream, require <a href="https://making.com/technologies/sterilizing">sterilization</a> temperatures (120 °C – 130 °C) to kill microorganisms quickly. So, we've got a dilemma here. Truffles are heat-sensitive products and could be damaged at such high temperatures, risking losing their aroma completely and even burning. But still, they need to be sterilized to eliminate all microorganisms and spores. So, what to do?

<h2>Zero is the number - sterilize your truffle cream using the F0 value</h2>
The Project Manager at Frigojollinox Maurizio Pettini points out that the standard sterilization temperature is 121°C because 100°C is still insufficient to eliminate all bacteria, especially spores. “<em>However, the actual sterilization begins when the temperature exceeds 100 degrees</em>,” says Pettini.

Every product needs a different sterilization temperature depending on its characteristics. In the case of truffle cream, Pettini explains that the right temperature is between 116-117 °C.

“<em>To get the best result without any damage to the product</em>,” he continues, “<em>equipment must automatically calculate the sterilization temperature based on the F0 value</em>”. The F0 value determines the correct exposure time and temperature to achieve the same lethality (microbial inactivation) of 121 degrees for one minute. In plain English, the F0 algorithm automatically calculates the sterilization time and temperature according to the product to be sterilized, considering both the heating and cooling steps.

Food

Our food chain starts in the soil, growing crops and livestock. But between the fields and the stores, there is a line of industrial food processing equipment. Processes may be as minimalistic as cleaning fruit and as complex as homogenizing milk alternatives made from pressed legumes. In each case, processing technology is an important link in the food production chain.
