GEA, Gerstenberg ... P-3-55-80, Perfector 1+1x12... Production lines

Complete industrial margarine production line with a nominal production capacity of approximately 1.500 kg of table margarine per hour with a work product pressure up to 120 bar. The processing tanks and process design is made by GEA. The High Pressure Pump, Crystalliser and Pin Rotors are made by Gerstenberg Schröder / SPX - Perfector. The consumer packaging machine is made by Oystar Benhil Ecopack. The entire line is still installed in its original position at the factory in India, offering an excellent opportunity for inspection and evaluation in its existing production environment., Fat spreads consist of two primary phases: a water phase and a fat phase. They are therefore classified as water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions, in which the water phase is finely dispersed in the form of small droplets throughout the continuous fat phase. Depending on the intended application and required product characteristics, the composition of the fat phase and the manufacturing process are selected accordingly. Factors such as the desired texture, spreadability, melting properties and product stability determine the formulation and processing conditions., In addition to the crystallization equipment, the modern fat spread production facility comprises a range of process and storage equipment. This includes dedicated tanks for the storage of oils and fats, as well as separate systems for the preparation of the emulsifier phase, water phase and final emulsion. The production facility is further equipped with a pasteurization unit to ensure microbiological safety and product stability, together with a remelting system where required for controlled processing and product conditioning., The complete manufacturing process for margarine, fat spreads and related products can be divided into the following main sub-processes:, - Reception and storage of oils and fats., - Preparation of the fat phase, emulsifiers and water phase., - Pasteurization., - Emulsion preparation., - Chilling, crystallization and resting of the product., - Final consumer product packaging., The complete installation consists of the following machines and equipment:, A) Oil Storage silos, - 2x Oil storage tanks for the reception of the edible oil which is used in the production process., Manufacturer: GEA, Volume: 20.000 liter each, Year: 2011, Serial numbers: M2T01 / M2T02, The tank is made of stainless steel 316. Single jacketed. Agitator designed to keep the product in continuous motion and prevent settling. Inspection lid on top of the tank, allowing access for visual inspection of the product inside. Spraybowls for cleaning., - All pumps / interconnecting piping / valves for receive and sending out of the edible oil., B) Fat phase preparation, - 1x Fat phase preparation tank, Manufacturer: GEA, Volume: 200 liter, Year: 2011, Serial number: M3T01, The tank is made of stainless steel 316. Single jacketed. Agitator designed to keep the product in continuous motion and prevent settling. Inspection lid on top of the tank, allowing access for visual inspection of the product inside., - Duplex strainer for 2.000 ltr/h., - Set of control valves., C) Water phase preparation, - 1x Water phase preparation tank, Manufacturer: GEA, Volume: 1.500 liter, Year: 2011, Serial number: M4T01, The tank is made of stainless steel 316. Single jacketed. Agitator designed to keep the product in continuous motion and prevent settling. Inspection lid on top of the tank, allowing access for visual inspection of the product inside. The tank is mounted on loadcells for exact weighing of the product inside the tank., - Water phase recirculation / transfer centrifugal pump, 5.000 ltr/h., - Plate heat exchanger of 5.000 ltr/h., D) Powder adding system, - Turbo blender, manufacturer JEC, 500 kg/h., - Duplex strainer for 5.000 ltr/h, E) Pasteurisation unit, - Pasteurization unit to ensure microbiological safety and product stability., Skidmounted pasteurizer on a stainless steel frame with a plate heat exchanger (GEA Ecoflex, NT50T-75PL, year 2011, serial nr IN-110/80468, capacity 2.500 ltr/h, 4-sections), pumps, holding tube, hotwater set with expansion vat, all control valves and interconnecting piping., - Control valves., F) Emulsion preparation, - 2x Emulsion preparation tanks, To prepare and mix the liquid emulsion before it enters the cooling and crystallization section of a margarine production line. Inside the emulsion preparation tank, these fatt and water phases are mixed under controlled conditions to produce a stable water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion. The small droplets of the water phase are distributed uniformly throughout the continuous fat phase., Manufacturer: GEA, Volume: 1.500 liter each, Year: 2011, Serial numbers: M5T01 / M5T02, The tanks are made of stainless steel 316. Double jacketed so the product can be heated/cooled/keep at temperature. Agitator designed to mix. Inspection lid on top of the tank, allowing access for visual inspection of the product inside.
