Zero

Dead Corners

Seamless stretch-flanged arc joints and mirror-polished interior walls (Ra≤0.4μm) eliminate bacterial film growth.

-80%

Cleaning Labor

Automatic 3-tank CIP station circulates active acid and alkali sanitizers in a closed loop, eliminating pipe teardown.

±0.5°C

Fermentation Precision

PLC-monitored jacketed heating maintains precise 30–50°C environments vital for starter culture propagation.

Issue 01: Quality & Texture

Cream Separation in Bottled Milk

Fat floats to the top of milk bottles or yogurt lacks a smooth, rich mouthfeel due to unrefined fat globules.

Solution: High-Pressure Homogenizer →
Issue 02: Fermentation Fluctuation

Inconsistent Yogurt Batch Quality

Temperature drops during incubation ruin bacterial strain activity, resulting in batch-to-batch taste variations.

Solution: Jacketed Fermentation Tank →
Issue 03: High OpEx & Labor

Hours Wasted on Manual Pipe Washing

Workers spend 2–3 hours manually disassembling stainless steel pipes, risking contamination and downtime.

Solution: 3-Tank Automated CIP Station →

Upgrade specific machinery bottlenecks or integrate individual units into existing process lines with standard Tri-Clamp fittings.

High Pressure Homogenizer
01

High-Pressure Homogenizer

Critical for fluid milk and yogurt texture refinement. Using precision ceramic impact valves and heavy-duty plunger pumps, it shears fat globules below 1μm, completely preventing cream separation while enhancing product viscosity and mouthfeel.

Max Pressure25 MPa (250 Bar)
Motor Rating36kW – 72kW heavy-duty
Valve MaterialStellite / Ceramic Alloy
Yogurt Fermentation Tank

Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) & Value Guide

Evaluating capital expenditure against long-term utility, chemical, and product quality improvements.

1. Homogenization Pressure vs. Product Returns

Inefficient fat breaking leads to product separation in retail bottles, causing high store return rates and brand damage.

Upgrading to high-pressure dual-stage homogenization stabilizes milk fat uniform to 0.7–1.0μm, extending store shelf life by 50% and protecting commercial margins.

2. CIP Chemical & Water Recycling

Manual washing wastes thousands of liters of hot water and raw nitric acid/caustic soda solutions daily.

Our 3-tank CIP system incorporates online conductivity sensors to automatically return reusable chemical fluids back to storage tanks, slashing annual chemical OpEx by >30%.

3. Interoperability with Standard Utility Piping

Replacing an entire process line is costly. NexAgri standalone machinery uses international ISO/DIN standard sanitary Tri-Clamp connections, allowing fast drop-in replacement of failing third-party tanks or homogenizers without re-welding main factory headers.

Technical Frequently Asked Questions

Expert engineering answers regarding machinery sizing and integration.

Why is high-pressure homogenization necessary for fluid milk?
Homogenization forces raw milk through a micro-gap valve at high pressure, breaking fat globules down from 10μm to under 1μm. This stops fat from floating to the top of bottles (cream plug) and guarantees consistent viscosity and taste throughout product shelf-life.
How does an automated CIP system reduce plant OpEx?
Manual cleaning requires workers to open tanks and disassemble pipes, consuming 2–3 hours daily. An automated 3-tank CIP system circulates active acid, alkali, and water rinses automatically at controlled temperatures, cutting labor by 80% and recycling chemical solutions.
Can these standalone units integrate with my existing plant equipment?
Yes. All NexAgri standalone machinery is engineered with industry-standard Tri-Clamp or DIN sanitary connections and open-architecture Siemens/Schneider PLC communication protocols, ensuring seamless piping into existing processing lines.
What steel grade is used for chemical and dairy contact?
All product and chemical contact surfaces are fabricated from food-grade SUS304 or SUS316 stainless steel. Vessel interiors feature mirror polishing (Ra≤0.4μm) to prevent milk stone accumulation and withstand aggressive acid wash cycles.
