Detecting foreign objects and other contaminants in dairy products is perhaps the most crucial part of the production process. Without the ability to effectively scan for adulterants, processors can compromise food safety and risk costly recalls, product waste and damage to their reputations.
When A E Rodda and Son, a Cornwall, U.K.-based creamery, looked for a new depositing machine for its factory, the company's previous success with a MasoSine pump from Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Group (WMFTG) ensured it returned to the same source for a second unit.
Pumps are widely used within dairy processing facilities to transfer liquids, gases and slurries by mechanical action. Valves, meanwhile, control the flow of such products via opening/closing different passageways.
Plants can reduce the waste of expensive hygienic-manufacturing materials by using eccentric disc pumps that offer powerful product-recovery capabilities
Manufacturers of hygienic products can achieve significant and immediate cost savings by improving the volume of premium end-products and materials that are recovered from transfer lines.
