Juice formulation

Juice formulation

The unit is used to mix fruit pulp or concentrates, with other ingredients such as water and sugar, to prepare the desired formula. The group consists essentially of tanks equipped with agitators for receiving and mixing the product. The tanks are positioned on a load cells to allow the correct dosage of the ingredients. Since the system is customized for the customer, it is possible to install a series of additional components according to the need:

  • Drum and bins emptying system
  • Fruit pulp defrost;
  • tubular heat exchanger / plates to recirculate the hot product and facilitate formulation;
  • Triblender for incorporating powders;
  • Automated system with predefined recipes;
  • Automatic water dosing;
  • Independent CIP system or connected to an existing plant;
  • Automated CIP routines;
  • Juice pasteurization system.

The product can be fed from a emptying system or from our fruit pulp defrost. Once preparation and mixing have been carried out, the product will be sent to the next stage of the process. The group is mounted on a metal platform and is controlled by a control panel. The line can be completely automated or manual according to the customer's preference.

Apis Flora - Concentrated Propolis Line

In 2019, we completed the delivery of a concentrated propolis production line through alcoholic extraction and subsequent vacuum evaporation. The process involves the propolis, initially in the form of wax from the apiary, being added to grain alcohol within a process tank specifically designed for this purpose. In the mixing tank, the product is kept constantly stirred, undergoing successive heating and cooling operations over many hours. After this period, the propolis will be diluted. The settled sediment is discarded, and the product is sent to the concentrator for alcohol evaporation and propolis concentration. The concentration pot facilitates vacuum evaporation, and the evaporated alcohol is recovered in an indirect condenser and sent back to the alcohol accumulation tank. The final product is pure and concentrated propolis. All equipment was constructed following safety standards for explosive atmospheres and ATEX certification. Currently, the line is in perfect operation, adding value to our customer.

Demerara – 1000 Multi-fruit line

Between 2020 and 2021, we successfully completed the delivery of a 1000 Multifruit processing line to Demerara, a company located in Guyana. This partnership marked a significant milestone in the regional fruit processing industry and deserves due recognition.
