Mixing Skid

Objective: To design and manufacture a mixing system to allow users to successfully produce batches of handwash into an IBC.

We specialise in creating custom mixing systems tailored to your needs, offering comprehensive services from consultation and design to manufacturing. The images displayed showcase a bespoke mixing system delivered to a prestigious client in the chemical industry for producing handwash. This system was designed and manufactured in-house to meet the clients specific requirements.

Controlled via a siemens PLC control panel, the system features two hoppers for adding the necessary  ingredients. Once added, the mixer initiates the mixing process, and the final product is deposited into an Intermediate Bulk Container (IBC).

Garlic Pumping System

Objective: To design and manufacture a mobile pumping system which can hold, maintain temperature and deliver product to the injection stations so that the product can be deposited into the garlic bread.

This system was supplied to our clients in the food industry. The butter pumping system is meticulously designed, for the mobile platform to the bespoke jacketed tank with a custom flange to suit the pump inlet. The ellipsoidal tank inlet is crafted to prevent butter from solidifying, which can cause bridging problems and cavitation.

In operation, butter is deposited into the vessel and the system is managed via a PLC sequence, allowing the pump to switch between production mode and CIP (cleaning in place). Operators can easily monitor the product temperature through the display located on the control panel. The jacketed tank , equipped with a temperature control unit housed in an enclosed cabinet , maintains the product at the desired temperature.

For added practicality, a custom pump guard was created to prevent splashes, and a push handle was included for ease of use.

In-house testing facility

The purpose of our in-house testing facility is to rigorously evaluate pumps, including centrifugal , lobe, peristaltic and more, when they come for service. This facility ensures that every pump we service meets the highest standards of performance & reliability.

Having an in-house testing facility offers several key benefits:

• Quality Assurance : We can thoroughly test each pump to ensure it performs optimally before it is returned to the customer.
• Reduced downtime: Quick and efficient testing allows us to identify and address issues promptly, minimising downtime for your operations.
• Enhanced reliability: Regular testing and maintenance ensures that your pumps remain reliable and efficient, reducing the risk of unexpected failures.
• Customised solutions: We can offer tailor testing procedures to meet the specific requirements of different pump types and applications.
• Cost Savings: By identifying potential issues early, we can prevent more extensive and costly repairs down the line.

Our commitment to maintaining an advanced in-house testing facility underscores our dedication to providing top-notch service and ensuring the longevity and efficiency of your equipment.

CIP System

Objective: To efficiently clean tanks after brewing a manual CIP SYSTEM

The CIP (Clean-in-Place) system comprises various cleaning equipment and processes designed to achieve a high level of hygiene and disinfection for equipment, tools, and surfaces used in the food, cosmetic, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries. This automated system has been supplied to our customer in the food industry, where the system would be used to clean tanks containing various additives.

Biofilms are layers of proteins that form and cover microbes in extensive industrial production circuits with numerous bends, leading to microbiological contamination. If not properly disinfected, this contamination can cause a wide range of problems. Given this risk, investing in innovative CIP cleaning systems is essential, necessary, and profitable for any company involved in the industrial production of products and foods.

Mobile CIP System

Objective: To efficiently clean tanks after brewing a manual CIP SYSTEM

This budget friendly 250L mobile CIP (Clean-in-Place) system has been designed and manufactured for our customer in the brewery industry, designed for flexibility and efficiency. This manual system includes a range of features tailored to meet rigorous cleaning requirements:

1. Twin stainless steel tanks
2. Pre-wash/terminal sterilant tank
3. Hot detergent tank
4. Immersion heating system (Electric, 3-phase, suitable for aggressive detergents)
5. Electronic temperature control
6. Delivery pump
7. Return pump

This robust CIP system ensures thorough cleaning and sterilization of your equipment, with the twin tanks allowing for efficient switching between different cleaning solutions. The immersion heating system, compatible with aggressive detergents, and the electronic temperature control ensure optimal cleaning temperatures are maintained. The delivery and return pumps facilitate smooth and effective circulation of cleaning agents.

Product Recovery System

Objective: To recover more than 95% of the hand wash solution using the product recovery system

We had recently supplied, installed and commissioned a 3” product recovery system for our well-renowned customer in the chemical industry to recover their product which is handwash.

The product recovery consists of a departure station, arrival station, pig with seals and, sensors and actuators. The movement of the pig is dictated by applying air into the line, once the pig has been elevated above the introductory actuator. Doing this would allow the pig from the departure to the arrival station and vice versa.

The quick install and commission resulted to 98% of the product being recovered.

Automated Dosing System

Objective: To manufacture a clarex dosing system based on our client’s design specification

This system is designed to dose a specified amount of Clarex into the main product line. Clarex is a high-performance additive that enhances product quality and efficiency. The customer requested a compact design, resulting in the system’s small footprint.

The system includes a 12L vessel, Coriolis flow meter, and diaphragm dosing pump. The diaphragm dosing pump offers four settings: manual, analogue, impulse, and batch, providing versatility for various applications.

The system can pump as little as 900 ml per hour, and up to 5 litres per hour.

Cream Feeder [progressive cavity] System

Objective: To distribute confectionary cream from a range of viscosities to a co-extrusion die using a progressive cavity pump.

Our cream feeder system is designed to supply a fat based confectionary filling to a co-extrusion die on a cereal extruder. The filling will be poured manually into the jacketed hopper of the pump. The pump will be connected to the co-extrusion die by a 2.5m x 0.75” flexible hose.

The speed of the motor can be adjusted using the potentiometer located on the pump with the maximum frequency being 50Hz. Furthermore, the system is designed with safety procedures in mind, as the pump cannot start unless the outlet valve is open. This is possible with the proximity sensor mounted on the outlet of the butterfly valve.

The system can also aid in maintaining product temperature with assistance of the jacketed hopper.

Automated CIP System

Objective: To supply a pharmaceutical grade CIP system to a leading UK manufacturer of consumer goods.

The following CIP system was designed and supplied to a pharmaceutical company local to us. The following CIP system has similar capabilities to above project as this system is also designed to achieve a high level of hygiene and disinfection for factory equipment such as vessels and more.

We can also offer installation and commissioning on-site which would be beneficial as the time taken to start up the machinery can be significantly reduced.
Our automated CIP (Clean in Place) systems are designed to carry out rigorous hygiene processes.

These processes, within the food, beverage, cosmetic or chemical industry, roll on four very important factors to consider: the mechanical factor, time, temperature, and detergent
