[Case Study] Solving the Challenges of Bridging Issues with Highly Adhesive Food Ingredients

AirSweep solves challenges in food factories with strict hygiene management! Measures against bridging of sticky materials and efficient discharge methods.

AirSweep is very effective for bridge prevention. It resolved the discharge troubles of high-viscosity raw materials that could not be solved by vibrators by separating them like an air knife. 【Challenge】 Bridging of highly adhesive food raw materials occurred, further inducing significant safety risks. In a cheese factory, whey protein concentrate (WPC), which has very high moisture and fat content, was bridging inside the hopper of a bag filter. This trouble not only delayed production but also led to a significant safety risk of the bag filter catching fire due to the solidified material. Many factories use vibrators to address bridging and adhesion issues with highly adhesive raw materials like whey protein. However, vibrations can cause air to escape, leading to compaction of the raw materials, which can actually worsen the bridging. Additionally, in factories producing dairy products like cheese, equipment that meets high hygiene standards certified by organizations such as the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) is required. ・ ・ ・ ▼Please download the materials to see the solution to this challenge.
