All documentation flowcharts and software.

Excluding: Chemical dosing system of lye and acid (was centralized) and frame work in front of CIP. The line is still installed in Finland, can be visited on request. Located in Europe.

The Tetra Pak / Alfa-Laval milk reception and processing plant is engineered for high efficiency and reliability in the dairy industry. Designed to handle large volumes of milk and cream, this complete processing solution is equipped with advanced technology and robust components sourced from industry leaders Tetra Pak and Alfa Laval. With a reception capacity of up to 50,000 liters per hour for milk and 30,000 liters per hour for cream, the plant ensures seamless operations through its dual reception stations. Each station is meticulously designed with five hoses for truck connections, along with essential features such as air eliminators, flow transmitters, and temperature transmitters, ensuring optimal quality control during the reception process. The inclusion of centrifugal and lobe rotor pumps facilitates efficient transfer of milk and cream, while the skid-mounted design simplifies installation and maintenance, making it an ideal choice for modern dairy facilities.

The processing area is further enhanced by a fully automated milk sampling station, which guarantees consistent quality monitoring. The plant's sophisticated valve manifolds allow for flexible distribution of raw milk and cream across six storage tanks, while also enabling the distribution of pasteurized skim milk. The unique mix-proof design of the Tetra Pak valves ensures that cross-contamination is avoided, maintaining the integrity of the milk products. The six insulated vertical storage tanks, each with a capacity of 120,000 liters, are equipped with propeller agitators and CIP (Clean-In-Place) cleaning systems, ensuring that hygiene standards are met without compromising operational efficiency. The comprehensive milk and cream pasteurization systems are designed to meet stringent temperature cycles, ensuring that the final products are safe for consumption and retain their nutritional value.

In addition to the core processing capabilities, the Tetra Pak / Alfa-Laval milk reception and processing plant includes a complete CIP unit with four insulated tanks, allowing for simultaneous cleaning of multiple items. The advanced control systems, featuring Siemens PLCs and HMI touch panels, provide operators with intuitive interfaces for monitoring and managing the entire process. The plant's design also accommodates future scalability, making it a long-term investment for dairy producers looking to enhance their processing capabilities. With the line currently installed in Finland and available for inspection, potential buyers can witness firsthand the quality and efficiency that the Tetra Pak / Alfa-Laval milk reception and processing plant offers.
