One of Turkey's leading milk and cheese producers switched to Packo Twin Screw Hygienic Pump technology to resolve process issues in their existing ayran transfer line.
The air diaphragm pumps previously used in the facility were inadequate in meeting process requirements:
- Non-linear and unstable flow was causing vibration and pressure fluctuations in the pipeline.
- High energy consumption and air costs were increasing operational expenses.
- The pump required frequent and costly maintenance.
- Complete cleaning could not be achieved during CIP processes, causing frequent line stoppages.
- Unstable ayran consistency was negatively affecting product quality continuity.
Solution Provided with Packo Twin Screw
- The Packo twin screw pump stabilized process control by transferring the product continuously, without vibration, and completely linearly using the axial flow principle.
- Key Advantages
Advantage | Description |
Stable and Smooth Flow | Axial transfer structure eliminates vibration, maintaining stable product consistency. |
CIP & SIP Compatible Hygienic Design | Line can be cleaned without dismantling the pump. |
Low Energy Consumption | Significantly lower operating costs compared to air diaphragm pump. |
Reduced Maintenance Cost | Mechanical structure provides extended service intervals. |
Preserves Product Structure | Prevents foam formation, phase separation, and consistency loss in ayran structure. |
Result
With this application:
- Product quality consistency was achieved,
- Line energy consumption was reduced,
- Maintenance and downtime costs were significantly decreased,
- CIP processes were accelerated and hygiene safety was enhanced.
