Soft drink maker cuts mixing time
Faced with a tight construction time frame, a soft drink manufacturer asked Alfa Laval to select equipment for a new mixing processing line. After analysing the shear-sensitive syrup formulation and testing mixing equipment under actual operating conditions at its Fluid Handling Application & Innovation Centre, it was found that the Alfa Laval Rotary Jet Mixer delivered good performance compared with conventional agitators.
Installing the right equipment ensured more uptime, higher productivity and yields, and sustainable cost savings. The centre determined the Rotary Jet Mixer reduced mixing time from 20 minutes using its conventional agitators to just two minutes while ensuring the formulation’s structural integrity.

“Using the right equipment and components boosts productivity, reduces costs and enhances your sustainability profile,” said Murat Boztepe, Global Beverage Industry Manager, Alfa Laval.
