UHT Juice Pasteurization Machine Manufacturer for Beverage

Product introduction of UHT Juice Pasteurization Machine

The UHT juice pasteurization machine is an advanced tubular sterilizer designed for continuous sterilization and cooling of liquid food products. It is widely used in beverage, dairy, chemical and herbal extraction industries. The system consists of a material tank, superheated water system, tubular heat exchanger, PLC control system, steam injection unit and automatic valves. It achieves high thermal efficiency with over 90% heat recovery, reducing energy consumption. The turbulent flow design prevents scaling and ensures self-cleaning performance. It is suitable for high-viscosity products and materials containing fibers or particles, ensuring stable, safe and efficient industrial sterilization.

Working principle

Step 1. Liquid material enters storage tank for controlled feeding
Step 2. Pump transfers product into tubular heat exchanger
Step 3. Superheated water system provides high-temperature sterilization
Step 4. Tubular turbulent flow ensures uniform heat distribution
Step 5. PLC system controls temperature, flow rate and timing
Step 6. Heat recovery system captures and reuses thermal energy
Step 7. Cooling section rapidly reduces product temperature
Step 8. Sterilized liquid is discharged to filling or storage system
