Overview
Scraped surface heat exchange for continuous sterilization
The blades keep renewing the heat transfer surface so the product heats and sterilizes evenly. Suited to high-viscosity food liquids or those that tend to stick.

Structure
A continuous process from heating to cooling
Product moves along the scraped surface through heating, holding and cooling, with the blades keeping the heat transfer surface stable.
- 01
Preheating section
Brings the product smoothly into the following temperature stages.
- 02
Sterilization section
Completes sterilization by indirect heat exchange.
- 03
Holding section
Holds the process temperature; the exact time is confirmed for each process.
- 04
Cooling section
Brings the product to the temperature needed for the next step.
Features
Core features
For viscous products
The scraping action suits higher-viscosity food liquids.
Stable heat transfer surface
Continuously renews the heat transfer surface, limiting the effect of product build-up.
Continuous sterilization
Heating, holding and cooling follow one another in sequence.
Configured per process
The process is defined by the product and the sterilization requirements.
application
