The key to guiding your process flow:
GEA FLOWVENT Shut-off valves are used for easy shut-off solutions in hygienic applications.
Function
For simple shut-off functions, there is only one seal separating the pipelines from each other. In the event of a possible seal failure, liquid can leak into the second pipeline. For this reason, shut-off valves are not suitable for separating incompatible media.
Application
Shut-off valves are ideal for use e.g. as drain valves or to shut off a bypass line. Often these valve types are also used as dosing valves.

The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.
Das Ganze im Blick: Wie Anlagen dauerhaft besser laufen
Eine effiziente Maschine macht noch keine effiziente Produktion. Echte Verbesserungen beginnen oft damit, den Blick über die einzelnen Anlagenelemente hinaus zu richten und zu verstehen, wie sich Prozesse, Energiesysteme und betriebliche Entscheidungen gegenseitig beeinflussen. Ein solcher ganzheitlicher Ansatz hilft beim Identifizieren von Potenzialen, die sonst verborgen bleiben.
Wie eine neue Ventiltechnologie die Produktion von Lebensmitteln und Getränken verändert
In der Lebensmittel- und Getränkeindustrie werden Ventile traditionell mit Druckluft betrieben. Die GEA Hydract®-Antriebstechnologie betätigt Ventile dagegen mit Wasser in einem geschlossenen, digital gesteuerten Kreislauf. Das Ergebnis: Ventile lassen sich präzise in jeder gewünschten Position halten und in fein abgestuften Schritten steuern. Dadurch sinken der Energieverbrauch und gleichzeitig steigt die Prozesskontrolle erheblich.
