With this new decanter platform GEA has now combined the demands for high mechanical and sanitary reliability as well as the wish for maximum flexibility for investment and practical operation. The result: GEA offers an entire decanter family in a uniform design concept from the smallest right through to the largest decanter, ranging from the drive to the identical pedestal bearing principle. The advantage for the user, operating personnel and spare part maintenance: uniformity across the board. Nonetheless, due to its modular principle every decanter can be customized right down to the smallest detail: Low or high torque, flat or steep conical angle, low or high differential speed, hot or normal operation, oil or grease lubrication, special alloys for corrosion and erosion resistance or hygienic design with rotating feed pipes, spray nozzles and food grade materials.

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.

Beyond the machine: unlocking better plant performance
An efficient machine does not automatically make an efficient factory. Real improvement often starts by looking beyond individual equipment and understanding how processes, energy systems and operating decisions affect one another. It’s a holistic approach designed to uncover opportunities that might otherwise be missed.

How a valve reshapes the way food and drinks are made
In food and beverage plants, valves are commonly operated using compressed air. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology moves valves with water instead, in a closed, digitally controlled circuit. The result is a valve that can be held exactly in place and steered in fine-tuned steps. This results in lower energy use and greater control.
