The SNT receives mixture from one or more mixers and it transfers it to the machines located downstream. The transport is carried out using containers equipped with a lower discharge gate and mounted on a motor-driven system running on rails.
The system features a motor-driven support structure for the container, whereas an encoder controls its position.
The detachable feeding hopper and an optional container lowering system have been designed to easily reach the containers. Moreover, a motor-driven rack opening at the bottom and stainless-steel round tubes guarantee an effective washing process avoiding product stagnation.
Machine performance:
- Capacity: 35 kg
1-3 vessels on the same rail

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.
