System designed to distribute mixture to multiple points by means of shuttling containers.
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:
1-3 vessels on the same rail
GEA's innovative process marks a milestone in the pretreatment of biofuels such as hydro-treated vegetable oil and sustainable aviation fuel. By eliminating the bleaching process, manufacturers benefit from significant savings potential: over 50% lower operating costs and up to 12% less CO2 emissions.
Climate change and a growing world population put increased pressure on the energy-intensive food industry to feed more people without further impacting the planet. George Shepherd, GEA’s Global Technical Sustainability Manager, explains how GEA uses its engineering know-how to help processors produce more sustainably yet increase productivity.
The world's population is growing and with it demand for milk. Dairy is an essential component of many global diets. However, its production can be resource-intensive and impact the environment. GEA’s Christian Müller, Senior Director Sustainability Farm Technologies, sheds light on how technological innovations powered by GEA make milk production more efficient and profitable.
