How a Test Line Fits Together

A small test line can combine mixing, heating and filling in the order the recipe needs.

How it works

A line can combine mixing, air removal, homogenizing, heating, and filling, depending on how the liquid or semi-liquid product behaves.

The recipe, batch size, package and test goal shape the layout. Separate units make it possible to test one step on its own or see how several steps work together.

The layout determines which site connections, pipes and sampling points are needed. Factory equipment and settings can differ and need separate testing.
