Homogenization
Inline Lab Homogenizer
A small, high-pressure unit for testing how droplet size, texture and separation change in milk and other drinks.
How the equipment works
A high-pressure valve breaks up droplets and helps spread particles evenly. Samples show how the recipe and pressure affect texture, consistency and separation.
The unit can sit before or after heating. The stainless-steel frame shown here carries the homogenizer, a damper to smooth the flow, valves, gauges and a control cabinet.
Flow rate, temperature, thickness, and particles help determine where the homogenizer sits. Sampling at the same point helps make runs comparable.
