• information

A yogurt processing line is a series of equipment and machinery used to produce yogurt in a large-scale production setting. The line typically includes various stages and processes, such as milk reception, milk storage, pasteurization, homogenization, fermentation, cooling, flavoring, filling, packaging, and labeling.

Milk Reception: Raw milk is received and tested for quality before it is stored in designated tanks.

Milk Storage: Milk is stored in temperature-controlled tanks to maintain its freshness and quality.

Pasteurization: The milk is heated to specific temperatures to kill harmful bacteria while preserving beneficial enzymes and nutrients.

Homogenization: The milk is then homogenized to ensure a consistent texture and prevent separation of cream.

Fermentation: The milk is inoculated with live cultures of bacteria (such as Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus) and incubated at controlled temperatures to allow the fermentation process to occur.

Cooling: Once the desired fermentation time is reached, the yogurt is cooled to stop the fermentation process and stabilize the product.

Flavoring: Flavors, fruits, or other additives are added to the yogurt to enhance taste and texture.

Filling: The yogurt is filled into individual containers, such as cups or bottles, through automated filling machines.

Packaging: The filled containers are then sealed, either by heat-sealing or using lids, and prepared for further processing.

Labeling: The containers are labeled with product information, including nutritional facts, ingredients, and branding.

Quality Control: Throughout the process, quality control measures are implemented to ensure that the yogurt meets the desired standards for taste, texture, and safety.

Storage and Distribution: The packaged yogurt is stored in appropriate conditions before being distributed to retailers or consumers.

Data

Composition of yoghurt fermentation system.

Yoghurt fermentation system includes: online culture addition system, ultra-clean fermentation tanks system, aseptic air system,flexible cooling system and matched pipes, valves,instruments and control programs, etc.

online culture addition system

The online culture addition system adopts the ultra-clean culture online addition method, which includes culture adding tube that
can fit different types of cultures and an aseptic filter air positive pressure protective cover that reaches a 100-level purification level

ultra-clean fermentation tanks system

The ultra-clean fermentation tanks system mainly refers to the fermentation tanks and auxiliary configuration to be used in the yoghurt fermentation process

Flexible cooling system

The flexible cooling system mainly includes a large channel low flow rate plate and a constant temperature water system. Through this system, the fermented yoghurt can be cooled to about 20,and the cooling temperature difference less than 5dT, which can
minimize the damage of the yoghurt viscosity, which can achieve better post-fermentation effect.

Aseptic air system

Aseptic air system includes SUS304 bracket, including degreasing and dewatering filter, activated carbon filter, coarse filter,sterilizing filter, steam filter; compressed air pressure reducing valve, steam pressure reducing valve, pressure gauge,temperature probes, etc., this system can be steam sterilized and CIP cleaned.It is used for the protection of micro positive pressure in the tank during the fermentation process, which can prevent the materials in the tank from being contaminated
by the outside enviroment.
