Milk and dairy products

Additives such as vitamins or flavors are mixed with the milk inline. Insoluble components such as vegetable oils are pre-dispersed, for example when curdling milk during protein production (cheese manufacture).

Through the injection of steam,micro-organisms can be killed off in the production flow, and enzymesrendered inactive. In so doing, it is important that the distribution of steam is both rapid and uniform in order to avoid excessive local overheating.

Static mixers are also suitable for adding flavors to yogurt and kefir, mixing yogurt with cream or cream with curd, cooling dessert cremes, and adding fruit concentrates and coloring. And when only a few elements are used in the mixing, it is possible to create stripes of chocollate or fruit pastes.
