What are the benefits of MicroThermics Development Series UHT/HTST Processing Equipment?

  • The accuracy to commercial processes, and ease-of use of our equipment:
    • Enables researchers to quickly develop products and get them to market
    • Reduces costs and development time
    • Eliminates failed plant trials
  • Simple Set-Up Guide, ease of use, and intuitive controls:
    • Reduce training requirement, minimize operator errors & maximize operating time
  • MicroThermics lab processors do the work of multiple traditional pilot plant processors:
    • This reduces initial investment costs, space requirements, and maintenance costs compared to traditional pilot plant processors
  • The flexibility of MicroThermics Development Series processors enables clients to process a wide range of products on a single machine:
    • Dairy milks, Plant-based milks, protein shakes, puddings
    • Juices, smoothies, teas, coffees, concentrates and more!

How does MicroThermics Development Series UHT/HTST Equipment Work?

Just like in production, MicroThermics Development Series UHT/HTST Processors rapidly heat, hold, and cool fluid products using our proprietary heat exchangers and designs. In addition, our in-line homogenizers generate uniform and stable products. Finally, researchers simulate commercial aseptic fillers by filling samples into pre-sterilized containers within our Ultra Clean-Fill Hood. Together, these items create an easy-to-use, complete processing line that generates production-quality product samples right in your lab.

What Processes Can You Run on MicroThermics Development Series UHT/HTST Processing Lines?

The Development Series UHT/HTST processors can run at a wide range of processing temperatures with in-line homogenizers and our Aseptilab Clean Fill Hoods to accurately simulate production processes. These machines do the work of multiple pilot plants. These processes include:

  • Hot Fill and Hot fill with hold tube
  • Single and two-stage HTST Pasteurization
  • Two-stage UHT Processing
  • High and Low-Acid Aseptic Processing
  • HTST with homogenization (upstream or downstream)
  • UHT with homogenization (upstream or downstream)
  • Continuous Cooking
  • And more!
