Modular Miniature Scale HTST / UHT Process System

A modular HTST/UHT processing system designed to treat liquid products at laboratory and pilot-scale flow rates. Interchangeable modules support direct or indirect heating, aseptic processing, homogenisation, and additional chilling.

A compact base processing unit designed for flexible thermal treatment of liquid products. The modular architecture allows rapid configuration changes to suit different product requirements and processing objectives.
