Production of gelatine products with LEWA multiplex pumps and systems

For the production of gelatine products, LEWA provides a series of solutions for various process steps:

• By using multiplex pumps for recipe metering or complete systems, LEWA provides hygienic alternatives in the entire process for producing gelatine.
• For each component of the recipe metering (sugar and gelatine solution, color, flavor, acid, etc.) a metering unit is used that consists of at least one LEWA metering pump and a downstream static mixer.
• As early as the project stage, calculations are carried out for optimizing the suction side conditions.
• LEWA multiplex process pumps with a hygiene-compliant diaphragm pump head are the tried-and-tested solution for sterile metering of gelatine into a cooler.
• LEWA multiplex pumps always convey with the greatest precision, even at a counterpressure from 20 to 50 bar, which can arise during the drying process.
• Sanitary/hygiene-compliant design of the pumps used with the least dead space
• Wetted parts are FDA-compliant as well as tested and documented for USP Class VI
• Material certificates in accordance with EN 10204 3.1
• Surfaces of the pump polished mechanically (316/316L-1.4401/1.4404: RA < 0.8µm) or polished mechanically and electro-polished (1.4435: RA < 0.5µm).
• Easy to clean in accordance with recognized industrial standards (EHEDG, QHD, FDA and USP Class VI-compliant)
• The pumps can be sterilized with hot water or steam at up to 150 °C.
