CANDY SIEVING

Advantages of the IRIS Equipment in Candy Sieving

The IRIS equipment enables fast and reproducible sieving, making it ideal for tests in accordance with standardized norms in the food and confectionery industries.

In addition, performing a sieving test with the IRIS equipment helps reduce raw material waste, improve operational efficiency, and ensure a consistent experience for the end consumer.

For sensitive products like crushed candies, particle size control not only affects appearance but also influences perceived quality and product stability during storage or transportation.

This type of analysis is also useful for developing more accurate technical data sheets, meeting export requirements, or designing specific formulations for different markets.

For a general guide on the principles of particle size analysis in food, you can consult online technical resources such as this one on sieving.

Do you carry out quality control in confectionery or develop new candy-based products?

ALGAE SIEVING

SIFTING PASTA

The process of sifting pasta is a crucial step in production that involves removing impurities and unwanted particles from the pasta. These particles can include dried pasta fragments, dust, tomato skins, and other materials that don’t belong in the final product.

Sifting the pasta occurs at various stages in the production process depending on the type of pasta being made. For example, when producing spaghetti, sifting might take place after mixing the ingredients and before extrusion, whereas with egg noodles, sifting may occur after the drying process.

One important consideration when sifting pasta is the number of times the pasta is sifted. Over-sifting can remove too much liquid, leading to dry and brittle pasta. On the other hand, not sifting enough can result in unwanted particles remaining in the pasta, affecting the texture and appearance of the final product.

Choosing the right sieve is crucial in the pasta sifting process. Sieves should be selected based on the size of the unwanted particles and the desired size of the pasta pieces.

The aim of this process is to ensure that the pasta has a consistent and smooth texture and can be cooked evenly.

At Filtra Vibración, we offer different equipment that is perfectly suited for different types of pasta sifting. Contact our experts to determine which sifting technique and equipment will best suit the needs of your product.

SCREENING OF REFINED COFFEE

INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY AND REDUCED PRODUCT WASTE.

Production begins with freshly harvested coffee beans. These grains are peeled to remove the fruit and the green pods are polished to remove the straw as it is an unpleasant element to taste. In this way the pods are cleaned and graded to be toasted.

The Helios equipment allows to filter a large number of pollutants, improving purity, quality and productivity in the screening of coffee without large costs derived from structural changes in the production line.

With a continuous screening of coffee rejecting contaminants there is a reduction of discards of valid product, so a significant improvement in productivity is generated because of an improvement in the screening process.

Our equipments are designed to handle with a wide range of processes, contact our experts to find out how to achieve the perfect screening for your product.

VEGETABLE DRINK SIEVING

Vegetable drink comes from the extraction of proteins and fats from legumes, cereals and seeds.

The most common production of vegetable drink are almonds, soy or oats.

The production processes of each type of vegetable drink have their particularities, the treatment is similar in all. Selection and cleaning of the product, soaking with sweeteners, grinding and finally sieving of the vegetable drink.

In all processes for each type of vegetable drink, waste and pulp of different sizes are generated, the sieving of the pulp is necessary to avoid a grainy texture from these residues of the ingredients of each type of vegetable drink.

In this way we obtain a final product with the desired texture softness. Filtra Vibración has different industrial screening equipment that are the optimal solution to ensure a smooth texture and at the same time avoid slowing, improving production times.

Contact our experts and they will help you find the best solution and equipment for your vegetable drink sieving.

SIEVING OF MILK POWDER

Solutions for sanitary sieving of milk powder and other food sector.

Milk powder maintains great nutritional benefits for its high energy value and high amount of proteins, it is also an important source of calcium and “vitamin A” if it comes from whole milk. The powder does not lose the nutritional elements of the milk. Once reconstituted with water it has a similar nutritional value to liquid milk.

Milk powder is also used as a base element of many products such as yogurts, ice cream, chocolates, juices and a large number of bakery products.

Filtra Vibración provides solutions for the sieving of milk powder, both skimmed, whole or whey powder.

For the production of dairy powders it is essential to avoid any contamination of the product as well as the effects of agglomerates in order to protect the quality of the product.

Filtra Vibración equipment are an optimal solution to the costs associated with downtime by locks, protecting the quality and reputation of the product.

NUT PASTE SCREENING

Pasta and nut oils need to be sieved before being used in food production. They are products that tend to contain large particles such as nuts solids, shells, agglomerated particles and other types of external contamination. To obtain health, safety and quality standards, it is essential that producers check the quality of the ingredients and final products.

The nut paste is part of a lot of bakery products, confectionery and is extremely viscous. Efficient and high performance sieving equipment is absolutely necessary to process and sift the product, separating the fine and soft nut paste from the large solids so that it can be used in food production.

The Helios equipment provides an optimal solution for efficient nut paste safety screening and accurate sorting of powders, granules and high viscosity liquids.
