(Investment: 2 million US dollars · Design Manufacturing Installation Debugging Operation Full Process)


Milk processing equipment


1、 Market and Process Positioning (2025 Perspective)
-Raw materials: 4-8% fat and 3.5-4.5% protein in Indian buffalo milk, supplied throughout the year;
- Demand : The Indian cold drink market is growing by 8% annually, the school breakfast plan is increasing by 10% per year, and the PET sterile milk premium is>USD 0.35 L ;
- Products : Pasteurized fresh milk, UHT milk, blended yogurt, Greek style concentrated, PET sterile milk, one click switching.

2、 Fully automatic process module (key engineering perspective)

|Module | Core Equipment&Parameters | Optimal Manufacturing Standards&New Technologies|

| 1. Raw materials and pretreatment | ① 20 t receiving bin+negative pressure dust removal 1800 m ³/h; ② Dual filter 80 mesh; ③ Online fat standardization ± 0.1% | AI visual removal of foreign objects, negative pressure delivery without dust|


| 2. Homogenization module | ④ Two stage high-pressure homogenization 25+5 MPa, 70 ° C, D90 ≤ 2 µ m | Online back pressure ± 0.02 MPa to prevent fat from floating up|


| 3. Sterilization module | ⑤ HTST 85 ° C/30 min (pasteurization); ⑥ UHT 121 ° C/4 s (long-lasting); ⑦ Greek style scraper 95 ° C/5 min | Plant based UHT 135 ° C/4 s, denaturation<5%|


| 4. Fermentation module | ⑧ Conical bottom fermentation tank 10 m ³ × 2, 42 ° C/4-6 h, pH ± 0.02 | Microcapsule strain addition device, survival rate>90%|


| 5. Cooling and ripening | ⑨ Plate change to 4-6 ° C, ≤ 30 minutes; ⑩ Post ripening jar at 4 ° C/12-24 h | GC-MS online flavor monitoring|


| 6. Filling module | ⑪ PET sterile brick 24000 pph, H ₂ O ₂ dry sterilization; ⑫ Greek style centrifugation+sterile bag 1 t h ⁻¹ | PET preform dry sterilization, no water required|


| 7. CIP&Digitization | ⑬ 5-tank CIP, alkali recovery membrane -28%; ⑭ AI fermentation prediction with 92% accuracy | Digital twin: Δ pH ± 0.02 triggers CIP|

3、 Key project delivery path

|Stage | Time | Key Actions|
| 1. Design | 0-2 months | 3D modeling+pry installation ≤ 8 flanges, Hindi HMI, BRC pre validation|
| 2. Manufacturing | February August | Low temperature TIG welding Ra ≤ 0.6 µ m, FAT continuous 72 hours without failure|
| 3. Installation | August December | Plug and play installation, with ≤ 8 flanges on site, installation cycle of 12 weeks|
| 4. Debugging | 12-14 months | 72 hour full load operation: OEE ≥ 86%, a-septic fault<0.2%|
| 5. Run | 14 months+| Remote VPN+AI prediction, MTTR ↓ 30%, BRC one click authentication|

4、 Performance and Cost (Key Delivery)
-Capacity: 20 t/d raw milk → 18 t/d finished product
-Energy consumption: 0.28 MWh/t milk (CHP offset)
-Water consumption:<0.6 m ³/t (80% reuse)
-Investment: USD 2 M, BRC&GCC one click authentication.

V. Summary
Through the integration of "HTST+UHT+AI fermentation+PET aseptic+key engineering",  Indian customers with a one-stop digital factory from "water milk" to "cup yogurt/PET aseptic milk", helping them to go directly from "grassland pastures" to "urban convenience stores" with just one click.
