Autoclave retort machine is a kind of equipment that utilizes high temperature and high pressure for heat treatment of foodstuffs, which is applicable to a variety of packaging forms. According to the sterilization medium and the different forms of structure, the common sterilizer mainly has spray type, water bath type, steam type and so on. For different packaging materials, its heat and pressure will directly affect the quality of products, so the choice of equipment type is particularly critical.
Sterilization of Bagged Products Adaptability
Flexible packaging such as aluminum foil pouches, composite bags are commonly used in sauces, cooked food, leisure food aseptic packaging. This type of packaging pressure resistance is poor, the temperature distribution requirements for uniformity, so it is recommended to use water spray sterilizer retort. This way through the multi-angle cycle of spraying, can avoid packaging bulging or rupture, while maintaining the integrity of the food taste and appearance.
Bottled Products Sterilization Needs
Bottled products such as glass bottles and PET bottles are more susceptible to thermal expansion during the sterilization process. For this type of packaging, hot water circulating or steam retort autoclaves are recommended. Its rapid heating and fine control of temperature difference can effectively prevent bottle rupture and ensure balanced sterilization effect. For liquid foods containing gas or emulsions, a pressure stabilization system is also critical.
Flexibility of Control System and Product Switching
Modern sterilizers are usually equipped with a PLC control system, which allows precise setting of multiple process parameters and one-touch switching to adapt to the sterilization needs of different products. the intelligent retort sterilization machine from Lonkia can preset multiple sterilization formulas and record the operating data to enhance production flexibility and product consistency.
