BETE was called by a maker of frozen pastries to assist in troubleshooting process problems. With an automated spray system that would deliver a regular oil application, save expenses, and maintain a stable nutritional content with dependable dosing, they hoped to improve the quality of their product.
What is the solution to this underspray problem?
BETE experts took a sample of palm oil on their initial visit to the facility to go over the process specifications. The fluid characteristics of hydrogenated oil change substantially with temperature. Therefore, BETE undertook extensive testing in their spray lab to determine the most suitable spray nozzle choice and operating conditions.
The FlexFlow Precision Spray Control System and Hygienic Electric HydroPulse Spray Nozzles with BJ Flat Fan tips were put to the test in a live demonstration on the assembly line by BETE, who then headed back to the plant to show off their excellent accuracy. To guarantee the right quantity of oil would spray precisely into the delicate pastry dough as it travelled down the conveyor, they improved the system by using a fibre optic sensor.
The customer bought a cart-mounted FlexFlow spray system with two hygienically created Electric HydroPulse nozzles on a regular spray bar after seeing the increased spray performance. Two pressure tanks with controls were part of the heated spray system, which was used to keep the processing lines' oil supply steady.
The outcome?
The customer saw greater consistency, higher product quality, and faster production rates right away. Additionally, there were considerable financial savings brought about by less human effort, superior effectiveness, less oil use, and little overspray.
