Application: Food and Beverage Production
In the field of food and beverage production, from aseptic packaging, accurate filling to fermentation process control, each link has almost harsh requirements on the cleanliness, stability and safety of compressed air. A little impurity of the air source may contaminate the food, air pressure fluctuations will lead to filling metering inaccuracy, packaging sealing is not tight, a direct threat to food safety and corporate reputation. ZAKF, a brand of Dongguan Jubilee Compressor Fittings Co., Ltd, has launched a 300HP frequency
Screw Compressor, which has become a key partner of food and beverage companies in realizing high-quality production due to its industrial-grade reliability and excellent performance.
A well-known beverage group in China mainly produces bottled drinking water, fruit juice and carbonated drinks. Before the introduction of ZAKF 300HP industrial screw compressor, the air compressor used by the enterprise was not up to the standard due to the air quality and unstable air pressure, resulting in frequent liquid spillage and poor sealing of bottle caps in the filling process, with the defective rate of products reaching as high as 12%, and the loss of more than 15 million yuan in recalls and reworks due to the defects in packaging every year. In the fermentation workshop, the unstable gas source also affects the homogeneity of gas mixing, leading to the imbalance of the taste of some batches of beverages, and the customer complaint rate remains high. At the same time, 18 hours of downtime per month for maintenance caused by equipment failures severely constrained production capacity. Mr. Li, the production director, said helplessly, “In the food industry, the gas supply problem is not only a cost burden, but also a safety hazard that can affect the life and death of a brand, and we urgently need a reliable solution.”
After ZAKF 300HP IF screw compressor was put into use, the production situation of the beverage group was completely new. The direct-drive structure of the IF motor provides a stable output of 0.8MPa pressure and 28m³/min air supply with a transmission efficiency of over 98%, providing stable power for the filling line, fermentation tanks and other equipment. The carburized twin-screw rotor with full cast iron body realizes 24-hour continuous operation for more than 20 months without failure, and the maintenance cycle is extended to 8,000 hours, which reduces the downtime for maintenance by 90%. Three-stage air-water separator and nano-filter control the oil content of compressed air below 0.01mg/m³, with a filtration precision of 0.01μm, which meets the ISO 8573-1 Class 0 standard to eliminate the risk of food contamination from the root. Filling defective rate plummeted to 2%, fermentation process stability improved, product taste consistency from 85% to 99%, saving losses of more than 13 million yuan per year. Intelligent interlocking system monitors the status of equipment in real time, with ±1% early warning accuracy to avoid failure in advance and ensure production continuity. Mr. Li excitedly shared, “This 300 hp fixed speed
Screw Air Compressor is only 6.5kW/(m³/min) in full-load operation, saving more than 3.5 million yuan in electricity costs annually, and the production capacity has increased by 45%, which helps us have a more competitive edge in the market.”
In addition to its powerful performance, the 300HP frequency screw compressor reduces the energy conversion loss by 15% compared with the inverter model, which significantly reduces the energy consumption cost. Dongguan Jubilee Compressor Parts Co., Ltd. provides a full range of services, including a one-year warranty, sufficient original spare parts reserves and a team of professional engineers to respond quickly for the safe production of food and beverage companies throughout the escort. As a screw compressor source manufacturer, the company relies on 60,000 square meters of modernized base and more than 260 professional staff to achieve rapid delivery in multiple locations around the world.
