A leading company in the food industry, cheese maker and other dairy products, needed to clean properly and disinfect the environment and production equipment before and after the preparation of each manufacturing batch.

The typical problems of this type of food are found in the point of weighing salt, milk powder and lactose, as well as at various points of transport, where they tend to produce losses of this material and the spread of dust by the ship. Dust can not only be harmful to people, but it can also be explosive, as in the case of lactose.

FAPP Aspiración Systems designed, manufactured and installed a special AE-9 team for ATEX classified areas. The equipment included a mataespurnes security system and anti-theft valves. The anti-theft valves completely close the passage of air in circulation from the outside inwards and leave free passage in the opposite direction. The dust collection equipment and the rest of the installation are manufactured in stainless steel in accordance with the regulations of the food sector.

In the process of wrapping candy, sugar is spilled, spreading through the air and forming a sticky layer on the floor and the machinery. The first implication is a decrease in the yield of production, and second, a decrease in the safety of workers as it is an explosive material. FAPP Aspiración Systems designed and implemented two AE-14 equipment with ATEX specifications and special stainless material to cover four machines to wrap in two production lines. The result was that there were no debris of sugar in the soil or inside production machines, allowing to recover the expected yield of production.

In the coffee sector, a client with coffee capsule distribution worldwide, had two problems. First, the transport of coffee was neither efficient nor functional, and the second, a problem of coffee breaks in the process of packaging in capsules.

For the transport problem, FAPP Aspiration Systems designed and developed an aspiration set to increase the coffee load. The transport of the product is carried out by means of a vacuum cleaner or an annular turbine. An automatic discharge valve and a product level viewer were installed in the hopper. The installation of the pipe and the hopper is designed so that coffee beans are not damaged, a fundamental point to guarantee the highest quality coffee.

For the problem of mines, an aspiration equipment was designed to collect the resultant loss during the process of manufacture of coffee or tea capsules and the possible cuts of paper-aluminum produced in the packaging thereof. Thanks to the fact that coffee or aspirated tea could be reused, this equipment led to a 7% reduction in savings that allowed the suction equipment to be amortized in a few months.
