Homogenisers
FBF Italia manufacturers homogenisers and positive displacement pumps with capacities from 50L/hr through to 50,000L/hr.
Homogenisers are extremely common in dairy processes to disperse the cream in milk or in ice cream mix into a homogeneous emulsion. This prevents the cream from separating over time.
Plant-based diary alternatives (such as oat milk) also require homogenisation to stabilize the product and prevent the plant base and oil particles from separating.
Homogenisers are also used for various different pharmaceutical or laboratory applications. High-pressure pumps are used where very high pressure is required e.g. evaporated milk prior to spray drying or for high viscosity products, such as tomato paste.
