TA1 Texture Analyzer

The TA1 Texture Analyzer is an easy-to-use, cost-effective solution to evaluate the textural properties (compression, shear, extrusion, puncture, hardness forces etc) of a wide range of products at all stages of manufacture. It can perform rapid, detailed texture profile analysis (TPA) for applications up to 102 kgf (1 kN, 225 lbf).

Armfield

Armfield can trace its history back over 130 years, throughout which the Company's policy of quality, innovation and service has helped it to maintain a strong market position and develop a reputation for industry leadership in the field of Engineering teaching.

UHT/HTST System

A miniature-scale UHT processing system optimised for product-development use. The system is highly flexible and has a wide range of options.

Carbonator/Filler

The Armfield FT102X miniature-scale carbonator enables precise and flexible carbonation and filling in the laboratory, dramatically improving the speed with which new products can be developed.

FT104X Filler/Capper (Counter Pressure Filling Station)

The ability to establish precise and reproducible parameters when carbonating in the laboratory can dramatically improve the speed with which new products can be developed. The Armfield FT102X miniature-scale carbonator enables precise and flexible carbonation.

Modular Miniature-scale HTST/UHT Process System

Modular Miniature-scale HTST/UHT Process System

Now with Scraped Surface Heat Exchanger Option - FT174-75

Treats products at flow rates of 20-60 l/hr. Modules available for: direct/indirect heating; aseptic processing; upstream/downstream homogenization; additional chilling. Options enable multiple modules to be included in the same system, giving high process adaptability.

HTST/UHT Mini Pilot System

HTST/UHT Mini Pilot System

The Armfield FT94X HTST/UHT Mini Pilot system extends the range of continuous operation scaled-down units offered by Armfield to 200 l/hr (30-100 l/hr standard format).
The Armfield FT94X HTST/UHT Mini Pilot system extends the range of continuous operation scaled-down units offered by Armfield to 200 l/hr (30-100 l/hr standard format).
The unit combines full flexibility – plate and tubular heat exchanger options – with comprehensive instrumentation demanded of research and development equipment.

The FT94X is designed for operation as both a standalone unit and also for seamless integration into a full processing system with the capability of aseptic packaging of processed product.

Carbonator - Filler - FT102LT

The Armfield FT102X has a well-deserved reputation for being simply the best Carbonator-Filler on the market. The new Armfield FT102LT utilises the same technology and most of the features and benefits, in a smaller, more cost-effective package.

HYDROGENATION UNIT FT67

The Armfield Hydrogenation unit is a floor-standing batch
processing vessel, which is used to adjust the degree of saturation
of 25 litre batches of edible oils.

DEODORISING UNIT FT68

The deodorising process vessel has a batch size of 25 litres and is
mounted in a floor-standing stainless steel framework, which also
houses the high vacuum equipment, control console, discharge
pump and polishing filter
