Description
Description: Used Tetra Pak UHT milk bottling line, rated at 7,500 bph, specifically designed for the processing and aseptic packaging of UHT milk products in 200 ml slim carton formats. This industrial bottling line features original Tetra Pak equipment, including the Tetra Pak TBA/19-10V aseptic filler, integrated with a Tetra Pak automatic conveyor system featuring Easy Ride accumulation, an automatic straw applicator (TSA 21), and a secondary packaging unit (CBP 70). Each component is designed for continuous operation and seamless integration, ensuring product safety, operational efficiency, and compliance with international standards for shelf-stable dairy products. The entire line is built for aseptic processing, managing the forming, filling, capping, application of accessories, and secondary packaging of UHT milk in a fully automated sequence. The process ensures high levels of product hygiene, packaging integrity, and line efficiency, supporting industrial-scale operations. Aseptic filling and product handling section The heart of this line is the Tetra Pak Tetra Brik Aseptic TBA/19 – 10V filler, dedicated to the production of 200 ml Slim cartons. The aseptic configuration includes a packaging material sterilization process using a hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) bath, followed by drying with sterile air. This ensures complete microbial decontamination of the carton's internal surfaces before filling. Filling takes place within a controlled sterile chamber, which maintains positive pressure isolation from the external environment, ensuring the microbiological safety of the UHT milk during packaging. The filling system uses a high-precision volumetric dosing head with electronic flow and level control, ensuring consistent and repeatable filling for every package. The carton is sealed (both longitudinally and top-side) by heat sealing, ensuring a hermetic seal and the integrity of the package. All the main mechanical operations are managed by an integrated automation system, which continuously monitors and controls temperature, pressure, and exposure times for each critical phase of the cycle. Automation, quality control, and end-of-line This used Tetra Pak bottling line for UHT milk at 7500 bph is fully automated via a centralized control panel, with real-time management of all operating parameters for the filler and connected machinery. Each section is equipped with sensors, photocells, safety devices, and operator panels for process diagnostics and fine-tuning. The machines communicate via standardized fieldbus systems and wired connections, ensuring perfect synchronization during format changeovers or start-stop cycles. Product transport is managed by the Tetra Pak Package Conveyor 21 system, integrated with the Easy Ride accumulation system. This ensures smooth handling and continuous carton alignment between each stage, providing a buffer of approximately 3 minutes to compensate for minor downstream stoppages and prevent carton tipping. The Tetra Pak Straw Applicator 21 (TSA 21) is dedicated to the precise application of paper straws onto slim cartons using Nordson hotmelt adhesive technology. This applicator operates at high speed, fully integrated with the main filler to accommodate production rates and ensure accuracy. Secondary packaging is handled by the Tetra Pak Cardboard Packer 70 (CBP 70), which automatically packs finished cartons into corrugated boxes. The unit supports flexible packaging designs and is currently configured for 3x8 (24 cartons per case) using Nordson Problue hotmelt adhesive technology. The CBP 70 is adaptable to alternative packaging schemes, depending on logistics or distribution needs. All key machines are equipped with integrated hour meters, automatic anomaly detection, quality control systems for sealing integrity, and reject management for out-of-spec products. The line's main power supply is 400/230 Volts, 50 Hz. Performance and Line Integration This used Tetra Pak UHT milk bottling line with a throughput of 7,500 bph is designed to ensure maximum efficiency in the aseptic bottling of UHT milk in single-serve formats. The effective production capacity is 7,500 packages per hour for 200 ml cartons, with the ability to handle various types of UHT milk thanks to the accuracy of the dosing system and the reliability of the aseptic environment throughout the line. The system's compact footprint significantly reduces floor space requirements, making it suitable for installation in facilities with limited available space without compromising performance. The seamless integration of the filler, conveyors, straw applicator, and cartoner is optimized for synchronized operation and minimized downtime, both planned and unplanned. All processes are developed in compliance with the rigorous quality and hygiene standards typical of Tetra Pak technology, with particular emphasis on cleanability, component reliability, and ease of scheduled maintenance. The line is suitable for continuous multi-shift production and can be easily integrated with external Clean-In-Place (CIP) systems, as well as plant-wide supervision and data management platforms for advanced digitalization and traceability. Online quality control stations automatically detect and reject non-compliant cartons, ensuring that only compliant packages proceed to the next stage. The modularity of the accessories, combined with the accumulation capacity, ensures production continuity even during brief interruptions at individual stations, supporting high overall equipment effectiveness (OEE). This used Tetra Pak 75,000 bph UHT milk bottling line is a robust solution for the dairy industry, offering reliability, filling accuracy, and compliance with hygiene and safety regulations for UHT milk in cartons. It represents a globally recognized industry standard for performance and build quality, ensuring long-term operational stability for modern dairy operations.
