Spray dryer performance optimization system
Achieve unparalleled spray drying efficiency with real-time monitoring and control, ensuring precision and minimizing costly downtimes due to nozzle blockages or product build-up.
The SPRAYEYE® Visual Digital from GEA is a cutting-edge monitoring system designed to enhance the efficiency and safety of spray drying operations. This system provides continuous visual quality control and rapid detection of common nozzle issues such as leaks and product accumulation, crucial for preventing costly downtime. Ideal for food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries, it ensures the consistent production of high-quality end-products like milk powder, pharmaceutical excipients, and protein powders. With its integration capability into existing control systems and continuous real-time monitoring, it reduces the risk of temperature fluctuations and optimizes operational procedures. The system is constructed with a food-grade, shatterproof PSU polymer window and features simple, user-friendly software, including high-temperature alarms and automated shutdown. SPRAYEYE® Visual Digital is CIP-resistant, although it recommends window removal during the process for longevity, and it meets industry standards for quality and safety. Additionally, GEA offers comprehensive engineering support for tailored integration into your production line.
