Automatic Spray System For Food And Bakery

Many food and bakery manufacturers and processes have applications that benefit from well designed spray systems that can assist either with direct product quality or process improvement. Whether spraying ingredients, coatings, glazes, release agents or just water, being able to control the amount of material used, reduce waste and improve quality is essential in optimizing production and product quality.

Our electrically actuated Automatic Spray Systems are the ideal solution for all these applications as they can reduce waste, eliminate misting and overspray and reduce rejected products and downtime often experienced by manufacturers with inefficient spray systems.

We have experience in spraying almost all materials within the food and bakery industry and are able to help with the design and supply of the most efficient, reliable spray system.

Sealpump can also carry out initial spray tests at our facility in order to help select the best spray solution.

How The Automatic Spray System Works

how-it-works-revised

The electrically actuated pulse spray system and nozzles have an internal solenoid valve mounted virtually next to the nozzle tip itself. This electrically actuated valve allows the nozzle to be turned on and off extremely quickly giving exact control over the flow rate produced but without altering the pressure as is the case with standard hydraulic and pneumatic atomising sprays.

By being able to control the flow rate through controlling the pulse cycle, lower flow rates can be achieved and importantly without compromising the spray performance, so the angle and droplet size can remain the same while the flow adjusts for different line speeds or product application rates for example.

It can be used at high speeds and so can be used on high speed production lines. Pressure can remain constant as the flow can be adjusted by simply altering the spray pulse cycle.

This method of control also greatly reduces the misting and overspray that is often seen in low flow atomising systems. This helps with material usage control, improves system and process cleanliness and can have employee health benefits, especially when spraying oils and glazes.

 

Applications
  • Spraying food coatings & flavourings
  • Spraying glazes onto baked goods
  • Spraying alcohol (ethanol) onto food packaging to extend shelf life
  • Applying egg wash to baked goods
  • Spraying anti-microbial solutions onto meats and salads for food safety
  • Moistening spray systems for seed and topping adhesion
  • Tin & pan lubrication
  • Spraying mould release agents
  • Spraying mould inhibitors
  • Applying low volumes of water to combat water loss
  • Dough splitting/scoring
  • Many more

Benefits
  • High speed pulse of up to 4500 cycles per minute is suitable for high speed production lines and allows production to be increased
  • When used with the Automatic Spray Controller it gives precise control over the flow rate and spray angle
  • Flow rate can be easily adjusted simply by adjusting the on/off of the spray cycle on the control panel screen
  • Different flows can be achieved with a single nozzle size
  • Low flow rates are possible with larger orifice nozzles, reducing the risk of nozzle blockage
  • Food grade nozzle & system available
  • Eliminates misting and potential overspray improving product quality and improving process cleanliness
