A shear pump is a specific Pump used in milk plants for efficient and consistent production of buttermilk, for mixing and fine particle size reduction to achieve smooth texture and uniform Butter milk
Shear pumps work on a rotor-stator principle where action rapidly disperses and emulsifies milk components, breaking curd particles down to sizes typically between 10 and 25 microns. This process ensures homogeneous blending and prevents lump formation, which is essential for the consistent quality desired in buttermilk production. Mixing and pumping together reduce overall processing time while improving texture.
Advantages in Milk Plants: Uniform particle size, smooth buttermilk with desirable mouthfeel.
Shortens mixing and processing duration as, product transfer and mixing. Easy to maintain, with low energy consumption and sanitary design compatible with CIP/SIP cleaning. Customizable for different viscosity ranges and product requirements. Easy to control texturizing effect by adjusting rotor/stator combinations and speed
Shear pumps are widely used across dairy Instead of HOMOZINISER Machine for milk reconstitution, yogurt, ice-cream mix, and cheese dressing, as well as in other industries for emulsions and dispersions. Their ability to provide continuous inline mixing streamlines production and ensures high efficiency.
Available with Safety Features, motor for special requirement. Shear pumps are a proven solution for milk plants aiming to optimize buttermilk production with greater efficiency and product consistency.
