Cream and Butter Processing Line

ProTrus delivers a seamless path from raw milk to retail-ready butter, combining precision fat standardization with continuous butter-maker technology for uniform texture and extended shelf life.

  • Consistent fat & moisture control
  • Energy-efficient, hygienic workflow

Integrated Cream Separation & Pasteurization

A high-speed separator skims cream to the exact fat percentage required, while inline standardization units adjust residual skim for optimal economy. Plate heat exchangers reclaim up to 94 % of thermal energy during pasteurization, slashing utility costs without compromising safety. ProTrus modules include vacuum deaeration to remove off-flavours before cooling to 8 °C.

Controlled Maturation for High-Yield Butter

Double-jacket maturation tanks hold cream at 5–8 °C for 8–15 hours, allowing crystal formation that boosts churning efficiency and improves spreadability. Gentle agitation prevents fat clustering, ensuring uniformity before transfer to the churn.

Continuous Churning & Working

Our line features a continuous butter-maker that accelerates churning through high-shear rotor chambers, producing up to 15 t/h of butter with less variability than batch units. Variable-speed drives and water-recirculation pumps cut consumption by 550 L/h, advancing sustainability goals.

Real-Time Fat Standardization

Inline mass-flow meters and control valves hold butter fat to ±0.1 %, improving batch consistency and reducing giveaway.

Energy Recovery & Sustainability

Regenerative plate heat exchangers, VSD pumps and closed-loop chilled-water systems can cut total plant energy by up to 20 %.

CIP Assurance for Food Safety

Automated detergent concentration monitoring documents every wash, satisfying retailer audits and global standards such as 3-A and ISO 22000.
