Quality control in the soft drink industry

Monitor critical parameters in your soft drink production to ensure continuously high product quality

Flowmetesr in the mixing process of beverages

Ensuring consistent product quality is a top priority for the beverage industry. In this context, product safety, exact dosing of the raw materials, monitoring of all critical process parameters, complete data recording, but also cost awareness are important factors. Innovative process instrumentation helps to meet these challenges, from delivery and dosing of the raw materials to blending and filling of the beverages.

Accurate sugar concentration

The sugar concentration is an important parameter for the consistent quality of a soft drink or juice. The concentration can be easily calculated by measuring the density. Inline measurement technology enables permanent quality monitoring based on real-time product data. This reduces time-consuming manual sampling and production downtime.

Our expertise in the field

Endress+Hauser offers various technologies for precise inline density measurement in soft drink production.

  • Determine fluid density in pipes using Proline Promass Coriolis flowmeters, such as Promass Q.
  • Rely on our Vibronic Density Computer FML621 for medium detection, to calculate the reference density, to calculate the concentration of a liquid and to convert values to different units such as °Brix, °Baumé, °API etc..

Dosing of additives

The correct conversion of the soft drink recipe depends on the precise dosing of ingredients and additives. On the one hand, this has a direct influence on product quality and, on the other hand, it also guarantees efficient handling of cost-intensive raw materials.

Our expertise in the field

Due to their low conductivity, it is necessary to use highly accurate flowmeters to dose additives, such as sweeteners, flavors or colors.

Efficient phase separation

No more guessing: From now on, you know exactly what's in your pipes. Sensors for phase separation enable exact detection of the phase transitions between end products, discharge and cleaning media or the degree of contamination in the respective medium.

Our expertise in the field

Our optical sensors for precise inline color measurement in liquids detect even the slightest color changes. You can see whether and in what quality the product, cleaning agent or rinsing water are in the pipe.

  • Use OUSAF22, an optical sensor for precise inline color measurement in liquids in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum.
