How flowmeter-controlled mixing works
Precision, control, and real-time adjustments
Flowmeter-controlled mixing replaces traditional volumetric dosing and manual monitoring with a more precise, closed-loop system. Each component—water, syrup, or CO₂—is metered and controlled individually, allowing for real-time adjustments to maintain tight tolerances even at variable production speeds or pressures.
At Ferrum Group, our solutions can be implemented in various ways:
- Inline blending and carbonation systems feeding directly into your filling lines
- Batch mixing units with integrated pressure management
- Systems equipped with CO₂ dissolution modules for accurate carbonation
Employing sophisticated control systems alongside high-precision mass or electromagnetic flowmeters, we ensure that your product composition remains consistent across batches and formats. Inline blending minimizes tank requirements, enhances oxygen control, and reduces processing time. This is ideal for applications like inline beer carbonation before the bright beer tank or blending flavored waters and syrups to achieve exact ratios.
Our systems seamlessly integrate with your existing setup, whether upstream with a bright beer tank or downstream with your filler and filtration systems. Furthermore, our flowmeter mixing equipment complies with applicable ASME & PED approvals, ensuring you meet all regulatory and operational standards.
