Milk Powder

Need to safeguard your milk powder and baby food quality?

With Russell Finex and local experts Advanced Processing Systems, you can increase efficiency, ensure safety, and control the quality of your dairy products.

The Russell Finex Solution

Russell Finex and local experts Advanced Processing Systems bring extensive knowledge in milk powder separation, whether skimmed, fat-filled, or whey powders, and a deep understanding of the costs associated with agglomerated product, contamination, or downtime due to nozzle blockages in driers during spray drying.

The Russell Compact Sieve is the most advanced and reliable high-performance sieving solution for milk powder products. Used worldwide by leading manufacturers, this hygienic screener has fewer contact parts and a fully crevice-free design. This meets strict international quality standards without compromising productivity.

The equipment to address these issues includes the range of Russell Finex vibratory sieves. Unique high-performance vibratory screeners also increases productivity, improves screening accuracy, and increases operator safety.

And when combined with the Russell Finex Ultrasonic mesh deblinding system it allows you to sieve on finer screens and further improve your product quality.

Video Demonstrations

Below are videos focused on screening milk powders. Feel free to ask to see other videos relevant to your business.

Finex 22™ with Russell RotoBlock™ removes oversize and agglomerated powders from milk powder.

In this demonstration video, the infant formula milk powder is screened by a Finex 22™ with a Russell RotoBlock™. The RotoBlock™ is a simple device used to help break down agglomerated powders, to ensure maximum product yield. As the powder is fed onto the mesh using the gyratory action of the sieve, the RotoBlock™ rotates on the mesh removing fine particles of the agglomerated milk powder, allowing for all the formula to be separated from the unwanted hard agglomerates. View the Finex 22™ with Russell RotoBlock™ video.

Case Study: Rerooted Organic increases efficiency with the Russell Finex 22” Sieve

Rerooted Organic is a low-impact organic milk producer in the U.K. The business strongly focuses on sustainability and carries out every step of plant milk production, bottling, distribution, and retail. Unlike most plant-milk producers, Rerooted Organic supplies all its milk in glass bottles. The bottles are returned, washed, sterilized, and reused as part of the production loop. The circular business also relies on renewable energy to power its production. You can read the full in-depth case study here.
