Detailed Production Process of Automatic Milk Powder Production Line

The production process of the automatic milk powder production line is scientific, rigorous and continuous, covering four major links: raw material processing, batching and mixing, filling and packaging, and post-processing and palletizing. Each link is closely connected to ensure the quality and safety of milk powder products. The first major link is raw material processing, which is the foundation of milk powder production. The raw materials of milk powder mainly include milk powder base, rice, soybeans, Peanut, Seasam, wheat, corn, sugar, salt and other materials. First, the collected raw materials need to be cleaned to remove impurities such as metal, stone, plastic and dust, so as not to damage the subsequent equipment and affect the quality of milk powder. Then, the cleaned raw materials are sent to the coarse crusher for pre-crushing; the coarse crusher adopts a cutting type structure, which can quickly crush large pieces of raw materials into small pieces of 1-5 centimeters. The coarse crusher has strong versatility and can also be used to crush spice, tea, flour, coffee, tobacco, chemical, mushroom, bone, seeds and other materials. After pre-crushing, the raw materials are sent to the grinding link; according to the required fineness of milk powder, different types of grinding machines can be selected. For example, if ordinary fineness milk powder is needed, a universal grinder or Hammer Mill can be used; if ultra-fine milk powder is needed, an Ultrafine Grinder, airflow pulverizer or Vacuum Mill can be used. The cryogenic grinding machine is suitable for occasions that require high-quality milk powder, because it can grind raw materials at low temperature, avoiding the damage of nutrients caused by high temperature, and maintaining the natural taste and nutritional value of milk powder. In addition, other types of grinding machines can also be used for raw material grinding after simple adjustment, such as herb grinder, Industrial Weed Grinder, small grinder machine, Air cooled crusher, cassava grinding machine, dry ginger grinding machine, licorice grinding machine, black pepper grinder, Dry Fruit Powder Grinder Machine, Dust Grinder, vibrating pulverizer, turbo grinder, dust collector grinder, Electric Grinder and Dry Grinder. Among them, the 200KG grinder and 500KG Grinder are suitable for medium and large-scale dairy enterprises, with high production efficiency, which can grind 200KG and 500KG of raw materials per hour respectively; the small grinder machine is suitable for small-scale enterprises or laboratories, with small volume, easy movement and simple operation. Most grinding machines are equipped with high-speed motors, which drive the grinding disc or grinding hammer to rotate at high speed, and the raw materials are crushed and ground into fine powder under the action of impact, extrusion and shearing. During the grinding process, the dust collector grinder plays an important role, which can collect the dust generated during the grinding process in time, avoid environmental pollution, and also prevent the dust from entering the operator’s body and endangering health. Some grinding machines, such as the ones used for grinding cannabis, have similar structures to the milk powder raw material grinding machine, but they need to be adjusted according to the characteristics of the material to ensure the grinding effect. After grinding, the raw material powder is sent to the batching and mixing link. The second major link is batching and mixing. The batching and mixing module adopts a high-precision electronic weighing system and an automatic control system. According to the preset formula, the system automatically weighs and feeds various raw materials (such as milk powder base, sugar, salt, nutritional additives, etc.) to ensure the accuracy of the formula ratio, thereby improving the product performance and stability. The mixing machine adopts a high-speed stirring structure, which can fully mix the various raw materials evenly, ensuring that the nutritional components of each part of the milk powder are consistent. The mixed materials are transported through a fully sealed conveying system, which effectively prevents dust overflow and avoids material pollution. The third major link is filling and packaging, which is the key link to ensure the hygiene, safety and shelf life of milk powder. This link is divided into two forms: bagged production line and canned/bottled production line. The bagged production line is usually an automatic powder vertical bag filling and packaging production line, which can automatically complete the whole process of bag making, measurement, filling, coding, bag cutting and counting. The equipment adopts an integrated control system of PLC, servo motor and touch screen, which has the characteristics of high-precision speed regulation and intelligent operation. The modular design of the filling head is easy to replace, which can adapt to materials with large differences in fluidity (such as milk powder, rice flour, washing powder, dyes, etc.). The sealing temperature and action time are independently adjustable, and it can be adapted to inflation (such as nitrogen, carbon dioxide) or exhaust functions to extend the shelf life of milk powder. The packaging speed is usually between 15 and 70 bags per minute, and the packaging accuracy can reach a deviation of ±0.5% to ±2% according to the weight range. The canned/bottled production line is usually an automatic powder filling production line, which integrates functions such as powder filling, sealing, capping, labeling and coding. The core filling equipment uses a weighing sensor to real-time monitor the weight of materials, and the system can automatically adjust the filling speed and dosage to ensure filling accuracy. The subsequent links are equipped with automatic capping machine, electromagnetic induction aluminum foil sealing machine, vertical round bottle labeling machine and small character coding machine to complete container sealing and marking. The material contact parts of the filling equipment are made of stainless steel, which is easy to disassemble and clean, and meets the strict hygiene requirements of milk powder. The fourth major link is post-processing and palletizing. The filled and sealed products are automatically cartoned and sealed by the cartoning machine and carton sealing machine, and then neatly palletized by the palletizer to finally output the finished products. This module realizes the automatic sorting and output of packaged finished products, greatly reducing manual labor and improving production efficiency. In the entire production process, the control system plays a leading role; the control system adopts a PLC touch screen man-machine interface, which is easy and intuitive to operate. The operator can set and store production parameters (such as formula ratio, filling volume, packaging speed, etc.) through the panel, and the system is also equipped with a fault prompt function, which can timely remind the operator of equipment faults and fault causes, helping to quickly eliminate faults and ensure the stable operation of the production line.
