Agitation Systems for Syrups and Soft Drink Concentrates

Overview

The stirring systems for soft drink syrups and concentrates are sets of industrial equipment designed to ensure the complete dissolution and homogeneous mixing of sugars, flavors and liquid or solid additives. The application of a Vertical Agitator, for example, acts directly on breaking the resistance of viscous fluids, ensuring a standardized syrup that is completely free of decantation at the bottom of the reservoir.

With 15 years in the industrial agitation and mixing solutions market, Agimix develops complete projects that meet the rigorous sanitary requirements of the industrial mixing industry. drinks. The preparation of simple syrup and compound syrup requires precise control of flow and shear, a scenario where the integration of a High shear pump becomes essential for the breaking of lumps and the efficient recirculation of the entire production process.

For volumes of up to 10,000 liters, we provide Industrial Process Tanks and Reservoirs fully integrated with our mixers, developed to achieve maximum performance and durability. In larger-scale plants, such as large bottling plants, our agitation equipment is custom-sized to operate in the reservoirs that the customer already has, ensuring the same efficiency in homogenization of concentrates.

Investing in cutting-edge technology means reducing batch time and optimizing your factory's operating costs. Our industrial mixers for syrups are built with advanced engineering, providing high performance that increases the final quality of your soft drink and avoids financial losses due to incomplete dissolution of sugars.

Benefits and advantages

Complete Dissolution of Sugars

The integration of a Vertical Agitator guarantees homogeneous mixing, avoiding the accumulation of solids at the bottom of the tank.

Lump Removal

The use of the High shear pump acts directly on the breakdown of lumps during the recirculation of the process.

Energy Efficiency

Our equipment is developed with advanced engineering to reduce energy consumption while maintaining high operational performance.

Sanitary Adequacy

Built in stainless steel with a polished finish, the systems prevent contamination and facilitate CIP cleaning in the beverage industry.

Customized Projects

We design the agitation solution ideal for tanks of up to 10,000 liters or for adaptation to large reservoirs already existing in your plant.

Frequently asked questions

Direct answers to the most common questions about this equipment and its application.

What is a stirring system for soft drink syrups?

A syrup stirring system is a set of equipment focused on dissolving sugars and mixing additives homogeneously. It uses components such as the Vertical Agitator to ensure that the syrup reaches the correct density and viscosity without suffering decantation.

How to avoid the formation of lumps when preparing simple syrup?

The best way to avoid agglomerations is to use a High shear pump in the tank's recirculation line. This equipment breaks down lumps instantly, forcing the fluid through a rotor and stator system that guarantees the total dissolution of solids.

Does Agimix supply large tanks for beverage plants?

Agimix manufactures Industrial Process Tanks and Reservoirs with a maximum capacity of up to 10,000 liters. For higher volumes, very common in large beverage industries, we supply and size only the agitation system, which will be perfectly installed in the reservoir that the customer already has.

What is the recommended material for soft drink concentrate mixers?

The mandatory material for these applications is AISI 304 or 316L stainless steel, due to the strict sanitary requirements of the sector. This material receives specific polishing to prevent the accumulation of bacteria and withstand the natural acidity of beverage concentrates.

What is the difference between simple syrup and compound syrup when stirring?

The simple syrup is the initial mixture of water and sugar, requiring high turbulence for rapid dissolution, while the compound syrup receives the extracts and aromas, requiring more controlled agitation for homogenization without loss of volatile compounds. Our equipment has frequency inverters to serve both phases with precision.

Do Agimix shakers consume a lot of electricity?

No, the equipment is developed with advanced engineering to drastically reduce energy consumption. The correct sizing of the Vertical Agitator impellers maximizes flow efficiency, delivering high operational performance with optimized motors.

Is it possible to integrate the agitation system into the CIP cleaning process?

Yes, all of our sanitary mixers are designed without stagnation zones, allowing full integration with CIP (Clean in Place) cleaning systems. This guarantees quick and safe hygiene between different batches of soft drink production.

How do I size the correct agitator for my beverage factory?

Correct sizing depends on batch volume, syrup viscosity and desired mixing time. With 15 years on the market, the Agimix engineering team evaluates all these parameters to design the most efficient and profitable agitation equipment for your specific needs.
