Dairy automation
Dairy processing puts demands on a control system that most other sectors do not. Pasteurisation is a public health control point with a legally significant time and temperature relationship, cleaning has to be validated and recorded, and cultured products are made by recipe. The articles below cover the parts of a dairy plant where the control design carries the most weight.
Each guide is written for engineers and plant teams planning or running automation in a dairy environment. They connect to the dairy industry page and the services Metromotion Controls delivers across pasteurisation, CIP, batch control and process loop tuning.
