9780849305092: Mechanisation and Automation in Dairy Technology

Synopsis

With contributions from a wide range of international experts from both the industrial and academic sectors, this book offers balanced coverage of a topical area. Mechanisation and Automation in Dairy Technology covers the main sectors of dairy technology, their basic science and manufacture, mechanisation and automation, and quality control.

It introduces the basic principles of automation, such as objectives, levels and tasks of automation systems, operation and programming of control systems, use of automation in HACCP applications, and designing a process line. The following chapters deal with the individual sectors of the dairy industry, examining the special problems that have been, and remain to be, solved in conversion from manual to mechanised operations. The book also shows how the principles of automation can then be applied or adapted to make the mechanised process interactive within its component parts.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This volume covers the main sectors of dairy technology, their basic science and manufacture, their mechanisation and automation, and their quality control.

Like any major and highly developed sector of food manufacturing, the dairy foods industry is now highly mechanised, from raw material production through to processing and product manufacture. This book has been written to show the extent and advantages of mechanisation across the range of dairy technology, and to explain the principles and rationale of introducing automated systems. In this way, authors demonstrate how combinations of state–of–the–art machinery and dedicated control systems bring to the dairy industry increased efficiency, higher quality and consistency, and opportunities for product innovation through its technological base.

The volume is directed at food scientists and technologists, quality assurance personnel, analytical chemists, microbiologists, and consultants in automation and expert systems.
