Milk Production Line and Factory Setup

A milk processing line is a dairy system designed to receive, standardize, homogenize, pasteurize, cool, and package drinking milk. The process ensures food safety, consistent composition, and extended shelf life under refrigerated conditions.

Precise control of separation (for standardization), homogenization pressure, pasteurization temperature–time, and rapid cooling is essential for product quality and safety.

Main raw material is raw milk. Optional additives include vitamins. Core equipment consists of storage tanks, separators, homogenizers, plate pasteurizers, coolers, filling machines, and labeling systems, plus CIP.

The Industrial Department supports new investors establishing a milk processing plant and existing plant owners requiring repair, overhaul, capacity expansion, or automation. Projects may start from an empty site or from an operating facility needing technical upgrading.

Engineering, machinery supply or manufacturing, installation, commissioning, and technical support can be provided for projects in Iran, Iraq, Kurdistan Region, Afghanistan, and other regional markets under defined contractual scopes.

Production Line Overview

The milk line is an integrated dairy process. Capacity is determined during engineering (typical ranges 500–5000 L/h or higher). The process sequence is: milk reception and storage, separation and standardization, homogenization, pasteurization, cooling, filling, coding, and labeling.

Main machinery includes storage tanks (5000–20000 L), separator (1000–5000 L/h), homogenizer (1000–5000 L/h), plate pasteurizer (500–5000 L/h), filling machine (2000–12000 bottles/h), and labeler (2000–6000 bottles/h).

Supporting infrastructure covers electrical power, steam, process water, refrigeration, and hygienic building design. Manpower is typically 8–15 persons per shift.

Products

The line can produce pasteurized milk with different fat levels (e.g., full-fat, low-fat) in bottles or other packaging formats.

Raw Materials for Milk Factory

Main material is raw milk. Optional additives include vitamins A and D.

Sahi Rasa For Factories raw material

Support can be examined for projects in Iran, Iraq, Kurdistan Region (Erbil, Sulaymaniyah, Duhok), Baghdad, Basra, Mosul, Afghanistan (Kabul, Herat, Mazar-e-Sharif), Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Syria, Oman, Jordan, Turkey, Armenia, and Georgia.

Manufacturing Process

  1. Milk Reception and Storage – Raw milk is received, tested, and stored in insulated tanks.
  2. Separation and Standardization – Fat content is adjusted to the target level.
  3. Homogenization – High-pressure homogenization improves stability and mouthfeel.
  4. Pasteurization – Milk is heated to 72–75 °C for the required holding time and rapidly cooled.
  5. Filling and Labeling – Milk is filled into bottles, coded, and labeled.
  6. Cold Storage – Finished product is stored under refrigeration until distribution.

Machinery & Equipment

  • Storage Tanks – Receive and hold raw milk.
  • Separator – Standardizes fat content.
  • Homogenizer – Reduces fat globule size.
  • Plate Pasteurizer – Ensures food safety.
  • Filling Machine and Labeler – Package and identify the product.

Support is available for design, manufacturing or procurement, installation, commissioning, repair, overhaul, refurbishment, automation, and spare parts.

Factory Layout & Building Requirements

Typical areas: milk reception, processing hall, cold storage, packaging, utilities, laboratory, and staff facilities. Hygienic zoning is essential.

Utilities

  • Electricity: 380 V three-phase, 80–250 kW
  • Steam: 200–600 kg/h
  • Water: 10–30 m³/day
  • Refrigeration

Turnkey Factory Setup
