1 TARIFF BUTTER HOMOGENIZATION MACHINE TECHNICAL FIELD The invention enables the production of frozen butter with minimum labor, minimum equipment deformation, and homogenization in minimum time, and also the 5 used after homogenization. Butter that allows equipment to be cleaned in place without disassembling it. It is related to the homogenization machine. PREVIOUS TECHNIQUE Frozen butter homogenization is a process used in butter production. This process ensures that the frozen butter has a homogeneous structure. This is done to ensure that when butter is cooled or When frozen, the fat crystals it contains become large and irregular, and this condition, This causes undesirable changes in the texture and consistency of the product. The process of homogenizing frozen butter usually involves special homogenization equipment. This is accomplished using equipment that breaks down frozen butter and reduces the product to 15%. to have a smoother consistency and thus obtain a homogeneous structure provides. The current technique requires a staff member / operator to reduce the size of the frozen butter. Blocks of butter are manually cut and reduced in size via a spiral. It is compressed and kneaded in the unit and transferred to the homogenization unit and 20 From here, it is homogenized and sent to the packaging unit. As mentioned above, in the current technique, blocks of butter are formed manually. The process of breaking it down and then transporting it to the screw conveyor unit results in both time losses and... This creates a need for more staff. Also, the butter is broken down into smaller pieces. Occupational safety issues such as operator injuries caused by cutting tools used in the process 25 Risks arise. Also during the conveying process to the screw unit. Product losses due to operators dropping butter and butter during transportation Hygiene problems arise during the process due to external environmental conditions. Screw 2 The screw conveyors used in the unit both compress and knead the butter. It conveys the liquid to the homogenization unit. However, due to the current infrastructure... Frozen butter blocks are overloaded on the shafts and screws in the screw conveyor unit. The shaft and other elements that act as bearings by applying the load deform under excessive load. This causes it to happen. 5 Also, a homogenization unit used for post-production homogenization process and The screw unit is being disassembled and manually assembled by operators. It is being cleaned. However, this situation prevents effective cleaning and also... This leads to an increase in manual labor in the food equipment in question. Clean-in-place (CIP) cleaning is extremely hygienic, and this system is used in food production. Its use in the sector is extremely essential, but this is the case in the current structures. It is being ignored. Furthermore, in currently used systems, the butter moves through the screw conveyor unit while being placed on a bearing. Due to the strain on the unit, the butter quickly reaches the homogenization unit. It cannot be delivered. In this case, both time is lost and the butter spoils over time. 15 It begins to melt as it heats up. Especially when the butter's temperature rises above 10 degrees. In this case, the final products coming out of the homogenization unit may have morphological and structural defects. Disorders occur. Considering this situation... Checking the temperature of the butter entering the homogenization unit. It is necessary. In addition, in existing systems, there is a 20 cm gap between the homogenizing and screw conveyor units. Product leaks are being observed. In this situation, the existing systems need to be effective. This is due to the lack of a leak-proof seal. Eliminating these aforementioned problems. a structure applied or used in current technology for removal It is not available. There are 25 issues encountered in the homogenization process of frozen butter using the current technique. The problems can be summarized as follows: manual cutting and transport of butter blocks, screw conveyor unit. The equipment deforms quickly, and general system cleaning is done manually. This is done in a way that increases the temperature of the butter, resulting in a standard product temperature. many problems such as product losses due to unavailability and leak-proof sealing issues disadvantages are observed. 30 solutions have been proposed to eliminate these disadvantages. No such structure has been identified in the research conducted. 3 https: / / www.youtube.com / watch?v=-SKrLuQl1bY https: / / www.youtube.com / watch?v=oda3TcE2gq4 As can be seen in the two links above, the current technique involves blocks of butter.
