UVMILK milk filters for dairies
The production of dairy products in Russia continues to grow, following long-term trends. In dairy and milk canning factories, ice cream and cheese factories, each stage of the production process is distinguished by its own technological features. At each stage of production proper filtration is important: obtaining raw materials, processing semi-finished products, and even more so when bottling finished products.
Problems with filters of other manufacturers
- High load on milk purifiers and their frequent unloading
- Leakage of foam, burnt marks, and mechanical impurities in processed raw milk
- Extraneous aroma and taste in finished products
- Reduction of protein and fat content after filtration
- Re-contamination of the product due to deformation and rupture of filters
- Secondary raw materials prohibited for use in food production
- Losses of raw milk and fat content during multiple unloading of sludge
- Lumps of milk powder disrupt the consistency of the reconstituted product
Advantages of UVMILK filters
- Manufactured from virgin food grade polypropylene
- Patented variable density filter winding technology
- Strength and elasticity of the filter, preventing its deformation and splitting
- Special filter structure that allows fat globules to pass through
- Wide micron rating and compliance with stated micron rating
- Thermal resistance of filters allowing to work on hot products
- he highest possible mechanical cleaning today
- Wide range of filters with a resource from 500 liters to 500 tons
Benefits of using UVMILK filters
- Increasing the shelf life of milk and dairy products
- Guaranteed safe use in food production
- Stable production of planned volumes of dairy products
- Increased filter service life
- Preservation of milk fat content and protein after filtration
- Stable operation in hot and heated media
- Reducing the frequency of milk purifier unloading and protecting against breakdowns
- Pasteurized milk without burnt marks and foam
Extrusion production
UVMILK milk filters are manufactured using aerodynamic extrusion on machines that are independently assembled and modified by the company’s designers. In the process of inventing filters, the equipment went through several stages of improving design and functionality. We continue to develop innovative extrusion production technologies. The introduction of channels into the design of the polypropylene cartridge, in which there was a smooth transition from a large cross-section to a smaller one, made it possible to increase the level of milk purification, first to 5 microns, and then to 3 microns.

Steel filters for preliminary purification of milk
UVMILK steel pre-cleaning filters are installed at the receiving area and clean milk from large mechanical impurities over 50 microns in size, such as straw, sawdust, insects, due to the lattice structure through which milk passes freely, and large dirt particles are retained. The use of UVMILK steel filters allows dairies to quickly clean large volumes of milk and save money due to the virtually unlimited service life of the filter.
Thermally bonded filters for rough purification of milk
Thermally bonded UVMILK filters for coarse cleaning allow removing small contaminants larger than 10 microns from milk, whey and process water, such as dust, mechanical impurities, casein crumbs. High loads when passing large volumes of liquids dictate special requirements for the strength of filters. We use ultrasonic welding, which eliminates the possibility of filter rupture at the seams and repeated entry of dirt particles into milk and other liquids.
High efficiency UVMILK filters for fine purification of milk
Highly efficient UVMILK fine filters, thanks to a special structure of variable winding, retain mechanical impurities smaller than 5 microns, which reduces the QMAFAnM and acidity of raw milk. Highly efficient UVMILK fine filters are installed by dairy plants at the stages of receiving and preparing milk for pasteurization to improve technological properties. To eliminate burnt-on deposits and foam, such filters are also installed after the pasteurizer.

UVMILK extrusion filters for improved purification of milk
UVMILK extrusion filters with improved purification are designed to purify milk from microorganisms and the smallest mechanical impurities larger than 4 microns in size. A lower micron rating allows you to retain more mechanical impurities. By increasing the size of the filters and using a special winding technology, this type of filter has an increased service life, which is especially important when filtering heavily contaminated batches of milk.

UVMILK ultrafilters for ultrafine purification of milk
UVMILK ultra-fine filters provide maximum reduction of somatic cells in raw milk due to the patented SomaticStop technology and filtration fineness of 3 microns. Today, this is the highest possible degree of purification, which allows for optimal technological properties of milk during processing, preservation of taste and organoleptic properties and absence of sediment in bottled milk during storage.

Characteristics of UVMILK milk filters
Assembly of UVMILK milk filter
- Attach the filter element to the seat of the bottom cover.
- Place the silicone seal exactly into the groove of the lid.
- Connect the housing to the bottom cover with a clamp.
- Place the silicone seal along the top edge of the housing.
- Close the filter cover and secure it with a clamp.
- To connect to the line, use mating parts.
Economic justification
The dairy plant produces 50 tons of bottled milk daily, which is sent for sale to retail chains. When using only standard mesh filters on the production line, many tiny impurities remain in the milk, which precipitate after bottling. If stores return 10% of the batch once, the loss will be 2,500 bottles X 0.45 € = 1125 €. If the situation repeats itself many times, the store chain will terminate the supply contract.
The use of the UVMILK ULTRA20 milk filter on the bottling line allows you to ensure stable quality of bottled milk, protecting it from the smallest mechanical impurities from the raw milk and the production line. By investing 760 € at a time on filtration, you will perform final control purification of milk at bottling and avoid returns from the networks due to sedimentation. Filter payback period: about two days.
