SMC solutions for brewery industry

We brew solutions for excellence

At SMC, we understand that brewing is not just an art; it’s a science that requires a deep understanding of both the processes and the structures involved. Whether you’re a seasoned engineer or new to the brewing industry, our expertise is here to guide you through the complexities of creating exceptional beer.  

Expert brewing solutions

The brewing process encompasses a myriad of steps, each demanding precision and energy efficiency. From fermentation to packaging, every phase is crucial in delivering a high-quality product. At SMC, we pride ourselves on our extensive industry experience and knowledge. Our team of trained experts is dedicated to providing tailored solutions that address the unique challenges faced by breweries.  

Sustainable, cost and energy-efficient brewery operations

We focus on enhancing uptime with fit-for-purpose products, optimizing energy consumption, and significantly reducing CO2 emissions. By partnering with us, you can lower your running costs while ensuring that your brewing process remains efficient and sustainable. Let us help you brew not just beer, but solutions that elevate your entire operation.

Storage, process and mixing

With an appropriate monitoring solution, all the variables such as fluid and air pressure and flow rate, tank temperature control, valve positioning and leaks can be under control at any time, making it possible to detect any anomaly beforehand and fix the problems prior to any failure.

Filling

It is essential to monitor the fluid pressure and flow. This way, it’s possible to avoid pressure drops from the air filter, as well as controlling changes due to leaks or a process out of limits. The control of these parameters has a direct impact on the final quality of the product and overall machine efficiency.

Pasteuriser

To guarantee the product meets the appropriate food safety standards, process parameters such as fluid flow, pressure and temperature must be under control. Process limits, leaks, and changes at critical points of the process must be targeted and monitored with suitable equipment.

Labelling

For consistent labelling, it is necessary to consider air pressure and flow, as well as the maintenance of any ioniser nozzles. If we have these parameters under control, we can monitor for labelling problems at an early stage before any errors occur.

De-palletising and palletising

With the correct monitoring of the parameters, we can detect errors such as loss of vacuum due to pad wear and blocked filters, pressure drops derived from filter air starvation, variations in air consumption due to leaks, and actuator position errors.
