Benefits to you
Specific configuration of the product treatment system

Thanks to special Krones measuring and configuration programs, you will be provided with customised heating systems which are based on precise data and exactly adjusted to suit the characteristics of your products.
Modular design

Thanks to its flexible design, the Krones heat exchanger is available in two sizes: one compact variant for low outputs and one high-end design for medium to high output ranges.
Gentle product treatment

Our special tube modules with cross-corrugated section enable a quick heat transfer and, at the same time, high recovery efficiency. As the mixture phase quantities are reduced to a minimum, the required heat exchanger surface and thereby the thermal stress, as well as the pressure and product loss are reduced as well.
Reliable cleaning

Thanks to a design with reduced dead space, all product contacting surfaces can easily be cleaned.
Comprehensive concepts for process technology

In addition to heat exchangers, Krones also offers compact and space-saving units for product deaeration, heating and product mixing, as well as process water sterilisation and CIP/SIP systems.
