Ultrasonic Sieving Vanilla Powder

Farleygreene’s Sievmaster, Ultrasonic System enhances the throughput efficiency of fine vanilla powder used in the manufacture of food & beverage, skincare and nutraceutical products.

Check Sieving

Our customer is a leading manufacturer of vanilla and is committed to producing the highest quality powder to meet the rise in global demand.

Vanilla powder with its diverse application has become an essential ingredient in food & beverage products. Beyond the kitchen, vanilla powder has made its mark in the cosmetic and fragrance industry. Its natural aroma makes it an ideal addition to skincare, perfumes, and nutraceutical product manufacturing.

Our customer is committed to producing the highest quality vanilla powder to meet the rise in global demand, whilst adhering to the evolving industry requirements. Optimising the processing line is paramount when processing large volumes of raw materials, with the aim to improve efficiency and reduce waste.

Whilst sieving bulk vanilla powder, our client experienced clumps of product building on the mesh wires. This was leading to excessive product waste, premature deterioration of their mesh and prolonged stoppage time in the manufacturing process. They sought out our advice to find a Farleygreene solution to customise their sieve system to increase throughput and reduce waste.

  • Requirement

    Our customer sought a solution to help overcome the challenge of their fine vanilla powder product, forming clumps on their mesh rings, during the bulk sieving process.

    The customer requirement was to:
    • Reduce clumps in product
    • Reduce waste of good product
    • Optimise their throughput efficiency
    • Maintain high quality product

    Farleygreene collaborated closely with the vanilla manufacturer to assess their unique challenges and help provide a tailored solution to their requirement using a mixture of customer testing and our long-standing knowledge of sieving.

  • Solution

    We suggested implementing our Sievmaster Ultrasonic System, which is specifically designed to fit within most Sievmaster sieving machines providing a solution to deblind and fluidise their fine product so that it can be screened more efficiently.

    So how does this solution work so effectively? Ultrasonic sieves employ high-frequency vibrations to efficiently separate particles and increase flowability. When applied to the processing of vanilla powder, this technology ensures a consistent particle size distribution, resulting in a more uniform and refined product. Reduction of clumps or uneven textures helps enhance the overall quality, meeting the high standards demanded by our customer.

    We carried out tests on their product, with and without the ultrasonics, at our Farleygreene in-house test facility and achieved a favourable result. Keeping our client updated throughout the process and exchanging data, photos and videos to support our findings, in search of the most optimised solution.

  • Results

    Data collected in our testing room showed a dramatic increase in both overall efficiency and throughput. With the addition of ultrasonics achieving an overall throughput increase of up to 50% for vanilla powder – reducing processing time!

    Based on the recommendations from testing, this vanilla powder manufacturer has implemented the ultrasonic system into their production line. They managed to increase product yield for their vanilla powder and save time and money.

    This ultrasonic system is available with a variety of different options depending on your user requirements and is proving to be a game-changer in the sieving industry of fine products, both wet and dry.

    In similar tests carried out at Farleygreene with other more difficult products like rice flour, the throughput was increased dramatically from 144kg/h to 1542kg/h (a 10x increase)!

    Enhanced Efficiency
    Farleygreene Sievmaster Ultrasonic System significantly improved the efficiency of the vanilla powder sieving process due to faster and more accurate product separation of vanilla powder into the saleable and waste products. Resulting in increased throughput and reduced processing time.

    Improved Precision and Quality Control
    The mesh screen option selected and fine-tuned vibration settings allowed for precise control over particle size distribution, ensuring consistent quality.

    Flexibility and Adaptability
    The options available for our sieves offered this customer unparalleled flexibility in adapting to the specific needs of different coffee bean varieties and processing methods. Working alongside Farleygreene, this coffee manufacturer could easily tailor the sieving process to their desired specifications, accommodating various coffee bean sizes, densities, and characteristics.
