Product catalog summary
Overview of FMT Pasteurisation Technology
FMT is a prominent company in the pasteurisation industry, with a global presence of over a hundred pasteurisers. Their extensive product range includes solutions for pasteurising, heating, and cooling cycles for both glass and plastic containers, with a production capacity of up to 150,000 containers per hour. FMT machines are recognized for their user-friendliness, low maintenance, energy efficiency, and effective control of pasteurisation units (UP) through the ACSPU system.
Process Control
FMT pasteurisers are equipped with an industrial PC for precise control and adjustment of process parameters. A dynamic diagram provides real-time monitoring of heat treatment phases, while a mimic diagram shows the status of functional devices and consumption metrics. All process details are recorded for future reference, and format changes can be swiftly executed via a receipt menu. Remote connection via modem allows for distant evaluation and intervention on the control software.
Automatic Control System of Pasteurising Units (ACSPU)
The ACSPU system developed by FMT ensures high-quality heat treatment and energy savings by controlling the UP during pasteurising, heating, and cooling phases, maintaining the correct number of UP regardless of line operation status.
Thermic Cycle
FMT emphasizes both mechanical and heat treatment quality. Samples are tested in FMT laboratories to determine the exact heat exchange coefficient. The process involves water sprayed at different temperatures along the pasteuriser tunnel, with easy maintenance and assembly of distribution pipes.
Main Conveyor
The modular mat conveyor system provides stability and reduces maintenance. It allows for versatile product handling on one or two levels, with independent gearmotors for each mat, ensuring smooth and safe product transfer between conveyors.
Modular Configuration
FMT pasteurisers can be configured with one or two tunnels, made entirely of stainless steel. The modular design allows for lengths from 8 to 40 meters, accommodating various productivity and space requirements. Insulated doors and covers minimize heat dispersion.
Dynamic Transfer
FMT's dynamic transfer system facilitates the movement of products between conveyors and pasteuriser mats, preventing stoppages and maintaining product temperature control, especially in hot filling lines.
Introduction
FMT specializes in high-tech machinery for the food and beverage industry, offering adaptable solutions for cooling and heating systems for containers. These systems can be installed at various points in the production line to prevent stoppages.
Specifications
The systems are designed for both hot and cold filling lines, as well as ambient temperature filling lines. The heat treatment is tailored to the specific product, although the core construction features remain consistent across models. Special solutions are available to reduce energy and water consumption, particularly in hot filling lines.
Procedures and Recommendations
Installation can occur at the entry or exit of the pasteurization tunnel to avoid production halts. For hot filling lines, the system prevents bottles from remaining at high temperatures for extended periods before cooling.
Technological Advancements
FMT has developed comprehensive solutions for automating packaging processes, positioning itself as a key technological partner in the food and beverage market. The company is capable of engineering and adapting its products to meet diverse market demands.
Contact Information
FMT srl is located in Riccò, Parma, Italy, with a sales department in Lemignano di Collecchio, Parma, Italy. Contact details include phone and fax numbers, as well as an email address and website.

Food Machinery&Technology Thermic Cycle FMT is not only characterized by the careful attention given to the manufacture of the mechanical parts but also to the special care that is paid to the quality of the heat treatment. Bottles and cans samples supplied by our customers are tested c/o our laboratories in order to test the exact heat exchange coefficient. The testing equipment permits in fact the realization of a complete thermic treatment of the packed products. The process parameters are controlled by a computer that records them and then uses them in the elaboration of thermic treatment...

High-tech Machines for Food and Beverage Industry Main Conveyor Convoyeur principal The modular mat conveyor system permits a considerable steadiness of the product (both for bottles and cans) making the functioning extremely simple and reducing considerably the maintenance operations. The product handling is made on one or two levels (decks) placed inside the tunnel divided in two parts. Each mat is controlled by an independent gearmotor – the system becomes therefore extremely versatile and grants the possibility to make partial production if required, by simply arresting one of the mat. All...

Food Machinery&Technology Modular configuration Our pasteurisers can be composed of one or two tunnels matched on a same deck or on two decks. The structure – entirely made in stainless steel – is composed of modular elements with variable length and reaching a max. 7 meters width. The total length of the tunnel can vary from 8 up to 40 meters. Many different requests from our customers can be satisfied especially in terms of productivity and room availability. The access to the internal part of the tunnel is made easier through lateral double doors – on each side of the tunnel and on each level....

High-tech Machines for Food and Beverage Industry Dynamic Transfer Trasferimento Dinamico The dynamic transfer of the products from the conveyors to the pasteuriser/cooler/heater mat (and vice versa) is for FMT an already well established achievement used for many projects. The system is available both for glass containers and for cans. It can be installed both at the entry and at the exit of the pasteuriser (thus avoiding the stoppage of containers on passage plates at the production end). The system – if used on hot filling lines – prevents the bottles from being stopped on fixed transferring...
