Dairy processing requires stringent sanitary design and precise temperature control for food safety. Roben Manufacturing engineers food-grade insulated reactors for demanding dairy applications.
Why Choose Dairy Processing Food Reactors
Dairy products are highly perishable and require validated pasteurization, precise temperature control, and exceptional cleanability. 3-A Sanitary Standards govern dairy equipment design to ensure food safety.

Frequently Asked Questions
We provide finishes from standard mechanical polish through mirror electropolish. Common specifications include 32 Ra (0.8 µm) for general food, 20 Ra (0.5 µm) for dairy, and finer finishes for pharmaceutical-grade applications. All finishes are documented and verified.
Yes, we design and manufacture reactors to 3-A Sanitary Standards. Our 3-A compliant vessels include appropriate surface finishes, crevice-free construction, drainability, and other requirements specified in applicable 3-A standards.
304 and 316L stainless steel are standard FDA-compliant materials for food contact. We also use FDA-compliant gaskets, seals, and other components. All food contact materials are documented for regulatory compliance.
Yes, we design reactors with integrated CIP (Clean-In-Place) and SIP (Steam-In-Place) capability. This includes spray device mounting, complete surface coverage, self-draining construction, and appropriate steam distribution.
Lead times typically range from 14-22 weeks depending on size, complexity, and finish requirements. Mirror-polished, electropolished, or 3-A certified vessels may require additional time for surface finishing and documentation.
