Gentle handling of raw materials for tea blends and flavored teas
When producing tea blends, it is essential to handle the delicate raw tea material with care. AZO combines suitable feeding, conveying, dosing, and mixing systems into a seamless process solution—from raw material feeding to filling. This ensures that tea, flavorings, and fruit additives can be processed reliably without unnecessarily compromising product quality.
Gently measure and dispense tea
Suitable discharge stations are available for goods in bags and big bags. Vacuum weighing systems gently convey the raw materials to the mixers with high precision. After the mixing process, specially designed vacuum conveying systems enable the finished tea blend to be temporarily stored in silos without breakage or segregation, or to be fed directly into packaging and filling machines.
Making Flavored Teas to the Gram
For flavored teas, base teas, flavorings, and fruit additives can be dispensed automatically and with gram-level precision. The AZO COMPONENTER® collects the individual components in a bulk container and transfers the finished batch to the container mixer. This ensures a reproducible recipe and supports the automated production of various tea blends.
Flexible feeding and transparent processes
After mixing, the bulk material containers can be directed to the respective filling lines and emptied via feeding stations. The AZO process control and visualization system controls and monitors the entire plant. Comprehensive documentation, along with tracking and tracing of the manufacturing process, ensures transparency across the individual production steps.
