V-Tork in the Pharmaceutical and Food Processing Industry

Both the pharmaceutical and food processing industries operate under strict hygiene and quality standards, where precision and reliability are paramount. V-Tork actuators meet these demands by providing accurate control over valves in hygienic environments, ensuring that processes comply with regulatory standards such as GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) in pharmaceuticals and HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) in food processing.

In pharmaceutical manufacturing, V-Tork actuators control valves in critical processes such as the mixing of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), sterilisation, and clean-in-place (CIP) systems. The actuators' precision is essential for maintaining the correct dosage of ingredients and ensuring that production processes remain sterile and free from contamination. For instance, V-Tork actuators are used to regulate the flow of sterile water and solvents in the production of injectable drugs, where even the smallest deviation in valve control can affect product quality and safety.

In food processing, V-Tork actuators are used to automate valves that control the flow of ingredients such as milk, water, oils, and other liquids. They are also integral to processes such as pasteurisation, fermentation, and packaging, where maintaining consistent control over temperature, pressure, and flow rates is essential for product safety and quality. The actuators’ robust construction and hygienic design make them suitable for use in environments where frequent cleaning and sterilisation are required.

V-Tork actuators also contribute to energy efficiency and process optimisation by integrating with control systems that allow for real-time monitoring and adjustment of production parameters. This helps manufacturers reduce waste, lower energy consumption, and improve overall production efficiency while ensuring compliance with stringent industry standards.
