MachinePoint supplies storage systems for the beverage, dairy and agro food industries. Storage systems can consist of storage tanks – for initial product material storing, aseptic storage tanks for aseptic processing, and intermediate storage tanks to store products at different stages within the different processes of the production line.
Our storage systems range from the very basic; with manual sterilization and tank control, to systems completely automated and controlled by a micro processor. The latter guarantees strict quality control; the loading and unloading is performed under sterile conditions; this ensures that there is no need to re pasteurize the stored product, hence retaining the quality of the product.
For production lines that are completely automated, storage within the different processes needs to be automated as well. MachinePoint develops storage systems and storage tanks that can be completely integrated into the current production line. Storage systems can also be combined with mixing systems, clean in place (CIP) SIP, product recovery systems, etc.
Our automated clean in place and sterilize in place (CIP SIP), our sterilizing systems and the strict pressure control included in all of our systems makes them very secure for the food industry.

Essential issues on storage tanks
They can be made from a variety of materials and designs. Among them are those made of carbon steel, fiberglass, and polyethylene. Additionally, there are single-wall storage tanks designed for standard applications, as well as insulated tanks that maintain a constant internal temperature. Other types include agitated tanks, which allow for the mixing of contents, and aseptic tanks, ideal for applications requiring strict sanitary conditions. These tanks can be classified according to their design, such as vertical or horizontal cylindrical tanks, conical tanks, among others.
Vegetables should be stored in storage tanks with temperature and humidity control. It is important to maintain a constant temperature and appropriate relative humidity to preserve freshness and prevent decomposition of the vegetables during storage.
Storage tanks are ideal for containing a wide variety of liquids and chemicals, from water and oils to industrial chemicals. They are also used to store food products such as milk, juices, and wines.
A storage tank functions as a sealed container designed to securely hold liquids for extended periods. Tanks may be equipped with agitation systems to keep liquid mixtures homogeneous, as well as temperature control systems to ensure optimal storage conditions.
