The Liquid Manufacturing Plants are ideal tools for the pharmaceutical industry for the production of Oral Liquids. It is specially designed to take care of two critical factors which directly affect the quality of the Liquids. Minimum manual handling of Liquid.
Effective cleanness during manufacturing. Capacity ranges from 50 L to 20,000 L.
Needless to say, it also provides the benefits of the effective manpower utilization.
Liquid Manufacturing Plant consists : -
Sugar Melting Vessel
Pre-filtration unit
Syrup Manufacturing Vessel
Filtration unit
Storage Vessel
Control Panel
Product Piping
Working Platform
This system consists of a closed circuit manufacturing facility from feeding of Sugar / Water Phase to loading the Liquid
Filling Machine.
The Sugar and Water, are load with vacuum system or by mechanical system or manually.
The Sugar Syrup Vessel is supplied with high speed stirrer & electrical heating (In small model) / steam heating facility (In bigger size model) .The sugar syrup is prepared at required temperature & are transferred to Manufacturing Vessel by vacuum or by transfer pump.
The product during emulsion formation is recalculated through In-Line Homogenizer or Liquid Transfer Pump.( Optional Facility )
The Pump also discharges the product in the Storage Vessel.
The Storage Vessel is then taken to the filling area (if it is small capacity) and is connected to again Liquid Transfer Pump. Or Storage Vessel remains fixed (In bigger size) & pump transfer the Liquids in the float tank which is connected with filling machine.
The entire Plant can be operated by centralized operating panel by one operator.
Salient Features
The Plant is designed to be operated only by one operator and one helper.
All material transfers are done by vacuum or by transfer pumps.
All the vessels are CGMP (paint free construction)
The gaskets used are of silicon (food grade).
All contact parts are of S.S. 304 quality material (SS316 provided on demand) & finished to class 4B (Mirror) finish and are crevice free.
The entry of stirrer & high speed emulsifier are from top. In-line Emulsifier (as per customer choice) provided on demand.
All vessels are suitable for internal pressure of 1 Kg. / Sq. cm. and hence can be sterilized.
All pipes, pipe fittings and valves are of SS304 / SS316 (as per customer requirement) seamless quality, internally electro polished, with tri-clover ended joints.
Filter Press
Shree Bhagwati Machtech India Pvt. Ltd range of Filter Presses are used for wide range of applications by several industries like Pharma, bulk drugs, distilleries, beverages & other industries. There are more than 5,000 units supplied since last 35 years.

filtration area.
1) Horizontal Plate Type Filter Press
The unfiltered liquid is fed into the filter under positive pressure, where liquid travels in downwards direction and finds its way through opening on sides of the Filter Plates.
As the liquid pressure increases, the Filter media holds the foreign particles and allows only clear filtrate to pass through the central channel formed by interlocking pressure cups to the outlet. Filtration is continued until the cake holding capacity of the unit is reached or until the filtrate rate becomes too slow owing to cake resistance.
The Cartridge assembly consists of plates, perforated screens, spacers and fitter media. Interlocking spacers internally form single pipeline. The unfiltered liquid is centrally fed under pressure from bottom inlet. The liquids spreads out equally on each plate fitted with filter media. Solids remain on filter media and clear. filtrate flows through precisely made holes on sides of plates and collects in the shell, which then comes out through the outlet. In this process, solids are evenly distributed on each plate. The cake is then cleaned from the filter material and used again for filtration process.
Plate & Frame Type Filter Press is suitable for Kieselguhr / Sheet Filter for Coarse, polishing and Sterilizing filtration duties.
Filter Press constitutes of Fixed, Moving and Rocket body all of which are cladded with stainless steel sheets. All the joints are welded. The Fixed and Rocket body are connected with pipes, forming a self supporting chasis. Filter Plates, Frames and Moving body are Guided on chasis pipes.
With the Aid of change over plate, filter press can be divided in two sections for two Stage filtration.
