AseptiCAL™ Mathematical Modeling Software

AseptiCAL™ Predicts the temperature of the fastest moving particle in an aseptic processing system

AseptiCAL™ software is an advanced finite difference based mathematical modeling package for aseptic process development of low acid and high acid foods with or without discrete particulates. The program is divided into four modules to accommodate 3-D Particulates, 2-D Particulates, 1-D Particulates and Homogenous Products.

Features & Benefits

  • Simulation with an accurate model is a requirement for filing low acid particulate process with FDA
  • Verifies the sizing calculations of the aseptic processing system and reduces the time in new product development during the research stage
  • Reduces production costs in the event of a deviation by analyzing product holds safely and accurately
  • Can be applied to product quality, operational expenses and throughput
  • Predicts the temperature of the fastest moving particle in an aseptic processing system
  • Calculates the hold tube length for a scheduled F0-value
  • Optimizes the aseptic processing time and temperature

AseptiCAL™ Calculates:

  1. The “worst” case particulate FZTref value
  2. Cook value and integrated lethality (FS value)
  3. The hold tube length
  4. The product volume flow rate
  5. The product process temperature.

AseptiCAL™ simulated center temperatures of the fastest moving particle and its accumulated lethality values in a typical aseptic process for multiphase foods:

  • Modeling various geometry of food particles, such as 3-D slab, cylindrical, spherical and other odd geometry
  • Calculate the “worst” case particulate, FZTref value & Log Reduction number
  • Calculate the hold tube length for a scheduled F0 value

Coating Solutions

Innovative coating solutions for evenly and thoroughly breading and battering everything from meat and seafood to vegetables

Truth be told – perfectly-coated food can result in a divine culinary creation. Achieving well-battered or evenly-breaded food products can be tricky, though.

It takes more than finesse, good intentions, and a pre-dusting of luck. You need tried-and-true coating machinery that’s backed by the service, support, and know-how of an industry-leading company.

JBT – and our Stein & alco coating solutions – certainly fit that tall order. In fact, we’ve been helping food producers like you successfully create diverse, delicious breaded and battered animal- and plant-based items since 1955. That’s when we brought the first commercial breading machine to market.

We understand that the food business is hyper-competitive and caters to constantly-changing demands – so food processors must adapt to keep pace. They rely on us to be able to develop, grow, and evolve their coated products offerings.

JBT’s coating equipment is now so trusted that it’s become a staple of many multinational fast food and convenience food production. These use cases underscore how our coating machinery provides high-capacity, extremely-reliable, and innovative solutions for a variety of food processors worldwide.

Now envision a JBT battering or breading machine in your facility, producing excellent coated products while streamlining your operations and improving your business.

A Legacy of Innovation

Given that we invented and introduced to the market the very first commercial coating machine, it’s probably no surprise that JBT also led the way in other relevant coating advancements. In case you’re keeping track, here are some key industry firsts:

  • First commercially-successful automated conveyorized breading applicator
  • First breading applicator to run heavy flour-style coatings
  • First hydraulically-powered breading machines for improved reliability
  • First batter applicator designed to run tempura-style batters
