Stainless steel milk receiving tank at a dairy intake point
Dairy Machinery

Milk Receiving Tank

A stainless steel tank for receiving and collecting fresh milk arriving from farms, holding it briefly before it moves to the production line or the next processing area. The design keeps the structure simple so the tank stays easy to operate, clean and maintain at an intake point that may be staffed by farm rather than plant personnel. Volumes run from 300L to 1500L, customised, with the shell available in SUS304 or SUS316L and built to food hygienic standard with no dead corner.

Specifications are configured per project. Send your drawing, capacity or duty requirement and the build will be confirmed in writing with the quotation.
Why It Works

Key Benefits

Gives the intake point a defined collection vessel so milk from several farms is gathered in one controlled place

No dead corner build lets the tank be cleaned between batches without disassembly

Volume from 300L to 1500L matches the quantity arriving in a single collection rather than plant batch size

Simple structure means maintenance can be handled locally instead of waiting for a specialist

Choice of SUS304 or SUS316L lets the buyer match the shell to their cleaning chemistry

Problems

Problems It Solves

Milk arriving from several farms with no dedicated intake vessel is handled in improvised containers

Vessels with dead corners cannot be proven clean between different deliveries

Plant scale tanks are oversized and slow to clean at a small collection point

Complex intake equipment is difficult to maintain away from the plant

From 300L to 1500L, customised to the quantity arriving at your intake point.

Is the tank hygienic enough for raw milk

It is manufactured to food hygienic standard in SUS304 or SUS316L with no dead corner in the product contact area.

Where is it typically installed

At milk collection centres, on dairy and cow farms and at the intake end of a dairy production line.
