Customer Case Study | At an Altitude of 3,700 Meters on the Snow-Capped Plateau, Triowin's Subsidiary KMA's GTS50B Delivers a Hardcore Report Card for Beer Clarification

2026-08-21

At an altitude of nearly 3,700 meters, with low air pressure and dramatic day-night temperature swings—on this snow-covered plateau regarded by the industry as an "extreme test ground for equipment"—at the China Resources Snow Breweries Changdu Plant, Triowin's subsidiary KMA's GTS50B disc stack centrifuge successfully completed a full-load field trial for the post-fermentation clarification process: the system operated stably, all indicators met standards, with measured oxygen pickup below 3 ppb, and both turbidity and yeast counts significantly reduced**.

Direct Drive, Quiet and Stable

Stable Operation, Long-Lasting Reliability

The KMA GTS50B abandons belt/gear transmission and instead adopts a motor direct-drive bowl, reducing mechanical transmission links at the source and effectively lowering operational vibration. During operation, the equipment runs smoothly and reliably, achieving long-term stable operation.

One less transmission chain means less wear, one less shutdown, and one less spare parts expense—lower noise and reduced energy consumption. This is precisely the "low maintenance, long cycle" solution most needed in remote plateau regions.

Freshness-Locking Seal

Below 3 ppb: Blocking Oxidation at the Source

Oxidation is one of the key factors affecting beer flavor deterioration. The GTS50B adopts a fully enclosed hydro-hermetic feed design, forming a water-ring seal at the bowl feed zone to effectively reduce the risk of contact between the beer and ambient air. In this trial, the measured oxygen pickup was below 3 ppb, far outperforming the design target of <5 ppb. Delicate flavor compounds such as malt aroma and fruity esters are fully preserved, ensuring taste consistency and shelf-life stability for the plateau production line from the source.

Lean Beer Loss Management

A Win-Win for Quality and Yield

Clarification discharge is a delicate balancing act: discharge too little, and residual yeast and cold trub affect beer clarity; discharge too much, and valuable beer is lost, reducing finished product yield. The GTS50B relies on high-precision discharge technology to enable efficient and controllable separation of yeast and cold trub, further reducing beer loss rates, simultaneously improving product quality, finished product yield, and overall economic benefit.

Conclusion From German Craft Breweries to the Snow-Capped Plateau

From German craft breweries like Braune Hirsch and industrial giants like Feldschlößchen, to the snow-capped plateau at an altitude of 3,700 meters, the GTS series is leveraging its differentiated advantages of "reliability, intelligence, and low consumption" to help more beer enterprises optimize and upgrade their clarification processes. Choosing KMA is not just choosing a separator—it is choosing a long-term value that remains stable and consistent even under extreme operating conditions.
