The coneVerge® maximizes efficiency by forming uniform, concentric, knife edge, optimum gap, multiple parallel flow channels between its fixed inner cone and sliding outer cone. The product flows through and exits these channels at high velocity and impacts with each other further enhancing energy utilization and homogenizing efficiency. The coneVerge® is TUV Add Better certified to reduce required homogenizer pressure and energy by up to 20%. In some cases, homogenizing pressure can be lowered even more than 20% - up to 50%.
Main Features
- Homogenizing efficiency is maximized
- Machining tolerances of micron size multiple parallel gaps are off set by using cones
- Deflections eliminated using only two solid hard metal wear parts, one fixed and one sliding.
- Self centering due to product flow through the gaps in same axis as actuation
- Subjecting all the product to uniform fluid dynamics.
- No Springs are used making the valve robust and free of vibrations and harmonics, with low noise.
- Can be supplied with new high pressure homogenizer and also retrofitted on existing GEA or non-GEA homogenizers. Significant reduction in TCO of entire homogenizer with energy savings and reduction in wear and maintenance frequency, scope and cost.
- Improved particle size distribution, which lowers susceptibility to seasonal variations and reduction in surfactant use, if used.
- Available with double seals with flushed barrier chambers to homogenize aseptic/sterile products.
coneVerge® is registered as a trademark in several countries worldwide.

GEA Insights
The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.
Beyond the machine: unlocking better plant performance
An efficient machine does not automatically make an efficient factory. Real improvement often starts by looking beyond individual equipment and understanding how processes, energy systems and operating decisions affect one another. It’s a holistic approach designed to uncover opportunities that might otherwise be missed.
How a valve reshapes the way food and drinks are made
In food and beverage plants, valves are commonly operated using compressed air. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology moves valves with water instead, in a closed, digitally controlled circuit. The result is a valve that can be held exactly in place and steered in fine-tuned steps. This results in lower energy use and greater control.
