Twin-Engine Drive, Intelligently Brewing the Future: The Core Technology Engine of Zorime Tech
We regard technological innovation as the lifeline and soul of our enterprise. Our technological strength is not a single-dimensional extension, but a deeply integrated “twin-engine” system composed of two top-tier professional teams: the automation expert team from the Shandong Academy of Sciences and the seasoned brewing science and technology team. These two engines work in synergy, seamlessly integrating cutting-edge industrial intelligence with profound brewing artistry, forming the fundamental source of our equipment’s exceptional performance and leading value.
The First Engine: The Automation Expert Team — Building the “Intelligent Brain and Neural Network” for Craft Brewing
The automation expert team, backed by the Shandong Academy of Sciences, is the “hardcore” cornerstone of our technological system. Led by scholars and senior engineers with decades of experience in industrial internet, smart sensing, precision control, and big data analytics, this team’s mission is to elevate the craft beer production process from an experience-dependent craft to a scientific system capable of precise prediction, control, and optimization.
Their work delves into the underlying logic of equipment and processes:
- During the mashing stage, their developed multivariable adaptive control system can monitor in real-time and dynamically adjust key parameters such as temperature, pH, and stirring speed, ensuring maximized mashing efficiency, optimized flavor compound extraction, and achieving high consistency between batches.
- In the core fermentation stage, the team has invested immense effort. Their designed fully-closed-loop intelligent fermentation control system integrates high-precision temperature sensors, pressure transmitters, and online density monitors. This system not only enables precise temperature control but also, by constructing fermentation kinetic models, analyzes yeast activity and metabolic progress in real-time, automatically regulating pressure and cooling cycles. This precisely guides the generation pathways of flavor compounds like esters and phenols, truly allowing brewers to “program” flavors.
- At the factory-level management stage, the team infuses “Industry 4.0” genes into our large-scale turnkey projects. By deploying SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) and MES (Manufacturing Execution System), clients can globally monitor production status, automatically generate reports, manage materials and energy consumption from a central control room or even remotely via mobile devices, achieving digital and transparent brewing management.
This team endows the equipment with stable, reliable, and replicable “industrial precision,” ensuring operation to the same excellent standard no matter where in the world the equipment is located.
The Second Engine: The Brewing Science and Technology Team — Endowing Equipment with the “Flavor Soul and Artistic Intuition”
If the automation team builds the equipment’s “skeleton and nerves,” then our internal brewing science and technology team infuses it with “flesh and soul.” This is a composite team of experts in microbiology, enzyme engineering, flavor chemistry, and traditional brewing processes. They possess a deep understanding of every biochemical detail and artistic aspiration of beer, from malt to glass.
Their specialized fields directly define the equipment’s brewing efficacy:
- Yeast Science and Fermentation Management: The team has established a professional yeast strain library and activity assessment laboratory, conducting in-depth research on the performance of different strains under various pressure, temperature, and nutrient conditions. These research findings are directly translated into design specifications for fermentation tanks, such as optimal diameter-to-height ratios, specific cooling jacket layouts, and efficient CIP spray ball placements, all aimed at creating the most ideal and pristine working environment for yeast.
- Flavor-Oriented Process Design: They focus not only on fermentation efficiency but are also dedicated to shaping flavor profiles. Through close collaboration with the automation team, they solidify process knowledge—such as “how to enhance ester aroma through stepwise temperature increases” or “how to reduce higher alcohols through pressure control”—into core algorithms and preset process curves within the equipment control system.
- Applied Research and Client Support: The team continuously conducts brewing experiments on malt varieties, hop addition methods, etc. Their results are used not only to optimize equipment but also to directly empower our clients. They provide comprehensive technical support, from process recipe consultation and yeast propagation guidance to off-flavor diagnosis, acting as the invisible “Head Brewer” by our clients’ side.
Synergistic Innovation: Systemic Value Where 1+1 > 2
The true barrier of our technological strength stems from the deep “chemical fusion” of the two teams. This is not simple division of labor but collaborative definition and design from the very beginning of a project.
For example, when developing a new intelligent multi-functional fermentation tank, the brewing team proposes core requirements from the perspectives of flavor creation and process flexibility: the need to achieve a wide temperature range from ales to lagers, pressure fermentation capability, support for dry hopping, etc. The automation team then “translates” these process requirements into engineering solutions: designing a composite high-efficiency cooling system, integrating precise pressure control and release valve assemblies, developing convenient dry-hop ports and anti-oxidation devices, and enabling intuitive control through a unified smart human-machine interface.
This consistent interdisciplinary dialogue ensures that every piece of Zorime equipment is both a precise and reliable industrial product and a professional partner deeply versed in the art of brewing. It allows our clients to avoid choosing between “stability” and “creativity,” instead granting them both a solid industrial foundation and the freedom for artistic expression.
Conclusion: Building the Brewing Cornerstone with Science and Craftsmanship
It is precisely this “twin-engine” technical team, composed of top automation experts and seasoned brewing scientists, that perfectly bridges the cutting-edge research capabilities of the Shandong Academy of Sciences with the practical brewing needs of the market. They encode processes with code and algorithms, sculpt equipment with biochemical knowledge and engineering wisdom, and together forge Zorime into a trustworthy label within the industry, recognized in both the dimensions of “technology” and “craftsmanship.” We firmly believe that only through such deep technological integration can we truly empower global brewers, allowing them to stand confidently on the solid cornerstone we have built together and explore the infinite possibilities of the flavor world.
