For any food manufacturing process that requires the handling of solids in the ingredient chain it’s vital that the equipment you choose gives you reliability and flexibility, whilst handling your food solids appropriately. Machines for solids handling include storage solutions, equipment for moving solids to production areas, production processes including milling, grinding and chopping, and intermediate and final packing, wrapping and storage equipment. In the food industry, there is also a requirement to have large scale production or finishing equipment where solid masses require processes such as cooking, steaming, preserving or canning.
At Vekamaf, our engineers have many years’ experience in the food industry advising clients on the latest handling and processing machinery for solids. We work with some of the most innovative suppliers on the market to bring our clients the best solution for their own unique solids processing and handling challenges. We’re able to analyse your requirements and provide recommendations that provide you with solutions that works seamlessly with your production environment whilst benefiting from the latest technologies.
