Separation | Machines & Equipment | Food
In modern food manufacturing, there are many production processes that require separation of raw inputs into usable component ingredients. Some processes involve a mechanical removal of shells, husks, skins, pods or other unwanted parts of organic ingredients. In other processes, the raw ingredients arrive on site in need of separation from dust, grit, or other unwanted particulates. Some processes require ingredients to be chemically separated into components that can be used in later processes, such as distillation, extraction or concentration.
Vekamaf have broad experience of separation processes for the food industry. We work with clients to understand the production challenge that they need to overcome, and we work with the most innovative suppliers to bring efficient technological solutions. We make it easy for clients to access the latest production technology and to seamlessly integrate it within their existing production lines and processes.

Technology for separation of ingredients in food manufacturing
The highest quality of raw ingredients is key in food production, and at Vekamaf we can advise on a range of equipment designed to remove contaminants and increase quality. We have a series of products designed to remove dust and other particulates such as vacuum belt filters and vacuum drum filters, as well as airborne dust extraction.
Vekamaf can help with separation processes for specific food industries. For example, our cocoa bean winnower efficiently removes the skin and shell from cocoa beans to allow for the highest quality chocolate production.
Our engineers have extensive knowledge of equipment for processing raw ingredients to extract oils or flavour compounds using a range of evaporation, distillation and concentration plants. We can advise on the commissioning of pilot plants for these processes, allowing you to test and upscale to full production more efficiently.
We strive to be an inspiring conversation partner for our clients and we are continuously on the lookout to spot new trends and innovations. We work closely with a select network of international partners. Our engineers are periodically trained in separation technologies for the food industry. We help production facilities to improve the efficiency of their ingredient separation requirements, whilst maximizing the quality of the end-result. We look forward to learning more about your challenge so that we can connect you with the right expert!
