Technical solutions for the food industry
We design, build and optimise machinery and equipment for the food industry, mainly the fruit and vegetable industry.
We carry out work in the field of food preservation and mixing of raw materials, semi-finished products, commodities.
We carry out the work in a comprehensive manner, taking into account the design, technological process and properties of the end product.
NON-ACCREDITED TESTING
Our key services for the food industry:
FEM and CFD computer simulations – optimization of production processes
- Strength analysis of machines and equipment (FEM) : computer simulations using the finite element method (FEM) in the fields of statics, kinematics, dynamics, thermodynamics, and nonlinear problems
- Liquid and gas flow modeling (CFD) : numerical fluid mechanics analyses (CFD) in the fields of single-phase and multiphase analyses and heat transfer
- Design verification and production cost reduction
Research on technological processes
- Research into individual processes, including: forming, grinding, mixing, fraction separation,
- Determination of operating parameters for technological processes
Analysis of food product properties
- Food texture testing using the instrumental Texture Profile Analysis (TPA) test
- Rheological testing of liquids with a viscosity above 0.5 Pas
- Sieve analysis: assessment of particle size distribution in products.
Prototypes of food and agri-food machines
- Design and prototyping – creating and optimizing machines tailored to the needs of the food industry.
- Functional testing – checking the performance of prototypes in real production conditions.
- Strength analysis – testing durability and resistance to intensive use.
- Process optimization – improving prototypes in terms of efficiency and energy consumption.
- Compliance with standards – designing in accordance with industry and sanitary requirements.
Our prototype production line for vegetable burgers won the MTP Group Gold Medal.
