Typical process flow
- 1
Infeed & de-watering
Gentle infeed, screening and water removal to stabilize flow and protect product.
- Stabilize upstream hopper levels and line pace
- Screen fines; remove free water to reduce carryover
- 2
Blanching / Cooking
Clean-Flow® or rotary drum systems optimize heat transfer and uniformity.
- Uniform residence time for consistent texture
- Hydro-Flow® agitation improves heat transfer and recovery
- 3
Cooling & separation
Rapid cooling locks texture and stops cook; separation removes starch and fines.
- Counter-flow cooling for lower water usage
- Starch removal to improve downstream QA
- 4
Inspection & conveying
Product handling to packaging with optional QA gates.
- Vision/metal detection where specified
- Sanitary conveyors with easy access for cleaning
- 5
Packaging (chub/carton)
KartridgPak chubmaker or cartoning; date-coding integrated via Elmoprint.
- Tight diameter control; flexible sealing options
- Recipe-driven changeovers for short runs
- 6
Controls & data
Recipe control, OEE visibility and integration to plant systems.
- PLC/HMI with multilingual UI and stored recipes
- OEE and alarms available for SCADA/MES
