Programme For Food Processing Industry

SEVER Corporation is oriented to the industry, energy sources, transport, farming, households for many years from the aspect of marketing and its programme.

The production programmes have been developed from electric machines, particularly electric motors, and later geard motors as well as the basic programme from generating sets and complex products such as pumps, fans, regulators and control devices, devices for farming and food-processing industry, automatic irrigation lines and complete systems and devices on the principle of engineering and complete factories.

SEVER gained great experience in production and fitting equipment for food-processing industry.

We design, construct, manufacture, mount the separate equipment and provide complete engineering for equipment and plant:

1. Cold fruit processing

2. Cold vegetable processing

3. Potato processing

4. Roasting and processing of grained products

5. Extruded and expanded products

6. Processing of medicinal herbs

Cold fruit processing

On the field of storce fruit and berry fruits processing SEVER produces lines (fig.3) and particular devices for processing plum, sour cherry, strawberry, raspberry, blackberry...

Within the farm work of the mentioned lines are organized production of stalking machine, barboting machine, calibrator, destoring machine, freezing tunnel, balance for large-scale weighing line conveyors and other plants and equipments depending on processing techno-logy.

Line capacity depends on fruit kind and processing technology, end it is between 2000-5000 kg/h.

Cold vegetable processing

Regarding technology of cold vegetable processing SEVER organized and installed many lines and single plants for processing pepper, peas, French beans, correts ...

The lines (fig. 4) are provided for vegetable freezing depending on its kind and processing technology are developed of rotary washing plants, grape-seed separator, cutting plant, freezing tunnel, weighing and packing machines, transport plants.

Line capacity depends on the kind of vegetable and it is between 2000 to 3000 kg/h.

Potato processing

The final product of the potato processing line may be the following:

1. chips; 2. French fries; 3. puree.

The preparation of potato for processing is almost identical or differs a little from the processing procedure of all other kinds and it usually consists of discharger, feeding silo, washing plant and destoner, barboting plant, peeler (abrasive peeler), cutting plant, inspection conveyor belt, transport plants.

Potato products can be supplied in many shapes and guises i.e. sliced, wedges, roast, mash, formed and crumbed etc. The list is almost endless! Flo-Mech supply either single machines or complete processing lines from raw material intake through cooling, freezing and packaging.

Equipment size is usually throughput dependent, but the wide range available is suitable for lines from around 100 kg/hr to around 10 tph, of finished product.

Lines can be specified with abrasive or steam peeler options, mechanical or water knife cutters, screw or belt blanchers and manual or electronic inspection.

Equipment to produce potato mash varies depending on the application, but capacity ranges from around 100 kg/hr up to 2500 kg/hr, and can incorporate automatic defect removal by utilizing the Hoegger Separator.

In the further processing there are used machines and plants depending on the kind of product and the particularity of technological line: blanching plants, starch separator, frying plant, vibrating separator, defating plant, rotary machine for salting, drying plant, transport plants, packing machines.

Capacity of line depending on the kind of product is 100 to 1000 kg/h of finished product.

Roasting and processing of grained products

It comprises plants for processing coffee, substitute for coffee and other products like peanut, hazelnut, soya beans, sunflower seeds...

According to requipment of techological process of individual product, the line consists of feeding conveyor or platforms, roasters, cooling table, conveyors, storehouse of roasted products, mill, plants for packing underground products (on request), plants for packing ground products (on request).

Capacity of plants for roasting and milling of coffee (fig. 5) is 30, 60, 120, 240 and 300 kg/h.

Extruded and expanded products

SEVER produces complete production plants for extruded -expanded products on the basic of corn grits (fig. 6). Technology of extrusion and expansion consists of preparation of raw material, extrusion-expansion, drying, flavouring, packing.

By modification of the individual plants and technological lines it is possible to make extruded and expanded products from other raw materials. Lines are made for capacities of 60 and 120 kg/h.

Mixing of powdery and fine grained products

Longtime experience in engineering and production of different types of mixers for powdery and fine - grained products are resulted by organization of the whole mixing technology of these products. Systems are used for mixing all kind of powdery and fine - grained products in food - and other industries. The base for this system are made of the following technological operations: feeding; mixing; roasting; transporting.

The system can be designed as a self standing complex or it can be included into various technological lines with manual and automatic control.

Processing of medicinal herbs

In cooperation with APV, the famous European company, SEVER offers the production of complete equipment and plants for processing medicinal herbs.

Processing technology of medicinal herbs includes storage of raw material, preparational dehydration, dehydration, extraction, distillation, packing.

These lines are designed and manufactured depending on the kind of medicinal herb assortment of required capacity and final products.
