Typical process flow

Infeed & de-watering

Step 1

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

Blanching / Cooking

Step 2

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

Cooling & separation

Step 3

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

Inspection & conveying

Step 4

Product handling to packaging with optional QA gates.

  • Vision/metal detection where specified
  • Sanitary conveyors with easy access for cleaning

Packaging (chub/carton)

Step 5

KartridgPak chubmaker or cartoning; date-coding integrated via Elmoprint.

  • Tight diameter control; flexible sealing options
  • Recipe-driven changeovers for short runs

Controls & data

Step 6

Recipe control, OEE visibility and integration to plant systems.

  • PLC/HMI with multilingual UI and stored recipes
  • OEE and alarms available for SCADA/MES
