Process Design

Process design in food manufacturing uses many universal process operations such as fluid flow, heat transfer, mixing, separation and chemical reaction. With a solid foundation in science, math and engineering, we provide innovative solutions to improve quality, safety and operational efficiency. Read more…

3D Design

A 3D model of the process system and facility provides a realistic design that improves the design process from inception to commissioning. Three-dimensional models are used for a virtual walk-through to gather valuable design feedback from safety, maintenance, operations, and quality personnel. Read more…
