European Freeze Dry
Enhancing Efficiency and Automation
In 2016, we partnered with European Freeze Dry (EFD) to help automate two of their packing rooms—one dedicated to tubes and tins, and the other for stand-up pouches. Our goal was to improve efficiency, consistency, and production capacity.
During installation, EFD highlighted challenges with their cooking capacity. To address this, we later supplied them with Joni steam jacketed kettles, helping them increase efficiency in their cooking processes.
The new automated lines ran smoothly, and in 2019, we further optimized the system by adding two sieves to the pot line’s feed system. This enhancement significantly improved consistency for a challenging new product.
By 2020, we upgraded the pouch-filling machine, successfully tripling production capacity—further reinforcing EFD’s ability to meet growing demand.
The system has two stainless steel multiheadweighers:
- Premade pouch filling machinery – Boosted efficiency in pouch packaging.
- Multihead weighers – Ensured precise product portioning.
- Conveyor systems – Facilitated smooth product flow between processes.
- Joni cooking kettles – Increased cooking capacity and consistency.
Through careful planning, high-quality engineering, and ongoing collaboration, we helped EFD significantly enhance their automation, improve product consistency, and scale up production. This case study highlights our commitment to providing tailored solutions that drive real operational improvements.
