Food & Agricultural Processing Equipment
Custom machinery manufactured in Sri Lanka for spice exporters, fruit processors, beverage bottlers, and commercial kitchens.
Commercial Spice & Cinnamon Dehydrators
Multi-stage temperature and humidity ramping drying cabinets engineered specifically to retain vital essential oils, volatile aromatics, and vibrant color in Ceylon cinnamon, black pepper, cardamoms, and cloves.
Sanitary Stainless Steel Conveyors & Sorting Belts
AISI 304/316 washdown modular belt and roller conveyors with variable frequency speed drives, pneumatic reject kickers, and ergonomic inspection lighting for fruit, seafood, and bakery sorting.
Automated Liquid Dosing & Filling Stations
Multi-head positive displacement and peristaltic liquid fillers with anti-drip diving nozzles designed for sauces, oils, fruit concentrates, honey, and herbal syrups with precise ±0.5% fill accuracy.
Industrial Fruit & Vegetable Drying Tunnels
Energy-efficient heat pump and convective airflow drying tunnels for dehydrated mango, pineapple slices, jackfruit, and culinary herbs with uniform air distribution across all stainless mesh trays.
Rotary Powder Blenders & Mixing Vats
Double-cone and ribbon blenders with food-grade mirror-polished interiors, dust-tight discharge valves, and automated timer-interlocked speed cycling for spice mixes and powdered beverages.
End-of-Line Packaging & Capping Machines
Semi-automatic and continuous motorized screw-capping jigs, automated induction foil sealers, and synchronized inkjet date-coder brackets that streamline final export carton packaging.
How We Engineer Food Machinery In 6 Stages
Every weld, gasket, and motor is verified against strict sanitary food-contact requirements prior to factory deployment.
Product Characteristics & Moisture Profile
We analyze your food product: starting water activity (aw), initial moisture percentage, heat sensitivity thresholds, and required hourly throughput.
Sanitary 3D CAD Modeling & Airflow CFD
Designing smooth, crevice-free frames in SolidWorks, calculating thermal airflow CFD to eliminate cold spots, and verifying cleanability.
Certified Food-Grade SS304/316 Fabrication
TIG welding with argon gas purging, sanitary passivated seams, bead blasting, and food-safe seals inside our Galle engineering workshop.
Washdown IP66 Electrical & PLC Control
Mounting waterproof electrical panels, stainless cable glands, RTD temperature probes, and intuitive touchscreen recipe profiles.
Hygiene Validation & Live Food Trials
Comprehensive Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) using actual customer crop samples to establish exact drying curve parameters.
Site Delivery, Commissioning & HACCP Log
On-site installation, sanitization protocol training, and complete documentation packages for HACCP and GMP regulatory audits.
Food & Spice Machinery Technical Specifications
| Component | Fabrication Specification | Food Safety & Quality Value |
|---|---|---|
| Contact Surfaces | AISI 304 or 316 Stainless Steel with Ra < 0.8 μm sanitary polish | Prevents bacterial adhesion and passes export swab testing |
| Drying Heating Units | Indirect heat exchanger (clean air), Heat Pump, or Electric Ceramic heaters | Zero smoke, flue gas, or fuel odors contact the drying food |
| Conveyor Belting | FDA-approved polyurethane (PU), modular acetal plastic, or SS wire mesh | Resistant to animal fats, fruit acids, and frequent hot chemical washdowns |
| Control Panel Protection | IP66 Stainless Enclosure with slope roof and silicone hygienic seals | Endures direct high-pressure hose sprays during nightly sanitation |
| Liquid Dosing Precision | Servo-driven rotary valve or sanitary peristaltic tube (±0.5% tolerance) | Zero product giveaway and exact weight compliance on pre-packaged goods |
