In the world of industrial manufacturing, precision is paramount. From receiving and introduction of raw materials to final packaging and shipping, each stage must be carefully coordinated and designed to improve safety, consistency, and efficiency. Our process design services can streamline and simplify every aspect of your manufacturing facility.
Process Design Services:
Concept Planning & Feasibility Studies
From ideation to assessment, we offer concept drawings and feasibility studies that pave the way for successful project execution. High level budgeting and feasibility assessment can help determine the viability of a potential project and be used to secure approval for funding.
Mass Balances
Mass balance is crucial for process changes as it documents all mass flow changes. Knowing the current and future rates of products, materials, equipment, and people helps design the process to accommodate these rates. Understanding the overall process, how it will be completed, and the time frame it needs to be completed in is also important. Our experts analyze your product mix and design the flow of all aspects of your process to generate optimum results.
Process Layouts
Optimizing space and workflow, our layout designs prioritize safety, ergonomics, and efficiency, streamlining the entire process from start to finish. Utilizing 3D modeling, we provide comprehensive and owner-focused designs with accurate equipment and conveyor models to reduce field clashes and to provide our customers with the ability to obtain accurate and competitive bids from contractors.
Lean Manufacturing
The key to long term success for a processing line is designing it right from the beginning. Our experts use Lean Principles throughout the development of a process to eliminate or minimize wastes in the process flow. This method of design provides our customers with low cost, high yielding processing solutions.
Equipment Utility
Matrices
The Equipment Matrix lists all equipment that will be removed, relocated, or added as part of a process change. It includes a description of the equipment, manufacturer make and model, and any utility requirements. Our experts develop detailed matrices for projects to ensure that every discipline or trade understands the requirements for your project.
Conveyor Design
& Schedules
Every ingredient or product has unique handling requirements. Our conveyor designs provide optimum transportation of your ingredients and products based on their unique characteristics. We can offer our own sanitary design recommendations or follow any standards you have developed. Our deliverables include accurate conveyor dimensions to fit your process so you can obtain competitive bids from multiple suppliers.
Team Member & Food Safety
Our experts ensure that your process is compliant with OSHA regulations by checking for proper egress, life safety, and ergonomic conditions. We also conduct a review of potential foreign material and sanitary risks to reduce the chances of food safety issues.
