Operational Challenges in Food & Pet Food Processing
Food and pet food processors operate in highly regulated, high-throughput environments where even small inefficiencies can lead to quality issues, safety risks, or lost production.
S. Howes designs equipment to stabilize your process, protect product integrity, and keep lines running reliably – addressing the real-world challenges that impact consistency, sanitation, and uptime across modern food manufacturing.
Pain Points We Solve
- Inconsistent ingredient mixing
- Contamination risks and allergen carryover
- Dust generation and worker safety issues
- Poor material flow or product bridging
- Equipment that is difficult to clean or sanitize
- Inefficient screening or size reduction
- Unreliable conveying that causes downtime
- Temperature-related ingredient degradation
Optimize Your Food Processing Line
We help food and pet food manufacturers achieve safe, consistent, and efficient ingredient processing – while meeting strict sanitation and quality standards. S. Howes engineers work directly with R&D, quality, and production teams to design systems tailored to:
- Ingredient characteristics (powders, granules, slurries, proteins, and heat-sensitive materials)
- Sanitary, FDA, USDA, and 3-A compliance requirements
- Batch and continuous throughput targets
- Scale-up from test kitchen or pilot lines to full production
- Facility layout, cleanability, and allergen-control needs
- Moisture, fat content, and temperature-control constraints
Engineered for Food & Pet Food Material Processing
Food-Grade Conveying Systems
For powders, granules, meat ingredients, and pet food blends.
Screw conveyors, tubular conveyors, U-trough conveyors, and feeders are engineered with food-grade finishes and contamination-resistant seals.
Applications include flours, sugars, proteins, kibble mixes, and supplements.
Screening & Separating Equipment
For purity, consistency, and flow control.
Sifters, shakers, and screeners remove overs, fines, and foreign material while protecting delicate ingredients.
Used for flour, powdered sugar, spices, bakery ingredients, dry pet food, and nutraceutical powders.
Size Reduction Systems
For controlled particle size and product uniformity.
Knife Cutters, Powermix, Graters, Lump Breakers, and Granulators are built with food-safe materials and easy-clean designs.
