Introduction: The Hidden Danger in Food Production Combustible dust represents one of the most serious yet overlooked safety hazards in snack food and bakery manufacturing. The fine particles produced during processing and conveying of flour, sugar, starches, and finished products create explosive conditions that have resulted in catastrophic incidents across the food industry. Since 1980,
Product breakage is one of the most persistent challenges in snack food production, one that cuts directly into yield, efficiency, and profit margins. Many plants lose 8–15% of their finished product during conveying due to chips, pretzels, crackers, or cookies fracturing in transit. For a facility producing 50,000 lbs per day, that equates to 4,000–7,500
Grain inspection plays a critical role in food safety, especially when testing for mycotoxins such as aflatoxin, fumonisin, ochratoxin A, zearalenone, and deoxynivalenol (DON). Mycotoxins are toxic secondary metabolites produced by certain molds such as Aspergillus, Penicillium and Fusarium. They contaminate grains, nuts, dried fruit, spices and coffee, and can cause illnesses ranging from acute
For today’s processors, hygienic equipment design is essential to both meeting regulations and protecting product integrity. Manufacturers face mounting demands to comply with global safety frameworks like FSMA, HACCP, and EU directives, while staying operationally efficient. Whether dealing with food, coffee, or other sensitive materials, your equipment must not only perform but also prevent contamination.
Very cool, quick facts about the semiconductor and solar industries. A $1 trillion semiconductor market by 2030. The global semiconductor market revenues are expected to reach $588 billion in 2024, according to World Semiconductor Trade Statistics, with a predicted compound annual growth rate of 6.5% until 2028. The semiconductor market expected to surpass $1 trillion
