Findus selects Nimo-KG to update its Swedish plant
Findus has selected Nimo-KG, a specialist in tailor-made technical solutions for the food industry, to update its production plant in southern Sweden. The new machines are to be up and running in less than a year and will, at full production, handle virtually all products leaving the factory.
The production plant produces many of Findus different varieties of frozen vegetables and wok mixes, and already uses a large number of lifts, tipping devices, weighing stations and mixers from Nimo-KG. The latest order calls for a complete mixing station made entirely out of stainless steel.
“The facility includes a hefty platform in stainless steel with a total of 17 tipping devices and the same number of isolated buffer pockets. Each pocket has its own vibrating chute underneath, which shakes the frozen vegetables onto a weighing container – in order to ensure that each individual amount of vegetables is correct before the different parts are mixed together in seven enormous blenders,” says Torsten Palmgren, sales manager at Nimo-KG.
