Cutting edge technology, quality industrial components, and dedicated service keep food production facilities safe and productive.
EQM Industrial uses a team approach to work closely with both the agricultural sectors and the engineers responsible for hygienic plant processing design.
Product knowledge to share
Thirty years of designing, fabricating and installing technical products adds up to a lot of technical knowledge. And we love to share it.
Our key suppliers – STM and Clean-geartech – collaborate with us to provide all product information to our customers.
Plant design engineers know that CAD files, STEP files or user-friendly interactive PDF Technical data sheets are only a request away.
Hygienic demands for food processing plants
Food handling of all types – meat, seafood, vegetables, fruit, dairy products and more – always presents a new set of challenges.
It’s helpful to model a project in 3D before you start to be sure that everything’s going to mesh together and fit into the available space.
Stainless steel geardrives for the food industry
One of our clients has just completed a maintenance upgrade.
This innovative company farms, harvests and processes 130 tonnes of mussels every day.
Hygiene and food safety are top of the list for them.
They chose hard-wearing stainless steel for the 15 plus geardrives they ordered from us. Why?
- It doesn’t harbour bacteria,
- and withstands humidity, moisture and corrosion.
Production targets in the meat industry
One of the meat companies that we supply has been in business since 1904.
Well-established? Yes. Progressive? Absolutely. Still growing? Of course.
This company continually develops its processes for greater productivity and high quality.
When it came to installing new custom machinery and refurbishing old machinery, they specified EQM products, so we are working with their engineers to give them the best solutions possible.
Working with engineers
EQM is a key service provider for New Zealand’s industrial, manufacturing and agricultural sectors.
Both contract engineers and engineering companies partner with us for technical advice on specifying and supplying the appropriate:
- Geardrives
- Bearings
- Power transmission components
- Motors and
- Controllers
Design engineers can count on us for solutions and support. For all your specific applications.
Here’s some feedback from the project manager of an ongoing project for an engineering company:
“The stainless steel gearboxes have been so easy to incorporate into our design with the STEP file provided. This has made the process of quoting, purchasing and supplying the correct product for the job seamless.”
A successful business is not only profitable. It adds value to both its suppliers and its clients. So remember to ask for that technical data!
