We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Food Processing Industries",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Manufacturingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release CNC machine drills, fettles wing assemblies from
AMTRI, which we summarised at the time by saying "A 5+2-axis CNC machine, travelling on a 60m track, automatically drills and fettles leading and trailing edge assemblies for miltary transport aircraft wings in a single cost-saving set-up".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Thermocouples, data loggers and analysis from
Datapaq: "To ensure it meets the new requirements, Datapaq has carried out a comprehensive review of its thermocouples, data loggers and analysis software".
In January 2007, we covered the news from Mettler Toledo
concerning its X-ray, metal detection and checkweighing
- take a look at X-ray, metal detection and checkweighing
which says: "Mettler Toledo's Product Inspection (PI) division, is, says the company, considered as the market leader in leading-edge X-ray, metal detection and checkweighing technologies".
Take a look also at the news release from Omron Scientific Technologies, Automation firm completes merger with Omron,
as well as Thermocouples for accurate temperature readings from Datapaq,
and Ultrasonic sensors enable high accuracy from Automation Products Group.
