Nutraceutical and food processing manufacturers face material handling challenges that sit at the intersection of pharmaceutical-grade hygiene requirements and food industry production scales. Equipment must be clean-in-place compatible, built to food-contact material standards, and capable of handling the full range of powder densities, granule sizes, and batch volumes that these industries work with.
METO Systems designs and manufactures container bowl lifts, drum handling equipment, and blending systems specifically for these environments. The company’s stainless steel material handling equipment serves pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, food processing, and fine chemical manufacturers across the United States.
Container and Bowl Lifts for Batch Operations
METO Systems’ container and bowl lift systems address the core vessel handling challenge in batch manufacturing: how to safely, consistently, and repeatedly lift, position, tilt, and invert large-format containers to transfer product into downstream process equipment.
These systems are manufactured in 316L stainless steel with hygienic design features throughout — no crevices, no dead legs, no areas where product can accumulate between cleanings. Systems are configurable to handle multiple container formats and batch sizes, and can be integrated with downstream processing equipment for seamless product transfer.
Blending Systems for Powder and Granular Materials
METO Systems also manufactures precision blending solutions for nutraceutical and food processing applications. Drum blenders and container mixers are designed for consistent, repeatable blending of powder and granular materials across batch sizes. Systems are available in standard configurations or custom-engineered to specific batch volume, material type, and process integration requirements.
Custom Engineering and Service
For manufacturers with specific operational or regulatory requirements, METO Systems provides end-to-end engineering support: custom design and fabrication, on-site installation and commissioning, operator training, and preventive maintenance contracts. Learn more at https://www.metosystems.com/
