Emerging Innovations Shaping the Future of Food Extrusion
Companies in the food extrusion sector are increasingly focusing on innovative machinery that streamlines production and enhances versatility. A prime example is the "all-in-one forming system," which combines shaping, cutting, and molding into a single piece of equipment. This integrated approach improves manufacturing efficiency and product variety.

In February 2024, Handtmann Inc., a machine industry business from Germany, introduced the FS 525 all-in-one forming system. This advanced equipment excels in precise portioning and forming, ensuring consistent, high-quality output. It features a co-extrusion capability designed for filled products, making it invaluable for processing meat, vegetarian, and confectionery items. The system supports two forming techniques: hole plate forming for creating free-formed 3D shapes and rotary cutting to produce diverse cross-sectional profiles. Its flexibility allows processing a broad array of food products, while optimized filling handling enhances production for snacks and convenience foods.
