We do not sell machines. We deliver a line that hits a yield.

Sixteen food process lines, engineered from the raw material forward. Every one of them here with its flow diagram, mass balance, equipment schedule and real capacities — before you talk to anyone.

GEM Foodtech is the food processing division of Gem Drytech Systems LLP, Kolkata — an Indian manufacturer and exporter of food processing equipment and turnkey plants since 1998, with more than 112 installations across four continents.

Start with what you are processing

Each line below opens on its own flow diagram, process chart, mass balance and equipment schedule — with a yield calculator you can run on your own tonnage.

Yield is the only number that matters

A processing plant is a yield machine wearing a capital cost. Onion dehydration returns 12 to 13 kg of product per 100 kg of raw material. Tomato paste takes 5.6 tonnes of fruit to make one tonne. Cashew gives you 22% kernel and the rest is shell.

Those numbers are on every page of this site, because a feasibility built on optimistic yields fails in year one regardless of how good the equipment is. We would rather you check our arithmetic before you sign anything.

What you get before you commit

  • Process flow diagram for your specific product and capacity
  • Mass balance from raw intake through to packed product
  • Equipment schedule with sizes, materials of construction and utilities
  • Plant layout and space envelope
  • Utility schedule — steam, power, water, effluent, compressed air
  • Indicative capex and a yield-based operating model

Pilot trials run at our Kolkata facility on your own material. You get the data whether or not you buy the plant.

We will come back with a flow diagram, a yield model and a budget number. Usually within a week.
