Omas Industries: complete solutions for spice processing

Omas Industries specializes in providing advanced, comprehensive solutions for processing various spices, including peppercorns, fennel seeds, cumin, cardamom, coriander, anise, mustard, and many others. Our dedicated plants manage every stage of the grinding process of spices and preparation.

Spice cleaning: machinery for impurity removal

The crucial first step is cleaning, which eliminates impurities, dust, stones, and foreign objects from the spices. Our state-of-the-art spice processing machine line-up includes grain scourers, destoners, separators, and vertical aspirators. 

This specialized equipment ensures thorough cleanliness while preserving the integrity of the product. Omas uses the innovative DST – Dry Scrubbing Technology, which guarantees water-free dry cleaning. This process significantly reduces utility consumption and minimizes the risks of contamination, maintaining the highest hygiene standards.

Spice grinding: customized granulometry solutions

After cleaning, the spices undergo the grinding process of spices to achieve the desired granulometry, ranging from ultra-fine powder to coarser pieces. To meet diverse production needs, Omas Industries offers a range of high-precision equipment, including roller mills, plansifters, centrifugal impactors, and disintegrators. Thanks to the Flexy Mill system and Omas torque motors, it is possible to automatically adjust the distance and speed of the rollers with an unparalleled precision of up to 0.004 mm. 

This results in a consistent and customized grinding process of spices, crucial for preserving the essential aromas and organoleptic characteristics of each spice. For industrial applications requiring robust and consistent performance, our precision roller mills serve as the ultimate spice grinding machine.

Spice discharge and storage: secure handling systems

The discharge and storage phase is equally critical for maintaining the quality of the spices before final packaging. Our handling systems, including vertical bucket elevators, screw conveyors, weighing scales, and chain conveyors, ensure a safe and hygienic transfer of the product between various stages.

The use of integrated torque motors allows for transfer movements without mechanical transmissions, effectively reducing vibration, friction, and energy consumption. Control via HMI and SCADA systems enables precise monitoring of flow rates, silo levels, and temperature, ensuring an optimal environment for long-term preservation.

Spice packaging: dosing and packing for professional presentation

Finally, complete packaging operations utilizing integrated dosing and bagging machines ensure precise portions and functional, professional packaging ready for distribution.

The Omas Multidevice interface allows operators to adjust packaging parameters directly from the touch panel of the Leonardo Edge roller mill, adapting the speed and quantity to the specific type of spice. This full automation minimizes downtime and guarantees hygienic packaging that complies with all food industry standards.
