Optimizing Value: The Role of Value Engineering in Food Service Equipment Selection ! In the realm of designing within the food service industry, the term "value engineering" often emerges as a key consideration. But what does this term signify, and why is it an indispensable part of the design process? Imagine this scenario: within the intricacies of a kitchen design project, a specific make and model of equipment have been earmarked. However, upon estimating its cost, it becomes apparent that the price surpasses the budgetary limits set by the operator. In such a scenario, alternative manufacturers offering similar equipment at a more economical rate may be explored. Yet, a pivotal question arises: will these alternatives deliver the same level of performance as the initially specified item? This is precisely where value engineering steps in. It represents a strategic endeavor to optimize the value proposition without compromising on performance standards. Through meticulous analysis and assessment, value engineering seeks to identify cost-effective alternatives that align with the project's requirements while ensuring optimal functionality. In the context of the food service industry, value engineering is a deliberate effort aimed at analysing food service equipment items with the goal of achieving essential functions at the lowest life-cycle cost while ensuring confidence in the performance, quality, reliability, and safety of the equipment in question. Here, value is defined as the ratio of function to costs. Consequently, the value of a piece of equipment can be enhanced by either augmenting or refining its function or by reducing its cost. As indicated earlier, in today's food service landscape, value engineering often emerges as a response to budgetary constraints. Regrettably, upfront costs tend to dominate decision-making processes, often at the expense of considering the long-term operating savings associated with the equipment. Thus, an enhanced focus on long-term value and cost-effectiveness is imperative within the value engineering framework, ensuring prudent decision-making and optimal utilization of resources within the food service industry. #ValueEngineering #FoodServiceDesign #CostEfficiency #PerformanceStandards #KitchenEquipment #BudgetaryConstraints #OptimizingValue #TSBuilt #Costofownership #ROI

#snsinstitutions #snsdesignthinkers #designthinking FOOD PROCESS DESIGN AND ENGINEERING Food process design involves the assembly of unit operations to transform materials, usually agricultural products, into safe, nutritious foods and beverages. Unit operations may be generic, as in heating or cooling, or quite specific, as in the peeling of one type of fruit. The relationship among these unit operations can be shown in a flow diagram. Flow rates of both material and energy are calculated on the basis of some desired production rate to establish the correct size of equipment and connections (e.g. pipes and conveyors). Means of control are determined and shown on the diagrams in increasing detail and complexity. Specific types and models of equipment are selected according to performance and cost. These are arranged, or laid out, to satisfy the constraints of an existing building or to optimize people and material flow. This arrangement is shown in a layout drawing, which becomes the basis for building design or modification. With this information in hand, a cost estimate is prepared. Many unit operations in food processing are almost unique to the industry and require special care in selection, design, and modeling. The scientific and engineering tools

Key Features of the Final Inspection Belt Conveyor by Kailas Engineering Systems The Final Inspection Belt Conveyor, crucial in the ginger and garlic paste processing line, is a sophisticated piece of machinery designed for efficiency and precision. Kailas Engineering Systems, a renowned name in industrial automation, has developed a conveyor system that stands out for its robust construction and meticulous design. One of the key features of this belt conveyor is the high-quality materials used in its construction. The framework is typically made of stainless steel, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion, a vital consideration given the acidic nature of ginger and garlic. The belts themselves are crafted from food-grade materials that are not only durable but also easy to clean, maintaining hygiene standards essential in food processing. The design specifics of the Kailas Engineering Systems conveyor are tailored to handle the unique properties of ginger and garlic paste. The conveyor is equipped with adjustable speed settings, allowing precise control over the flow of the product, which is crucial for thorough inspection. The system also includes features like easy-access panels for maintenance, and integrated sensors to detect any foreign materials or inconsistencies in the paste. Additionally, the conveyor’s design ensures minimal contact between the product and machine surfaces, reducing the risk of contamination. This combination of superior materials and thoughtful design makes the Kailas Engineering Systems Final Inspection Belt Conveyor an indispensable asset in the production of high-quality ginger and garlic paste.

Although forced labor risk has been exposed on the construction site, the other half of forced labor risk embedded in building material production has generally been given a labor transparency pass, meaning there is no accountability for their unfair labor practices. The complexity and the sheer number of unique raw, composite and manufactured materials used in construction, make the risk of forced labor in the global building materials supply chain high. Within our Design for Freedom by Grace Farms Ethical Supply Chain Workshop Insights Report, you'll find critical information on forced labor in the global building materials supply chain and key insights from the November 2023 workshop. Topics include the state of the industry and the legal framework, ethical decarbonization, how technology can help create more transparent supply chains and more. Download our Ethical Supply Chain Workshop Insights report now to deep dive into this impactful workshop, hosted by Grace Farms Foundation, U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Overseas Buildings Operations (OBO), and Turner Construction Company: https://bit.ly/3vU9Ex1

Head of Projects at legacy manufacturing solutions limited | Delivering Complex Manufacturing Projects
You wouldn’t buy a car with square wheels, or a bucket with holes to collect water, it wouldn’t work! You might willingly choose a scratched piece of antique furniture for its character but, in manufacturing design, every choice matters! 🏢💼 If you need to deliver 20 tonnes of materials 1000 miles, two 10-tonne lorries would break the bank! 💰🚚 Likewise, if your production batch size is 1000kg, and it takes 1 hour to process, a plant with a 500kg capacity doubling your production time just doesn't make sense! ⏳🌱 Understanding what's "Fit for Purpose" is the cornerstone of smart manufacturing plant design. 🧩🏭 Don't compromise efficiency – design for success! 💪 Feel like you could benefit from a manufacturing project manager in an upcoming project? Legacy Manufacturing Solutions are happy to help!
