Whether instant coffee, protein powder, spice mixes or baby food – they all have a common basis: a technology that usually remains in the background but is essential for modern food production. However, the processing of powders poses major challenges for food manufacturers. The fine particles tend to clump together, develop dust or, in the worst case, even become contaminated. At the same time, quality and hygiene requirements are constantly increasing. So how can powders be processed in such a way that they flow evenly, are precisely dosed and retain their valuable ingredients?
