Time for a change... 

MACHINERY UPDATE 

NEW & USED PROCESSING & PACKAGING EQUIPMENT - CUSTOM DESIGN SERVICES 

A Perfect combination... 

A sauce for inspiration... when a dream becomes reality. 

Meet Lionel Miller creator of Steakhouse Supply Group. 

Some 10,240 km away from Australia in 

Johannesburg South Africa, Lionel Miller 

had a dream. To run his own restaurant. 

Some twenty years later that dream became 

more than a reality with 8 restaurants 

to date across Australia called 

Squires Loft. The distinctively styled restaurants 

are a meat eaters delight, based 

on the South African style braai – which is 

Afrikaans for “barbecue” or “roast”. 

Lionel has always produced a unique 

range of sauces to compliment his dishes, 

black pepper, garlic, blue cheese to name 

just a few. These sauces were supplied 

under contract from outside and consequently 

lacked the quality control necessary 

to meet Lionel’s high standards. 

With 8 restaurants to supply a decision 

was made to build an operation capable 

of not only suppling the groups needs 

but with the possibility of producing the 

sauces for other retail outlets. 

Originally Lionel was looking to purchase 

machinery from overseas but the GFC 

made the costs prohibitive.

Lionel looked to local markets for supply 

and began enquiries with a NSW company. 

Soon he realised the need for more than a 

supplier of machines. His new endeavour 

would rely upon an organisation with the 

expertise and skills to design and build a 

system for his specific needs capable of 

cooking and packing his sauces. 

Lionel chose PPN because of their experience 

in all aspects of his requirements. 

Design, engineering, project management 

and the readily available supply of new and 

used equipment all within the PPN warehouses 

where he could view and trial machines 

on site. 

This was an ideal solution. He was also 

delighted with the savings made with the 

purchase of his new iopak machines and 

the secondhand equipment available at 

PPN. 

Giles Dommisse and the team went into 

action and designed a sure fire system to 

meet Lionel’s needs.

The ideal setup for dressings, marinades and 

sauces as used by the Steakhouse Supply Group 

This system is designed to manufacture steak and dressing 

sauces from scratch. After sauces are made they’re packed using 

a liquid pouch packer that makes a pouch from a roll of film. 

Then it deposits 1 Ltr of sauce into the pouch. Pouches are 

printed with product name, use by dates, batch code number, 

ingredients listings, etc. 

The complete system is comprised of: 

1. 1 x 1,000 Ltr iopak Liquimulse High Speed Liquid Mixing 

System (with 15kW variable speed drive) with s/s loading stand 

- this system mixes up sauces that do not require cooking. 

Mixing is done at high speed. 

2. 1 x 1000 Ltr iopak Holding Tank with stirrer (variable 

speed), on wheels - this holds the sauce ready for packing into 

pouches. 

3. 2” Rotary Lobe Pump with Receival Hopper on Trolley. 

Hopper Capacity: 50L Motor on 2” Pump: 5.5kW. Height from 

Ground to Top of Hopper: 750mm. Pumps the sauce to the 

holding tank. 

4. 1 x 2 inch, 5 kW iopak Sanitary Lobe Pump, variable speed, 

with catchment hopper (low level) and mounted on a s/s frame 

with wheels - the cookers tilt the sauce into the pump hopper 

which in turn pumps the sauces into a holding tank. 

5. SMARTDATE 5 Thermal transfer printer prints the 1 litre 

sauce pouch and the incline pack off conveyor carries it away. 

6. 1 x Combination iopak 2” Lobe Pump and 7.5kW Inline Shear 

mixer - this system is designed to mix and blend immiscible 

liquids such as oil and water and reduce the particle size of the 

sauce. 

7. iopak Carton Taper - tapes the top and bottom of the carton 

automatically. 

8. iopak Pack Off Conveyor. Features stainless steel construction, 

a food grade plastic cleat belt, and is mounted on lockable 

castors and wheels to provide portability. Conveys finished 

pouches. 

9. 1 x iopak Extendable Gravity Roller Conveyor - this transports 

the cartons from the carton taper to the pallet stacking station. 

The conveyor is extendable from 1m to 4m and also goes 

around corners. 

10. 1 x iopak Pack Off Turntable - this pack off turntable acts 

as a ‘lazy susan’ or buffer to collect the liquid pouches prior to 

packing into cartons.

LegAL 

VIew 

on woRkPLACe SAFetY! 

Significant time and effort has been spent by the various 

workplace safety authorities in education and advertising 

programs. Featuring graphic examples of fatalities and 

other striking injuries, the campaigns are designed to 

promote a serious message, to widen responsibility to all 

workers and to educate. 

It is a given that accidents in the workplace do occur, and it 

is the responsibility of the employer to take practical steps 

to minimise the likelihood of such deaths and injuries. This 

responsibility extends not just to employees, but also to all 

those that come onto your site, including contractors and 

customers. 

The manufacturing sector is particularly exposed to 

workplace safety claims and investigations. It is a sector 

where heavy or powerful machinery and hazardous 

chemicals are common, and vehicles such as semitrailers 

and forklifts are regularly moving about on site. The 

potential for an accident to occur is very real. 

Manufactures should take heart that the workplace safety 

authorities expect accidents to happen. However, what 

manufactures need to understand is that these authorities 

will not be sympathetic should an accident occur which 

was reasonably preventable. Education campaigns have 

occurred, and it is clearly too late to plead ignorance. 

Personal and company fines are increasing, as we see from 

the legal cases that are often brought by the regulators. 

Fines serve as a punishment, but are also intended to 

act as a deterrent and warning to others. As preventable 

accidents continue to happen, the fines will increase to 

provide greater deterrent value.

Every business is unique, and each will have particular 

requirements and present particular risks. The suggestions 

that follow are only general, but serve as a helpful overview 

of what manufactures can do to help manage their risks. 

1.Review Your Records. A simple first step for an employer 

is to review the records on employee injuries. Do injuries 

repeatedly occur in particular areas or employee groups? 

Find out why. Are there repeated issues with a particular 

piece of machinery, or even a particular worker? Investigate 

this and understand what the causes may be. If you are 

having trouble finding relevant information on employee 

injuries, consider updating your injury management 

procedures. Ensure accurate records are being kept and 

maintained in line with your legal obligations. 

2.Understand Your Workplace. This is as simple as it 

sounds. Go for a walk around the entire site, and take your 

health and safety representative with you. Take notes of 

what you observe. Are steps and ramps easily identified? 

Are pedestrian and vehicular areas clearly separated? Are 

chemicals being correctly handled? 

Talk with employees on your walk. They may identify 

problems you had not considered, or suggest additional 

safety clothing, or a guard on a machine. Your employees 

are your direct link to the practical examples of what can be 

done in your workplace to reduce liability. There are legal 

obligations on employers to discuss workplace health and 

safety with their employees. 

3.Prioritise. Review your notes following your tour of the 

site and discussions with employees. List the risk areas 

in order of priority. Take the most serious risk area that 

has been identified and start putting in place actions to 

minimise that risk. For example, replace a faulty machine or 

tool, re-paint work lines on the factory floor, replace filters 

or high visibility clothing or conduct a refresher course on 

safety for employees. 

4.Implement a Policy. An employer must not only have 

a written occupational health and safety policy, but must 

implement and uphold it.

Holding regular sessions to advise employees of potential 

risks and how to respond to incidents demonstrates that 

your business takes safety seriously. 

5.Education. Often we see cases where an injury has 

occurred as a result of someone not appreciating the risks 

of what they were doing or not being familiar with the safety 

requirements. Quite often it is a new employee who is 

injured. 

Education is essential, generally on the OH&S requirements 

at your site, and also specifically in relation to a machine or 

production line. It is not just new employees who should 

be trained, but employees who are changing their roles. 

Be especially careful where an employee fills in for a sick 

workmate. 

Review your training materials, as well as your procedures 

about when, who and how training is provided. Periodic 

refresher training is also essential - even for the most skilled 

employees. 

6.Obtain External Professional Assistance. 

The workplace safety authorities around Australia offer 

services to conduct workplace inspections, as do some 

law firms and OH&S consultants. Receiving advice on how 

to promote workplace safety is an important component of 

the overall strategy to manage workplace safety effectively. 

It is impossible for every accident to be prevented, 

but manufactures must take all reasonable steps to 

prevent accidents in what can be a hazardous industry. 

Manufactures should also document the steps that are 

taken. This should minimise both the risk of injuries and 

the impact of any workplace investigation or prosecution.

Welcome to the first of our many exposes 

on the wonders of Food Science 

and Technology and its application in 

the food manufacturing Industry. Every 

edition we will highlight an interesting 

food product and the Food Science 

and the equipment required to manufacture 

it on a commercial scale. 

In this edition we will be discussing 

emulsified sauces, specifically mayonnaise 

and the materials and methods 

to manufacture it commercially. 

PART ONE 

What is an emulsion? 

Mayonnaise is an oil-in-water emulsion 

which traditionally contains up to 

80% oil. However in our health conscious 

society lower fat options are in 

increasing demand and whilst fat free 

versions of mayonnaise are available 

they are not actually emulsified sauces 

as they lack the oil phase. 

Emulsions are made up of a dispersed 

and a continuous phase; the boundary 

between these phases is called the 

interface. Emulsions tend to have 

a cloudy appearance, because the 

PACKMATIC 


many phase interfaces scatter light 

that passes through the emulsion. 

Emulsions are unstable and thus do 

not form spontaneously, they require 

significant amounts of energy to form 

them and generally an emulsifying 

agent (such as egg yolk) to assist in 

the stable formation of the emulsion 

these surface active substances 

(surfactants) can increase the kinetic 

stability of emulsions greatly, so that 

once formed, the emulsion does not 

change significantly over years of 

storage

Sleeve Wrapper (Collator & Tunnel - all s/s) 

PROCESS 

PLANT 

NETWORK 

The Packmatic 50 ASW Automatic Sleeve 

Wrapper automatically collates products in the 

desired matrix and wraps them in film (usually 

LDPE film). It uses two rolls of single-wound 

film rolls that are sealed together by the previous 

sealing cycle and that form a single film 

curtain. The collated products are pushed 

through the film curtain and clamped at the 

other end of the sealing bar before making one 

more seal around the bundled products with 

a constantly-heated sealing bar that is 50 cm 

wide. A distribution pack of multiple products 

wrapped together in film with a bull’s eye at two 

ends is formed after this bundle goes through 

the shrink tunnel. Containers can be cylindrical, 

oval, square or other shapes. 

This system consists of an automatic right 

hand feeding sleeve/wrapper collater direct 

feeding a heat shrink tunnel. The collating section 

automatically forms bundles of bottles, jars 

etc from a single or multilane input, and loosely 

forms a packaging sleeve over the bundle. The 

package is then automatically passed into the 

shrink tunnel which forms the final package.

Xanthan and carboxy methyl cellulose) 

and pre-gelatinised modified starches 

are used in low fat products to replace 

the viscosity and bulking effect of 

the oil, they enhance mouth feel, and 

to ensure that a stable emulsion is 

formed. 

Large scale production is normally 

carried out using plant specifically 

designed for mayonnaise manufacture. 

The plant generally consist of a large 

holding tank with contra rotating agitation, 

a high shear multistage mixing 

pump, a positive displacement pump 

and an oil feed line. 

Next edition we will put our mayonnaise 

together utilising the new PPN 

1000 lt Mayonnaise Mixer and have 

a look at what other products can be 

made with mayonnaise as a base.

The cap arm passes under the chute and 

sweeps a cap onto the cap button. The 

arm then swings in under the capping 

chuck, and the chuck descends to pick 

up the cap. 

The bottles arrive at the machine by the 

conveyor where they are stopped by the 

starwheel. As the container to be capped 

is indexed by the starwheel and moved 

under the chuck, the cap arm moves 

away and the chuck descends to apply 

the cap. 

If the container is round, a clamp arm 

(in some cases pneumatic) swings in 

to grip the container whilst the capping 

operation is taking place. 

As the chuck rises again, the clamp is 

released and the starwheel returns the 

container to the conveyor, where it is free 

to pass onto the next operation.
