The benefits are enormous. Design times are reduced while the detail of design and the quality of presentation have increased. Our catalogue database allows rapid preliminary 3D designs to be produced, before commitment is made to material purchase or final plant layout.
Process Engineering
As well as being experienced in designing processing lines for most known food products, APV is also a valuable partner to customers when it comes to designing innovative processing lines for entirely new products.
The safe and hygienic processing of food products is becoming ever more important as public awareness of food safety continues to increase. Therefore our plant design is based on the latest international standards and recommendations for hygienic design.
We make use of the newest plant design tools such as 3D modelling and plant walk facilities, which provide enhanced possibilities for customers and engineers to review the virtual plant model before the design is finally decided upon.
Project Management
The design, procurement, supply, installation and commissioning of food processing plants incorporating the latest equipment, automation and services, call for an exceptionally high level of project management skills.
APV boasts a wealth of project managers whose experience provide reassurance through every phase of a project acting as your single point of contact for all matters. APV has developed and refined the necessary expertise to ensure that projects are completed to specification, on time and to budget. This approach leaves you free to concentrate on your business while we take good care of your project.
We assemble a multi-disciplined team, drawing on skills from across our world-wide group of engineers to suit the particular project and technology involved. We ensure continuity by maintaining the same team through all stages of assembly, installation and commissioning.
Where process partners or sub-contractors are involved, we take the lead in keeping tight control through the use of systems such as merchanted equipment specifications and similar control documents and procedures.
Service Engineering
APV's capabilities in engineering naturally also include electrical and utility design, which along withour strong process engineering and automation engineering capabilities provides for total engineering solutions.
The electrical design and the utility design (including design for steam, water, compressed air & other necessary services for the processing plant) is made with a view to optimising the total engineering solution.
We are highly conscious of the demand for environmentally acceptable utility services. Energy optimisation through sound design principles is a natural part of our dairy work and waste minimisation as well as health and safety issues are always in focus.
