Unplanned downtime in food processing is not just an inconvenience. It is a direct hit to your output, your margins, and your delivery commitments.
When your crushing equipment fails mid-production, everything stops. The right industrial crushers do not just process raw materials: they protect your entire operation from costly interruptions.
Built for the Demands of Continuous Food Processing

Food processing environments are unforgiving. Equipment runs long shifts, handles tough raw materials, and must meet strict hygiene standards, all at the same time.
Our PALMIA® food processing crushers are engineered specifically for these conditions. Every design decision prioritizes durability, hygiene, and uninterrupted throughput.
- Heavy-duty construction using strong bearings with labyrinth seals to prevent leaking and protect critical components
- Stainless steel manufacturing as standard, meeting the hygiene requirements of professional food production environments
- Simple, clean design that minimizes the number of parts that can fail or trap contamination
- Pneumatic output transport that moves crushed material efficiently without manual handling
These are not general-purpose industrial grinders adapted for food use. They are purpose-built food industry equipment designed from the ground up for demanding, continuous production.
How Crusher Reliability Directly Cuts Operational Costs
Every hour of unplanned downtime costs more than just lost production. You face idle labor, delayed orders, and the scramble to source emergency repairs.
Reliable industrial grinding equipment eliminates that cycle. When your crusher runs consistently, your entire downstream process stays on schedule.
- Strong bearings and hardened crossknives reduce wear and extend service intervals
- Simple maintenance design means your team spends less time servicing and more time producing
- Easy, thorough cleaning keeps machines compliant and ready for the next shift without lengthy downtime between runs
- Interchangeable steel solids allow quick component replacement when parts do eventually wear, without taking the machine out of service for extended periods
Reducing downtime is not just about the machine itself. It is about designing a crusher that fits realistically into your maintenance workflow and does not demand specialist attention every time something needs attention.
From Fresh Meat to Frozen Bones: Versatile Processing Capacity
Not all raw materials behave the same. Large frozen blocks, whole animal bones, carcasses, and slaughterhouse waste each place very different demands on your equipment.
Our meat crushers handle the full range, without compromising on throughput or reliability.
We offer two main models to match your facility’s scale:
- PBK 60: a 45 kW crusher with a capacity of up to 10 tons per hour, well suited for smaller and mid-sized processing facilities
- PBK 100: a 75 kW crusher with a capacity of 20 to 30 tons per hour, built for the most demanding large-scale production environments
Both models use a revolving crusher roll with hardened crossknives and diagonal lifters that actively feed product through the machine, keeping output consistent and predictable.
Applications include bone crushing, pre-crushing large frozen blocks before further grinding, slaughterhouse waste processing, and even biomass crushing for bioenergy plants. One machine, multiple production challenges solved.
Backed by 60 Years of Finnish Food Industry Expertise
Choosing industrial equipment is a long-term commitment. You need a manufacturer who will still be there when you need spare parts, technical support, or an upgrade five years from now.
Palmiatek has been manufacturing food industry equipment in Finland for over 60 years. We are the major manufacturer of slaughterhouse and meat processing lines in Finland, supplying facilities ranging from smaller operations to the largest industrial producers worldwide.
- Every crusher is customized and designed together with you, not picked from a generic catalog
- We provide design, installation, maintenance, and spare parts support as part of our service offering
- Our equipment has been delivered to facilities across the world, in both small and large-scale production environments
That depth of experience means we understand the real pressures of food production, and we build equipment that holds up to them.
Get the Right Crusher Configuration for Your Facility
No two production lines are identical. The crusher that works for a mid-sized meat processor will not necessarily be the right fit for a large-scale bone waste operation.
We work with you directly to configure the right solution: the right model, the right materials, the right integration with your existing line.
Getting started is straightforward:
- Reach out to us with details about your raw materials, volumes, and production environment
- We provide technical consultation and a configuration recommendation tailored to your needs
- We design and manufacture your crusher to fit your exact specifications
There is no obligation to commit before you have the information you need. Our goal is to make sure the equipment we supply genuinely fits your operation, because a crusher that is not right for your facility does not serve either of us well.
