Everybody loves to eat and eating becomes even more pleasurable when the food is hygienic, healthy and safe. It becomes even more attractive when it comes to your knowledge that the food is prepared and managed by sophisticated and the best quality machinery and it is ready to eat instantly. The best can be done by Robotic Palletising and Robotic Packaging Machinery. No doubt, people would love such kind of food that makes cooking and eating a pleasurable experience. This is where the 'food processing industry' takes a lead from the normal food industry. Food processing makes food very easy to cook and eat. In technical terms, food processing is known as handling raw foodstuff by various scientific methods to make it something which is ready to eat.

If seen from another perspective we will see that food processing is a system of preserving food which has been used for hundreds of years now. Earlier, common methods such as use of salts and sugar and sun-drying were used to process cooked or raw food.

But now the process of food processing has evolved into complex procedures like cleaning of food, removing unwanted things like bones from meat, adding preservatives to make it stay fresh for a longer period of time, preserving them in cold storage, adding ingredients that make that food rich in nutrition and excellent in taste and last but not the least, packing them in containers that keep them eatable for a long time.

Machines like dryers, machines used for pasteurization, containers used for storing, conveyors, mixers, deep fryers, slice making machine, fillers, choppers, cutters, automatic loading system and quality examining machines are used for food processing. There is no compromise at all when there is a question of maintaining quality and hygiene of the food.

The procedure of food processing includes food material like grains, cereals, fish products, dairy products and meat products, many types of oils and all these are changed into a product called 'processed food'. The different examples of food processing includes minced meat, boiled milk, roasting, steaming, baking, making fruit concentrates, canning, drying etc. Some very popular processed food are flavored yogurts, organic food, health drinks, juices, bakery products, biscuits, chocolates, instant and flavored teas and coffees and even flavored water, ready mixes, ice cream mixes, custards and jellies etc.
