Food Equipment


Our FEI Food Equipment Division evolved internally to meet the growing demand for stringent specialty products. The majority of custom equipment manufactured by this division either packages or directly handles many of the foods you find in your local market place.

 

 

Anticipating the demand for packaging equipment, the Food Equipment Division engineered the FEI110 platform series to handle smaller product sizes or production runs at an economic cost. The FEI1000 is another platform series on the opposite side of the spectrum. This monster packages four aligned packages per cycle at a rate of 180 ppm. Quality products and packaging drive the need for higher production.

From the higher production needs arose direct food cutting equipment. Development of this solution lead to new platforms, including the FEI400, FEI500FEI610 & FEI700 series. The FEI400 platform provides a single-push horizontal-acting cutting process with fast change-over that’s easy and quick to clean. The FEI500 platform provides a single-push vertical-acting cutting process which has grown to become our most versatile platform for cutting. The versatility of the FEI500 comes from its ability to accept a wide range of harps and also a cuber attachment. The FEI610 series fully incorporates the primary actions of the two previous platforms, which result in a very rigid construction with highly functional harps.

Faith Engineering is located in the middle of the United States’ “breadbasket” — more specifically calling “America’s Dairyland” our home.

Proximity, familiarity and business opportunity inspires us to serve this industry that is so very important to our home.

We are proud of the significant presence our Food Equipment has manifested in the cheese manufacturing and conversion industry, while also serving the mid-western bakery, beverage and meat processors.
