These machines form a critical part of preparatory food processing workflows.

Palmia machines & product types

Palmia Grinders

Palmia grinders are designed for reliable and efficient grinding of fresh and frozen raw materials.

Palmia Grinder Series 160

  • Compact grinder for fine and medium grinding
  • Suitable for meat, fish, fat and soft bones
  • Configurable with different hole plate sizes and knife arrangements
  • Designed for hygienic operation and easy maintenance

Palmia Grinder Series 250

  • Heavy-duty industrial grinder with large hopper and self-feeding screw
  • Suitable for meat, offal, by-products and fat
  • Flexible configuration with different hole plates and feeding options
  • Designed for high throughput industrial production

Palmia Crushers

Palmia crushers are used for primary and secondary size reduction before grinding or mixing.

  • Primary Crushers – break down large or frozen raw materials into manageable pieces
  • Secondary Crushers – further reduce product size for consistent downstream processing
  • Impact-type Crushers – designed for high throughput and efficient pre-processing

Crushers improve grinding efficiency and ensure smooth, continuous product flow.

Palmia Mixers & Blenders

Palmia mixers are engineered for thorough and consistent mixing of food masses with varying viscosities.

Palmia Single Shaft Mixer (SB Series)

  • Available in a wide range of capacities, from small to very large volumes
  • Configurable with spiral, ribbon or paddle mixing tools
  • Designed for mixing, blending and homogenising heavy and viscous products
  • Robust stainless-steel construction for industrial environments

These mixers are commonly used for blending ingredients prior to grinding or forming.

Material Handling & Support Equipment

Palmia also supplies supporting equipment to complete processing workflows:

  • Belt, screw and chain conveyors
  • Vat lifters and handling systems
  • Storage and buffer solutions

This equipment enables seamless integration of Palmia machines into automated production lines.

How Palmia technology works

Palmia machines use proven mechanical processing principles:

  • Grinders reduce raw materials using cutting knives and hole plates to achieve controlled particle sizes
  • Crushers apply compression and impact forces to break down large or frozen materials
  • Mixers use rotating shafts and tailored mixing tools to distribute ingredients evenly
  • Material handling systems transport product hygienically between process stages

These principles ensure consistent quality, efficient throughput and reliable operation.

What is Palmia specialised in?

Palmia specialises in industrial mixers, grinders and crushers that provide:

  • uniform particle size and mix consistency
  • reliable processing of fresh and frozen raw materials
  • robust performance in continuous production
  • easy integration into complete processing lines

Palmia machines are ideally suited for processors producing meat products, fish products, dairy ingredients, vegetable preparations and pet food, where dependable pre-processing equipment is essential.
