Our Lab Is Your Lab |
 Are
you looking for ways to move your
new products from development to
full production faster and more cost
efficiently?
Partnering with Admix provides
complete access to our ingredient
and application expertise and our
fully equipped pilot lab.
Visiting our testing facility
creates the ideal opportunity to
evaluate the performance of Admix
equipment on your individual
process. We offer a fully
confidential environment and work
with you to identify possible
improvements in your current
processing methods.
Our newly expanded technology center
not only streamlined equipment
set-up, but also enhanced our
analytical capabilities. You
will benefit from a thorough
awareness of product attributes
that you may not already have which
will allow you to better categorize
your end product results. For
example, you can readily determine
which viscosity created improved
mouthfeel. You may even conclude
that new equipment is not required
and that optimal results can be
achieved with just a simple change
in your current processing methods.
Don't just stop at simply testing
equipment performance... Admix will
also conduct comparative
measuring and analysis to
evaluate product characteristics
such as droplet and particle size,
viscosity, emulsion consistency,
specific gravity and flow rates.
Combining the most comprehensive
scale up techniques in the industry
with your testing data ensures that
similar performance will be achieved
when scaling to full-scaled
production models. A lab request
form must be completed prior to any
testing.

We're confident that you'll enjoy
working with Skip Godbout
in the Admix Technical Services
department. His strong background in
quality assurance
brings a unique perspective and
in-depth knowledge guaranteed to add
a new dimension to your testing
experience. Skip graduated with a
degree in biology and launched his
career as an Organic Chemist with a
PVC footwear company where he worked
with vinyl sheet stock and
decorative coatings. His quality
assurance experience began in the
beverage industry as Quality Control
Manager for Coca Cola. Prior to
joining Admix over three years ago,
Skip was the Director of Quality and
Sanitation for a dairy processor
with an emphasis on yogurt
manufacturing.
Can't make it to our lab?
Maybe your schedule is too full or
it's too costly to travel. We
recognize the importance of
pre-testing and will gladly conduct
confidential testing for you. It's
easy for you to see a verbatim
application of your process and our
mixers by simply requesting a video
of your test along with analysis
reports and samples of your product
results.
You really prefer the "hands-on"
approach, but just can't coordinate
a visit to Admix? Ask about our
Trial Equipment Program,
an alternative way for you to test
drive Admix equipment in your plant.

Not All Audits Are Bad News |
 Have
you taken advantage of the newest service we
offer to our existing customers? An in-plant
process audit at no charge!
The goal of these audits is to uncover
processing solutions to reduce your overall
operating costs and provide positive financial
impact to your business both short and long
term. Even our most skeptical customers have
been pleasantly surprised with the
recommendations provided in our final audit
reports as they often do not involve purchasing
new equipment.
Combining the depth of experience of our staff
together with the suppliers we partner with for
these audits (key ingredient suppliers and
"total process line" suppliers), we have the
practical plant experience to recommend
procedural and equipment adjustments that will
generate an immediate impact on your bottom
line.
Take a look at the sample results discovered
during some key audits in 2008:
-
Identified that a
major poultry
plant's hard water
was costing them
almost 2% in overall
yield.
-
Identified that
although a major
salad dressing and
mayonnaise
manufacturing
company had oil
chillers, the actual
oil delivery
temperature to the
mix tanks fluctuated
during peak usage
and certain product
mix times. We were
able to determine
that the fluctuation
in oil temperature
was the root cause
for their severe
product
inconsistency.
-
Identified that
minor procedural
changes would allow
a major dairy
product manufacturer
to drastically
increase their run
time between press
flush outs.
-
Identified a method
for a major tomato
products
manufacturer to
significantly reduce
their ingredient
usage with their
existing equipment
and line.

We value the confidence that you have
already placed in Admix and look forward to
the opportunity to strengthen our alliance.
Let Admix help you reduce your overall
operating costs and emerge from these tough
market conditions stronger and ready to face
the next challenge. Contact our Audit Team
Manager today!
