FUSION TECH CASE STUDIES
Fusion Tech has been helping food processing companies improve pro- duction yields, employee safety, and food safety, all while optimizing their facility to live up to its fullest potential for over 15 years. We accomplish this by working with a company’s engineering, mainte- nance, production, safety, and sanitation departments to determine their operational and industry specifications, and use that information to devel- op product flow layouts and equipment designs.
The results speak for themselves.

Fusion Tech worked with us to take our current operation of pro- cessing frozen beef trim blocks that took 2 shifts and 22 employees to reach our product goals and reduced it to a 1 shift operation manned by 7 people. They designed a new piece of equipment for us that took our semi-frozen trim blocks and gently broke them up so we could treat each piece to eliminate any bacteria. We told them what we needed the system to do, and they went to work re- searching options and designing a system that met our needs and saved us time and money. We are able to process the same amount of product in 1 shift that we did in two. I would highly recommend working with the team at Fusion Tech. - Charlie Tamburelli
