Bepex International

333 Taft Street NE | Minneapolis, MN | 55413 | USA

Bepex is the secret behind the industry’s most challenging solids processes. For over 100+ years, we have delivered continuous solids processing equipment and systems that do what others cannot. Whether it’s a difficult material transformation, dramatically improving product quality characteristics, or delivering a more sustainable method of processing, Bepex leads the way.

Your Process Development Playground

Our greatest strength is our Process Development Center in Minneapolis, MN. This is where new ideas, products, and technologies are brought to life in a pilot-scale setting. We can design, develop, and test new continuous processing systems, making tweaks to put together the best solution for your material.

Thermal Processing

We are the experts in solids drying and thermal processing. Our customers make us their first call when evaluating a new drying project because we can make quick and accurate assessments of their material, requirements, and advise on the most applicable technology for developmental testing.

Agglomeration

With solutions for both dry (pressure) and wet agglomeration, we can dial in your density, particle size, solubility, and other key material characteristics.

Size Reduction

We offer a line of grinding equipment that can produce particles ranging from ½” down to a D(50) of 3µm. Our technologies range from large block grinders that decrease downstream cook time, to an air classifying mill capable of drying and micronizing solids simultaneously.

THINK BIG, WORK BIG, LIVE BIG

We have an appetite to build and a zeal for success. Since our first project for Western General Dairies in 1967, our annual revenue has grown to more than $2 billion, with Food & Beverage | Cold Storage | Warehouse & Distribution facilities making up a significant portion of this revenue. And we are hungry for more.

A Language All its Own

Food and Beverage facilities are built on a language of their own – where critical control means systematically identifying, assessing, and controlling health hazards – from construction to production. We speak it. Without a hint of an accent.

In fact, we are fluent in Food Processing Plant language, not just Construction language. Besides the value of understanding your product requirements, we have purchasing power with national vendors/subcontractors in dairy brick, specialty flooring, insulated metal panels, refrigeration systems, sanitary drains, low temp doors, dock equipment, and numerous other specialty construction products/trades.

Menu of Capabilities

Our company understands the needs and demands of your facility and the requirements to comply with regulatory requirements and plant specifics such as FSMA, GMP, HACCP, PSM/RMP, and other programs. The ingredients for success for our customers renovation/addition an existing facility, never cold storage facility,

Bunting

500 S. Spencer Rd., Newton, Kansas 67114, USA

Bunting is an industry leader in the design, manufacture, and sales of innovative magnetic technology, metal detection, and conveyor systems for many industries, including food packaging.

GRAVITY FREE-FALL MAGNETIC SEPARATION

Bunting’s HF Series Drawer Magnets provide powerful magnetic separation suitable for mechanical and gravity flow applications in all industries. HF Series Drawer Magnets are equipped with high-power magnetic cartridges, configured with arrangements of two or more cartridge trays that are staggered to increase contact with the product stream. HF Series Drawer Magnets come standard with our NUHI™ Neo Ultra High Intensity Cartridge Magnet.

GRAVITY FREE-FALL METAL DETECTORS

Bunting’s metal detectors sense and reject extremely small particles of ferrous and nonferrous metal while maintaining efficient product flow. The quickTRON™ 07RH is a reliable solution for powders and fine granular materials. It has a fully automatic metal detection and rejection mechanism to minimize processing interruption.

Pneumatic Metal Detection

Bunting’s pneumatic metal detection and separation equipment detects and rejects all ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, and stainless steel metal contamination within enclosed pipe systems. They are ideal for implementation in pressure, suction, or vacuum conveyor lines.

Together We Succeed

Bunting’s custom design capabilities ensure that no matter what industry you are working in, you will receive a custom designed piece of equipment that meets the exact needs of your specific application.
