Sampling Equipment for the Food Industry
Reliable and automated sampling for food ingredientsIn the food industry, accurate, repeatable, and hygienic sampling processes are essential for quality assurance. WEMO-techniek develops and manufactures automated installations for inline collection of product samples from free-flowing bulk solids such as granulates, powders, and other dry raw materials; during reception, processing, and packaging process stages. Our solutions align with the requirements of modern food production: reproducible samples, traceability, minimal manual handling, and integration within existing lines. Where required, our systems can be supplied in accordance with your specific hygiene and safety guidelines, including versions compliant with relevant NEN, ISO, and ATEX specifications.
Experience in the food industry
With more than 25 years of experience, we understand the day-to-day practice of food manufacturers. Our sampling solutions are used for a wide range of products, including:
- grains and flours
- sugar and salts
- rice and seeds
- cocoa- and coffee beans and related powders
- additives, flavorings, and micro-ingredients
- instant bases, binders, and mixes
These materials require controlled, representative sampling without the risk of contamination, product loss, or process interruption. Thanks to our modular equipment, we can tailor each solution to your installation, flow characteristics, and desired sampling frequency.

Hygienic reliability and customized solutions
Our automated inline samplers ensure consistent quality, minimal manual handling, and full traceability. By directly packaging and coding samples, integrity is maintained and sampling fits seamlessly into your procedures. Because every product flow has different requirements, from flow behavior to available installation space, we design our systems modularly and customer-focused. With in-house engineering, stainless steel fabrication, control technology, and software, we can configure the installation specifically for your process, with options for:
- sampling at silo inlets and outlets
- pneumatic conveying systems
- mixers, blenders, and dosing lines
- bag and big-bag unloaders
- one or multiple sampling points within the factory
The result: a practical, low-maintenance solution that remains reliable over the long term and can be integrated into your production process without disruption.
