At Automation Mechatronics (AMI), we employ a team of highly experienced process engineers with specialisation in hygienic process engineering principles. Our experience covers dairy, beverage, brewing, food, pharmaceuticals, wellness and natural beauty, and numerous other specialised sectors. We have the capability to design best practice processes that are cost effective, functional and, most importantly, food safe.
Industries We Serve
Our process engineers design hygienic process plant for:
- Dairy
- Beverages, including carbonated soft drinks
- Brewing and distillation
- Food, including health foods
- Pharmaceuticals
- Wellness and natural beauty
Typical process systems include water filtration, recipe batching, pasteurisation, clean-in-place (CIP) and sterilisation-in-place (SIP), syrup rooms, large tanks and fully automated valve manifolds, designed with P&IDs and 3D models and pre-fabricated as skids wherever possible.
Where We Work
Our process engineers are based in Melbourne, with a second office in Perth, and deliver projects in every Australian state and across the Asia Pacific region, including Asia and Fiji.
By combining on-site expertise with remote project technologies such as 3D scanning and virtual reality walk-throughs, we support your project wherever your plant is located. Our engineers have also delivered projects in the UK, Poland, the USA and South Africa.
3D Modelling
AMI engineers use tools such as 3D scanning and modelling (AutoCAD Plant 3D) to capture the current site conditions and ensure proposed designs integrate seamlessly without clashing with existing infrastructure. We can even offer virtual reality walk-through of proposed design so that operational staff can get a “hands-on” feel for proposed design solutions.
Process Collaboration
Process and automation engineers at AMI work side-by-side through all phases of the project. This ensures process design intent is fully realised in the software implementation. Commissioning and operator training is executed in the shortest possible timeframe, ensuring downtime for your operation is minimised.
Our Approach
Our general approach is to 3D model and pre-fabricate as much of the process as possible. Pre-wired and pre-commissioned skids minimise costly and often high risk site works. This ensures the highest quality of workmanship under controlled workshop conditions.
