Case Study: How FITRAFOOD Scaled Shumai Production with a Fully Automatic 1-to-3 Production Line
Client Background & Challenges
FITRAFOOD is an established food processing company in Indonesia, supplying frozen and ready-to-cook dumpling products—including shumai (siomai/Meat dumplings)—to local distributors, foodservice channels, and retail partners.
As market demand continued to grow, FITRAFOOD faced several operational challenges:
- Insufficient output capacity from semi-automatic equipment
- High labor dependency, especially during peak production periods
- Inconsistent product weight and appearance, affecting brand consistency
- Rising labor and operational costs, reducing overall margins
FITRAFOOD needed a solution that could significantly increase output, while maintaining stable product quality and controllable operating costs.
The Solution: Fully Automatic Shumai 1-to-3 Production Line
After a detailed technical discussion and production analysis, we recommended our Fully Automatic Shumai 1-to-3 Production Line.
Why This Solution Was the Best Fit
- 1-to-3 forming system: One feeding system simultaneously produces three shumai pieces per cycle, dramatically increasing throughput
- Fully automatic operation: Dough feeding, filling, forming, and conveying are integrated into one continuous process
- High consistency: Precise weight control ensures uniform size, shape, and filling ratio
- Food-grade stainless steel structure: Easy cleaning, compliant with food safety standards
- Flexible settings: Adjustable parameters for different shumai sizes and recipes
This configuration matched FITRAFOOD’s requirements for high-volume, standardized, and scalable production.
Implementation Process: Professional & Efficient Execution
Our technical team worked closely with FITRAFOOD throughout the implementation:
- Pre-installation layout planning based on factory space
- On-site installation and commissioning
- Trial production to fine-tune parameters for local recipes
The entire process was completed efficiently and smoothly, enabling FITRAFOOD to enter stable mass production in a short timeframe.
Results & Performance Data
After the production line was fully commissioned, FITRAFOOD achieved measurable improvements:
- Production efficiency increased by approx 200%
- Labor costs reduced by over 50%, with fewer operators required per shift
- Product loss rate decreased by around 30% due to stable forming and portion control
- Consistent product appearance, strengthening brand image, and customer confidence
The new line allowed FITRAFOOD to handle larger orders while keeping operating costs under control.
Customer Testimonial
“The cooperation was professional. We will definitely consider repurchasing for future capacity expansion.”
