We will be exhibiting at the FOOMA JAPAN 2026 International Food Industry Exhibition from June 2 to June 5, 2026!

Reduce drying time by 20% and cut costs! Achieve energy savings by reducing electricity and steam consumption. Cold smoking, hot smoking, and smoking of meat, fish, and cheese are all possible.

Smoking is a method of preserving food by exposing it to smoke, which enhances its shelf life and adds a unique flavor. Typically, drying is performed before smoking, and the "Smoke House" from Higashimoto Kikai can reduce the time and cost associated with this process. 【Features】 ■ 20% reduction in boiler fuel consumption (compared to manufacturers) ■ Uniform drying in a short time thanks to the reversing flap (no smoke unevenness) ■ Time savings and over 2% yield improvement with the steam smoke generator (compared to manufacturers) ■ Layout design tailored to customer space ■ Various smoke generators available ■ Fully automatic cleaning system included as standard ■ A wide range of products from handmade restaurants to food factories ■ Domestic parts and controls with after-sales service We exhibited the combination smoke generator at FOOMA JAPAN International Food Industry Exhibition 2023/2024! ■ One unit can produce two types of smoke: steam smoke and normal smoke! *If you are interested, please feel free to download the PDF or contact us.

• Other processing machines

The Higashimoto Kikai mixer has been newly equipped with a cooling function in its lineup thanks to the complete cleaning of the sealing section!

Through our partnership with Air Liquide Japan, we can efficiently utilize liquid nitrogen for stirring and cooling. This is suitable for cooling products such as nuggets, meatballs, and patties in the next process of the molding machine. The seal part of the stirring blade's rotation axis can be easily disassembled for daily cleaning. We are committed to a high-hygiene design that prevents water accumulation. All components and controls are made in Japan, allowing for quick responses to any issues. 【Features】 ▶ Stirring and cooling using liquid nitrogen Reduction of cooling time (up to 1/3) Stirring possible at temperatures below 0°C (down to -4°C) ▶ Disassembly and cleaning of the seal part ▶ Complete peace of mind with fully Japanese-made products ▶ Intuitive operation with a combination of touch panel and lever switch ▶ Pursuit of the golden ratio between blade angle and tank volume to accommodate various products ▶ Blades are welded structures, eliminating concerns about foreign objects without bolts, etc. ▶ Interlock mechanism included ▶ High-hygiene design that prevents water accumulation *If you are interested, please feel free to download the PDF or contact us.

• Food Processing Equipment

Dispersion, dissolution, and emulsification of powders and liquids. Vacuum tank installation allows for degassing operation! A powder dissolver that can be utilized in the fields of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and chemicals.

The powder dissolving machine "Powder Mixer" combines a sharp pump with powerful shear force and a rotary pump that enables stable liquid delivery even under vacuum, creating a sharp pump circulation system that efficiently disperses and dissolves powders in liquids, and can even emulsify. In the food sector, it features high emulsification power and a sanitary structure, using a vacuum tank to remove bubbles generated in the pickle during circulation, achieving efficient emulsification of powders and liquids. It can be utilized not only in the food industry but also in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and chemicals. Our company can also design a pickle manufacturing system centered around this product. We offer an optional CIP cleaning system that prevents contamination through automatic cleaning. 【Features】 ■ Time Reduction Utilizes a large rotary pump and dynamic pressure to shorten powder suction time. ■ Bubble Removal Removes bubbles in the liquid through the combination with a vacuum tank. ■ Separate Addition Allows for separate addition of powders and liquids. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

• Mixer/agitator

High precision injection, safety, operability, and cleanability! Achieving stable injection.

This product achieves high-precision and stable injection with its uniquely developed triple needle double needle design, allowing the needles to rotate without any issues. Additionally, the needle coupler is equipped with an O-ring-less coupler as standard, eliminating concerns about foreign substances and preventing oil leakage without the use of hydraulics. 【Features (Excerpt)】 ■ Safety The holder, which can move up and down, is surrounded by guards, and safety sensors are installed at the input and output sections for peace of mind. ■ High Performance Stable and accurate liquid injection is possible through a piston pump that combines uniquely developed needles with a servo motor and ball screw. ■ Cleanability The cleanability burden is reduced by a disassemblable transport system and an automatic foam cleaning device. *If you are interested, please feel free to download the PDF or contact us.

• Other food machinery

Instantly crush frozen materials! A machine that can crush frozen products into fist-sized pieces.

This product is a frozen crusher that achieves stable crushing processing with its crushing claws. It can crush frozen materials at -20°C instantly. Due to its structure, the crushed product falls down, leaving no residue inside the machine. Additionally, it is made entirely of stainless steel, allowing for complete overhauls. You can use it for a long time with the same performance as when it was first introduced. 【Features】 ■ Safety ■ High performance ■ Cleanability *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

• Crusher

Inheriting the rigidity of a highly successful conventional grinder! Reducing the risk of metal foreign objects with a non-contact type.

The "Press Grinder" from Higashimoto Kikai is a grinder specifically designed for chopping salted raw materials. It can be directly connected to the injector outlet, allowing materials to drop directly into the hopper. Since it does not require any transportation means such as wagons or conveyors, it achieves labor-saving and drying efficiency. Additionally, because the plates and knives are used without contact, it reduces the risk of metal foreign objects, which is a particular concern with grinders. 【Features】 ■ No transportation means such as wagons or conveyors are required ■ Plates and knives used without contact ■ Reduced risk of metal foreign objects ■ Made entirely of stainless steel *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
