Producing protein bars and snacks requires specialized equipment and high-quality ingredients. The manufacturing process starts by sourcing the right blend of protein sources, such as whey, soy, or plant-based proteins, and other essential components like fibers, carbohydrates, natural sweeteners, vitamins, and minerals.
To ensure a uniform and consistent mix of ingredients, the manufacturing process uses specialized mixing equipment that ensures accurate ingredient ratios and efficient blending while preventing contamination. After achieving proper blending, the mix is transferred to a slab line machine, which evenly spreads it onto a conveyor belt to form a long slab. Here, layers and toppings are added. The slab then goes through a roller that flattens it before being cut twice – first into several lengthy strips and then with a perpendicular cut.
