Japan ·
Satake is a Japanese group that develops food processing technology, with a particular focus on the three main staple grains: rice, wheat and corn. Its history began in 1896, when founder Riichi Satake developed Japan's first power-driven rice milling machine. Today the group is organised into rice, flour, food, environmental system and industrial machinery sectors, and it supplies everything from single machines to complete processing plants.
Satake's equipment works after the harvest, preparing grain for sale or for further food production. Drying and storage systems bring paddy and grain to a stable condition; rice milling lines remove husk and bran; wheat and maize milling equipment turns grain into flour and grits; and optical sorters use cameras to reject discoloured grains and foreign material. The group also offers analytical equipment and an analysis service for grain quality. For a mill, recovery, losses of good grain and throughput are the key measures of a line.
Size of the business
Satake reports supplying machinery and products to more than 150 countries. This shows how far its sales reach, not where it has its own factories.
What does the company offer?
Satake offers grain processing machines and complete lines, milling technologies, optical sorting and solutions for rice, wheat and corn.
How should a buyer make contact?
Satake's group website lists its sales contacts. Enquiries work best when they describe the grain, required finished quality, capacity and timing.
