18.03.2013 Dense phase dog food conveying at Nestlé Purina

Air-Tec system, the specialist in dense phase pneumatic conveying based in Calderara di Reno, Italy, has designed and manufactured a tailor-made system for pneumatic conveying of pet food. This has been installed and commissioned at a factory belonging to Nestlé Purina, the leading producer of premium pet foods. The solution includes a collection hopper placed upstream of the pneumatic transporter, a vessel and a conveying line that moves the product towards two hoppers for packaging which are connected to a filter. Air-Tec system has acquired considerable experience in cost-efficient pet food handling. With conveying installations of this type, the company attaches importance to preserving the material integrity of the pet food during transport and to avoiding product damage which can cause dust generation. www.air-tec.it
