KSE Process Technology, Bladel, the Netherlands, recently supplied a PROMAS ST factory automation system to one of the feed mills of Norwegian agricultural cooperative Felleskjopet. It replaces a previous PLC control arrangement. The installation was carried out to a strict schedule in order to minimise disruption and production delays. "PROMAS ST is the right choice for us because it optimises the process control and stock management significantly," said a project manager from Felleskjopet. "In addition, our truck drivers can now easily load trucks on their own," he continued. "With the track & trace function within PROMAS ST we can precisely trace the raw materials used in the end product, and vice versa. This allows us and our customers to ensure feed safety.” The automation system is required to control the entire plant, as well as providing a management tool to ensure the production process works with maximum efficiency. The Felleskjopet plant mainly produces cattle feed as well as several special feed formulations. www.kse.nl
