Solution adds storage bins

GAME has built a facility for a dry pet food manufacturer. The client was installing an extrusion and coating line and required a transfer system and intermediate storage and screening facility prior to packing to avoid hold up in production.

GAME developed a solution which meant the client had two extra product storage bins, each with a capacity of approximately 14 tonnes of extruded product from the coolers, filling via a new UNITRAK conveyor. Each had a metering belt feeder discharge into a UNITRAK conveying system to the existing packing line. All contact parts to the plant were in stainless steel.

The second part of the project was to supply two vacuum line return systems to a twin tote station for reuse in the blending plant. These picked up fines from the sieving and drying system within the new plant.
