The pet food market is rapidly growing, requiring processors to find more efficient methods of operating their facilities. One UK-company realized its current screw conveyors or bucket elevator systems weren’t ideal for the new processing line it was building to handle the increased demand. Not only were operating and maintenance costs with those technologies too high, but cleanliness and product damage concerns led the company to search for a more effective conveying technology. The main challenge was to identify a conveyor technology that could also keep up with the higher throughput the new plant needed. Read the case study to see how tubular drag conveying technology addressed each of this processor’s requirements.
