Reduce product waste with measurement instrumentation for dry pet food

Once a batch comes out of the cooker, wet and dry pet food products typically take different finishing and packaging paths. Dry pet food often goes to an extruder which works the mixture into a dough and shapes the product into the proper sized pieces. Once shaped the sized pieces pass through a series of dryers or ovens on a conveyor. These dryers can be heated with steam, but gas-fired units are also very common. It is crucial to retrofit pet food dryers with accurate measurement instrumentation to help accurately measure natural gas flow. Next dry pet food is sprayed with various coatings to add nutrients and flavors to the product. Since coating is relatively expensive, coating systems should be instrumented with flow meters and pressure transmitters to ensure the desired amount is being added.
