How a top pet food manufacturer achieved a higher capacity for the production of starch slurries.
Opportunity
This pet food manufacturer needed to increase capacity of bulk starch to better control production quality.
Industry: Pet Care, Starch Slurries
Our Approach
Semi-Bulk Systems designed a Process XStreamlining Solution that utilized our Vacucam® Mixer on a Tank (MOT) solution to improve slurry process efficiency. The system provides the features needed:
- Incorporates the integration of Vacucam® Mixer on a Tank (MOT) Slurry Process for Corn Starch.
- Integration of the Vacucam® dynamic dispersion technology to deliver a predetermined solids level (9-10%), fully hydrated and ready to use on a continuous basis.
- Dry delivery portion designed for effective dust containment.
The Results
We delivered Our Performance Guarantee that:
- Capacity: significant batch cycle reductions when compared to traditional batching processes.
- Operating costs: dramatic reductions in both labor and energy costs.
- Operating costs: lower maintenance, unplanned downtime with no moving parts
- Quality: batch-to-batch consistency producing no fisheyes or agglomerates
