When it comes to your processing plant, efficiency is everything. Producing pet food, animal feed or specialty ingredients, every minute of downtime, inconsistent mix, or wasted product chips away at your bottom line. That’s why optimizing your plant’s production process is essential to staying ahead of the game while producing output when demand increases.
At APEC, we understand the challenges that manufacturers face, which is why we have developed solutions to help you improve processing plant efficiency.
4 Tips for Improving Plant Efficiency
1. Automate Where It Matters Most
Automation is an effective way to streamline your operations and reduce labor costs. With APEC’s automation systems, such as the Micro Ingredient System and the Mistcoater Liquid Coating System, they help to give you fill control over mixing, batching, coating and more. Not only does this help boost speed and consistency, but it also simplifies the process.
2. Improve Formula Control
Formula control is crucial when it comes to food processing. Even in the pet food and animal feed industries, getting your formula just right and responding to changing tastes can help you set yourself apart from your competitors.
By improving your formula control, you’re reducing the time it takes for you to adjust and make changes. With APEC’s BatchBox, you’re put in the control seat.
