Premix Processing Equipment

Since 1992, APEC has been developing the premix processing systems to improve performance for pet food, animal feed and food processing manufacturers. Whether it is assembled from our large product line or a customized processing solution, our customers have found APEC products will improve their bottom line. In the past twenty years we have learned what challenges the premix industry faces and our in-house engineers are focused on developing solutions to meet them.

The manual process is labor intensive and can be subject to operator error. A fully automated APEC system requires minimal intervention, resulting in increased productivity and quality with reduced costs.

Custom Equipment and Systems

Many concerns we hear revolve around cost and timelines, which are natural when considering custom-designed and built equipment. Some worry that a ground-up design might not perform as expected. That’s why APEC offers engineering contracts and R&D services, including prototyping when needed, to ensure your premix processing equipment meets your exact requirements.

Each custom job we take on comes with its new design challenges. Our experience in premix processing equipment continuously improves with each custom project we take on. Are you ready to tackle a new challenge with us?

Plant and worker safety is greatly improved through the elimination of repetitive motion and exposure to harmful chemicals. Your product safety is increased because of the systems ability to provide precise ingredient control.

Manual tracking and recording of your process is time consuming and prone to mistakes. Our premix processing equipment is accepted and compliant with government regulations.

While you may maintain manual checks and balances if you wish, our automated system renders it unnecessary. It offers:

• Bar coded confirmation of ingredients to assure they have arrived at the correct location.
• Lot tracking identifies ingredients’ arrival and usage dates.
• Quality control and inventory is maintained by monitoring expiration dates through first in first out usage.
• Every transaction is Time & Date Stamped providing detailed reports of usage and production throughout the entire process.

We conduct in-house product testing to assure your requirements will be met and you are welcome to join us for the testing procedures.

Our automated premix processing equipment deliver a quick return on your investment that only grows with time.
