Bröring automates manual additive with dosing system

Germany-based feed producer, Bröring is automating its manual additive through the use of Alfra, a flexible container components dosing system (FCCD) by KSE Process Technology, thereby increasing flexibility, efficiency and capacity in its production.

The FCCD will be used for dosing raw materials for the production of animal feed, especially premix and micro components, automating the entire manual additive process. This multi-functional equipment also allows Bröring to dose between 100 grams and 150 kilogrammes with only a single machine.

BRÖRING will use existing transport containers for the storage of the components. Building a new silo tower is completely unnecessary through the use of existing transport containers and big bags. Raw materials will be transported via the ALFRA FCCD through a pneumatic pulse phase transport, also supplied by KSE, into a mixer.
