Pet Food Industry
Pneumatic Transport Systems have a high degree of applicability in the handling processes of raw materials related to animal consumption. OGA has specialized in the last decades in designing systems for solid handling with the concept of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) for their proper implementation in production processes.
Each development implicitly incorporates basic concepts of protection and safety against cross-contamination, accumulation points, ease of equipment cleaning, protection against breakage in finished products, traceability, and increasingly stringent finishes in line with industrial demands.
Advantages of OGA Pneumatic Transport Systems
In addition to the extensive portfolio of commercial references, OGA systems can pick up the product from an origin point and transport it with a single system throughout the production plant, combining vertical and horizontal paths interchangeably. This is possible due to the use of a single pipeline equipped with long-radius bends to adapt to any process, allowing multiple route deviations to reach various and distant destination points.
Furthermore, we are committed to complying with HACCP, BPM, and FSSC 22,000 regulations, endorsing comprehensive pneumatic transport solutions for the food industry and rigorous quality guidelines.
Our systems ensure the preservation of the product’s aroma.
Handling of Ingredients in the Animal Industry
OGA immersion processes have facilitated the handling of multiple materials associated with animal production. These processes demand optimal engineering developments to safeguard product properties and optimize overall production yields according to specific needs. The highlighted ingredients in this production originate from both animal and plant sources, in addition to the use of minerals, vitamins, and amino acids.
Complementarily, there are requirements in the implementation of systems for handling cereals, salts, and sugar, which are essential components of achieving a robust and quality product. The manufacturing process also involves the addition of additives that strengthen the final composition. In this regard, OGA provides comprehensive solutions for handling preservatives, antioxidants, and colorants, whether presented in granular or powder form.
Furthermore, there are complementary processes derived from the main systems, including:
- Supply of Bulk Tipping Platforms
- Silo Weighing System
- Inventory Control
- Transportation of Delicate Products
- Transportation of Mixed Products
- Handling of Big Bags and Sacks
- Solid Dosing to Mixers
- Movement of Highly Abrasive Products
- Material Handling Systems under ATEX Regulations (Upon customer request)
- Feeding into Storage Silos via Pneumatic Transport
- Storage Silos
- Product Feeding into the Process
- Sieving and Classification of Solids
- Transportation of Products Susceptible to Demixing
- Preservation of the structure of Pet Food
