MASS SPIN COATER - Revolutionary patented system
The pet has become a true member of the family and the end customer, his owner, is increasingly oriented towards high-quality food in terms of well-being, quality and pleasure. PLP takes up this challenge by developing systems that can translate market needs into real products. The treatment and coating system, patented as MASS SPIN COATER, is the new and revolutionary system for coating and adding additives onto solid products. Through an integrated torsion transducer and a processor of Coriolis force data, the MSC is capable of identifying the mass delivery rate of solid prodcts (pelets, flours , croquettes). This permits a proportional control for adding doses of additives for the process. The MSC guarantees the uniformity of the finish products and thanks to reduced dimensions and weight, installation is made easy at any point of the system, be it on the transport piping in the drop, or at the end of production directly onto the vehicle load. It is used for applying either powder or liquid additives: - Fat : for adding vegetable oils or fat in general. For adding molasses and other products largely used on the finished products - Enzymes : for adding liquid enzymes and powder enzymes directly onto the finished product, to avoid cross contamination between the various products and to avoid waste due to degradation of the enzymes during the production of feed. - Powder condensation : Fine powders, in an environment saturated with the same, cause serious problems such as explosions and subsequent fires , as well as serious respiratory problems for personnel and, last but not least, damage to the plant. which remain in the production cycle without creating further problems - Humidification: For the treatment of humidification in raw materials with the addition of water and acidifiers with retroactive checks of humidity present in cereals - Treatment after pelletizing : The addition of medicines in the production of feed is normally carried out in the mixing pase with contamination problems and loss of active ingredients due to mechanical and thermal stresses. With the MSC it is possible to add antibiotics, coccidiostats, vitamins etc, whether in liquid or powder form. This process is possible thanks of the utilization of Seal4feed , a filming product from ARDA Innovations product of ARDA INNOVATIONS. by PLP System Source: All Pet Food

Continuous Coating: High retention time
The coating of pet food croquettes is an important phase of the process, as the external covering of a croquette is the initial contact with the animal as well as the main point of reference that the customer will trust. The coating phase must be carried out to: Obtain color homogeneity in all croquettes Reduce oil loss and greasy look and feel Improve the distribution and homogeneity of palatant and flavoring additives. Reduce disinfection problems in the coating process CONTINUOUS COATING BENEFITS Pro: High-level of homogeneity (CV) can be obtained even with the addition of low amounts, being more flexible and kind with the production and the product itself. Requirements for a successful application: Performing croquettes dosing: The dosage must be carried out using continuous gravimetric weighing systems, not volumetric. The variation of the incoming product flow must be adjusted and stabilized by the proportioner to have a uniform output. Covering: The team must be as gentle as possible with the product but should also guarantee good mixing homogeneity. The retention time is essential when high amounts of oils are added, and should not be less than 60 seconds. Atomization: Continuous atomization is a real challenge, especially when the product flow varies. Standard nozzles are always exposed to dirt and blockages. PLP recommends SMOG Technology for perfect atomization in any condition and viscosity. *Typical diagram of a continuous coating installation In addition to the points mentioned above, there is another very important factor during the coating process, which will result in a more homogeneous final product: HOLDING TIME Homogeneity is also related to the absorption of fat by croquettes. As for the process, this can be increased thanks to the combination of heat and croquette retention in the mixing phase in the covering. The MT series is equipped with heating chambers that maintain a controlled temperature inside the machine, while the retention time is increased by: Adjustment of the angles of the vanes Adjustment of the speed of the rotary axes Internal shock absorbers RETENTION GATE PLP has developed an automatic check gate, located at the outlet of the machine. It is suitable for stopping the croquette flow and releasing it when product accumulation reaches a certain level inside the machine. Thus, it significantly increases the retention time, up to 180 seconds inside the MT machine. For more information visit the PLP Systems WEB or contact this EMAIL. Source: PLP Systems

PLP Systems pilot plant for continuous coating
There was a key change once a continuous coating test plant was developed in our company that can reproduce the full capacity of the industry demands, to minimize the difference in results between a laboratory test compared to actual production. This internal continuous coating test plant is used for: Technological innovation of PLP and know-how to compete in the market with the application of pellet coating. Customers looking for creative applications are available to perform testing and developing new products for your pet food by coating them with powders or flakes such as spices, vegetables, cheese, flavors, nutritional agents, etc. Too to coat semi-moist or baked pet food. Customers who want to test PLP technology before purchasing the system can perform the test of the complete coating line. The pilot plant can be adapted for different products with a production capacity from 300 kg / h to 15 ton / h, managing different densities. It is equipped with a precise gravimetric continuous dosing of the main product (croquettes) carried out by means of a weighing tape or a weighing thread. Dosing of liquids by pump and flow meter and dosing of powders by weight loss feeders. All controlled by the automation and proportional dosing adjusted by frequency control drives. The test plant can be integrated with 3 different PLP coating technologies: DRUM ROTARY; COVER WITH DOUBLE AXLE BLADES; MASS SPIN COATER. ROTARY DRUM The latest development over the more traditional rotary drum, this machine is specially recommended for semi-wet products, small extruded or granulated pellets and lower production capacity. The special corrugated shape of the drum increases the rotation of the product, at the same time protects it from damage and reduces waste inside the machine, making it a perfect machine to be used in food application or with special kibbles for pet food. CONTINUOUS COVER WITH DOUBLE AXLE PADDLES It is our most widely used machine for standard pet food production and has received the majority of R&D improvements during the last years. There are different models that can cover all required production ranges with high liquid inclusion rates or fats. The focus of the machine is the retention time and this is achieved by regulations of speed independent of the axles, internal dampers and automatic check valve in the output of the product. The retention time in standard pet food production it can reach up to 200 seconds. MASS SPIN COATER Compact continuous cover used to add micro liquids up to 1%. The MSC integrates a continuous precision weighing technology, based on Coriolis forces. Thanks to a nozzle special is able to obtain a perfect homogeneity even when the inclusion rates are less than 0.1%. Source: PLP Systems
