Whether stationary or mobile, manual, or fully automatic, indoors, or outdoors: How you receive your raw materials for pet food production depends on you or your individual circumstances. But this much is safe to say: Zeppelin Systems is always the right choice Our raw material receiving systems are specifically designed to meet the needs of your industry. Choose freely from the full range of pneumatic conveying methods as well as big bag and bag emptying stations. Of course, the technologies can also be easily intercombined if required.

The best storage solution is always the one that causes the least headaches: optimally tempered raw materials, protected from oxidation or other harmful influences that will be discharged without clumping. All this is reality with the hygienically designed silos and storage tanks developed by Zeppelin Systems. By using the proven "first in - first out" principle, both powdered and liquid materials are handled absolutely gently. Last but not least, our storage systems are especially quick and easy to clean, providing your company with a valuable time benefit. 

As you must very well be aware of, in pet food production, we are dealing with frequently changing raw materials with varying properties which often call for different conveyor system solutions. On the one hand, there are the rather easy-to-handle bulk materials which, thanks to our LeanTec flight conveying process, can be quite efficiently fed into downstream processing. In the case of fracture-sensitive bulk materials, the particularly gentle DenseTec process again fully shows its advantages and what it is capable of: Here, the Zeppelin System AQU air volume control system keeps the “kibbles” from breaking by extremely throttling the conveying speed.

As with human food, it is also important to avoid cross-contamination of pet food as far as possible - especially with regard to possible allergic reactions. Therefore, it is best to play it extra safe when it comes to weighing and metering: with the MicDos manual, semi-automatic or fully automatic small component system, the MinDos medium component system, the MacDos fully automatic high-performance system or the KOKEISL mechanical discharge and dosing module. This way you feed your product perfectly prepared into the following extrusion, forming and drying lines - all fully compatible with our components, of course.

In these final process steps of pet food production as well, Zeppelin Systems technologies add the final touch in the right places. With the help of our dense phase systems, for example, your product is transported extremely gently to the cooling or packaging plant. For the subsequent storage of your products, you can also rely on the quality of our state-of-the-art silo systems - including permanent monitoring and control options.
