Pellets quality control in the feed industry

Pelletizing is a widely accepted way of preparing feed. Numerous input variables must be routinely monitored and adjusted to ensure maximum productivity and consistent product quality. During this step, control of moisture, as well as other critical product attributes (e.g., fat and protein) is considered as a requirement to maintain and increase product consistency. With the installation of a BUCHI NIR-Online® process analyzer after the pelletizing step, pelleted products composition is monitored and documented in a fast, simple, and reliable way. Within milli-seconds, several parameters such as protein, moisture, fat, starch, crude fiber, and ash are continuously, simultaneously, and accurately measured.
