Dinnissen Process TechnologyPremix production in the feed plant

The production of premixes is being focussed on more and more

lately. The premix is an essential part of any feed-recipe, containing

the essential additives that give the end-product the desired taste and

nutritional qualities. A

production area where

recipes are changed

often, to accommodate the various products processed in one plant. To

ensure product quality, hygiene standards are of upmost importance.

Dinnissen Process Technology specializes in the development and

production of process technologies and equipment for the feed&aquafeed,

food&pharma, pet food and chemical industries. One of the fields we are

a specialist in, is the Premix industry. Dinnissen offers an extensive range

of products for the Premix producer. Stand-alone machinery, such as

the most hygienic Pegasus® Mixer for quick and efficient mixing results

Feed Compounder July/august 2017 Page 57

and the Pegasus® Vacuum Coater with which to add additives in coated

layers, but also complete solutions including pneumatic transport and

Big-Bag emptying. Many of our premix-lines are built around a vertical

concept; vertical discharge gives less contamination and saves energy

due to gravitation forces. The raw materials are transported to a higher

level, discharged into a mixer, and after mixing put into bags on the

lower level. With 70 years of experience we have become experts in

designing, producing and installing hygienic processes in those areas

where contamination is unacceptable.

Wynveen InternationalVersatility in feed processing

Wynveen International

B.V. is a leading Dutch

company, specialising in

the design, manufacture

and ins ta l la t ion o f

complete mills for the animal feed industry.

With a knowledgeable, experienced and enthusiastic team, the

company focuses on the development and construction of high-quality

innovative equipment and installations for animal feed, aqua feed and

improvement plans.

Van Mourik started in 1990 as a mechanical installation company.

By strategic take-overs and natural growth the company has become

a unique specialized neutral integrator employing 150 FTE with its

focus on feed milling and premix process. The clients value our neutral

position in the engineering studies and process advice.

An example of the approach is a recent request of an independent

client that needs to study an increase of its production by 25%. A

dedicated team from van Mourik consisting of process specialists

that have their own expertise in mechanical and electro technical

control scanned the process of the client. Combined with the clients

goal Van Mourik makes a future process plan with a neutral advice

on the equipment. This time it resulted to a concept change from an

additional grinding/mixing tower to an upgrade proposal for an existing

production line.

Of course this approach can be the backbone of a bigger

investment in a complete new production line to become future proof.

The van Mourik group offers to help clients in the UK and Ireland with

this approach to achieve efficiently and effectively their future goals.

pet food manufacture. In addition to turnkey projects, our core products

are hammer mills, ribbon and paddle mixers, double-shaft paddle

mixers, rotary sifters and coaters for liquids (vacuum and atmospheric).

Approximately 80% of our products are exported.

In order to guarantee its high quality standards, Wynveen

assembles and tests all its key equipment in-house.

Wynveen always aims to fully understand customer requirements,

working in partnership with customers and using all our accumulated

knowledge and experience to deliver the optimum, often highly

innovative, technological solution. That’s why our company motto is:

‘Versatility in feed processing’.
