Custom Drag Conveyor for Hot Pellets in Cargill Animal Feed Plant
Cargill is one of the largest producers of animal feed products in the world, generating over 20 million tons of feed per year. Cargill feed products support livestock production that ultimately touches the plates of more than one billion people every day. Cargill Animal Nutrition in Ogden, Utah required a custom replacement drag conveyor to handle hot pellets fed directly from their pellet mill. The existing equipment was located within a highly confined area, making the outer dimensions of the replacement drag conveyor critical. The pellets also needed to be conveyed downstream while maintaining their shape and avoiding damage. KWS designed and engineered a long-lasting custom conveying solution for Cargill.
