Common Material Flow Problems in Pet Food Production
Contamination and Spoilage
Residual buildup inside vessels provides a breeding ground for bacteria and other microorganisms.
Blend Uniformity
Poor material flow throws off mix proportions, impacting the texture and nutritional balance of pet food.
Cleaning
Fines must be fully cleared before the next run. Manual cleaning increases downtime, while product flushing raises material costs.
AirSweep: A Proven System to Eliminate Material Flow Problems
AirSweep improves flow across all mined materials, from powders to dense rock.
It operates without impact or vibration, preventing the metal fatigue often caused by air cannons and vibrators.

Pet Food Company Switches to AirSweep
Elmira Pet Products faced ongoing flow issues, with feed blends bridging at the bottom of their bins. Vibrators and pneumatic hammers couldn’t fix the problem—operators still had to strike the bins with sledgehammers and climb into the two-story vessel to clean it.
After installing AirSweep, blockages were cleared quickly and safely. According to the team, ‘Initial results have been positive, and the AirSweep units have been easily integrated into our automated cleanouts.‘
Why AirSweep Outperforms Other Flow Aids
Many ingredients used in pet food production tend to clump, bridge, or adhere to vessel surfaces.
Conventional flow aids like vibrators and fluidisers are often ineffective, leading to equipment wear and added maintenance.
