What Feed Separators Do and How They Improve Animal Feed Quality and Safety
Key takeaways Feed separators remove foreign material that quietly ruins feed batches. Cleaner feed reduces animal risk, downtime, rejects, and audit stress. Screens, magnets, and air systems help, but have gaps often. Electrostatic separation targets fine contaminants that traditional animal feed equipment misses. Use placement, KPIs, and cleaning design to maximize ROI today. Most feed plants don’t lose money because of one dramatic failure. They lose it because of small, repeatable issues: inconsistent particle mix, mystery “grit” in finished product, customer complaints that trigger investigations, and rework that steals capacity. This is where a feed separator earns its keep. As part of your feed processing equipment, separation reduces physical hazards, stabilizes product consistency, and tightens quality control without turning production into a slow crawl. Better yet, modern feed separation technology , especially electrostatic separation, helps you catch materials that ...
