Discuss My ApplicationExplore All Equipment

Applications across: Grain Handling • Feed Mills • Premixes • Animal Nutrition • Seed Processing • Flour & Cereal Ingredients • Bulk Ingredient PackagingMaterials we handle: Wheat, corn, barley, oats, rice, flour, bran, soybean meal, grain meals, mineral premixes, vitamin powders, feed pellets, oils, molasses, and feed additives.

Empty bags and containers with less dust

Charge bagged ingredients, vitamins, and premixes with less lifting and dust.

Equipment: Bulk bag unloaders, bulk bag conditioners, bag dump stations, box & drum tippers, and sealed connectors.

Stop leaks at transfer points

Reduce powder leaks at mixers, sifters, feeders, and weighing points.

Equipment: BFM snap-in fittings, spigots, blanking caps, weighing bellows, flexible hoppers, breather socks, and Siftex sleeves and connectors, selected for the material and operating conditions.

Move material through the plant

Move grain, meals, pellets, and powders between receiving, storage, and production.

Equipment: Flexible and rigid screw conveyors, vibratory conveyors, bucket elevators, tubular cable conveyors, pneumatic/vacuum conveying, and thermal conveyors, selected for the material and duty.

Fill bulk bags cleanly and accurately

Fill suitable ingredient and feed products with less dust and more consistent weights.

Equipment: Bulk bag fillers, bulk bag loading connectors, weighing systems, dust extraction, and filling arrangements for bulk boxes and drums.

Feed and dose at the right rate

Maintain consistent addition of major ingredients and minor premixes.

Equipment: Volumetric and gravimetric feeders, screw feeders, vibratory feeders, rotary airlocks, and gate & diverter valves.

Screen out lumps and oversize

Remove lumps, oversize, and unwanted material from suitable ingredient streams.

Equipment: Vibratory screeners, classifying and scalping screens, sieves, and deblinding systems, matched to particle size, moisture, and required separation.

Mix and blend consistently

Produce more consistent dry blends and suitable liquid supplement preparations.

Equipment: Dry mixers and blenders, high shear liquid mixers, homogenizers, emulsifiers, disintegrators, dissolvers, and powder/liquid mixing systems for suitable formulations.

Load bulk transport with less dust

Load suitable bulk ingredients and finished products with less spillage and dust.

Equipment: Retractable loading spouts, dust-control loading arrangements, gates, diverters, and associated conveying equipment for suitable truck, railcar, ship, and stockpile duties.

Remove tramp metal and recover value

Remove unwanted metal to protect processing equipment and product quality.

Equipment: Permanent and electromagnetic overhead magnets, magnetic head pulleys, drum magnets, and metal detectors; eddy current separators for suitable non-ferrous recovery duties.

Break lumps and refine particle size

Reduce suitable ingredients to the particle size needed by the next process.

Equipment: Lump breakers, hammer mills, fine grinders, and air classifier mills. Selection depends on hardness, abrasion, feed size, temperature sensitivity, and the target final size.

Capture dust at the source

Capture dust at unloading, transfer, mixing, and packaging points.

Equipment: Dust collectors, bin vents, dust collector retrofits, cyclones, filter receivers, scrubbers, and severe-duty cyclones, selected for the material and exhaust duty.

Know when bins and tanks are full

Know when silos and ingredient bins are full, low, or empty.

Equipment: Point level switches and continuous level sensors and transmitters for bulk solids in bins and silos, and liquids in tanks and vessels.

Collect samples with less interruption

Collect suitable ingredient and product samples for quality checks.

Equipment: Automatic samplers for gravity flow, pneumatic lines, and static material, matched to the material and sampling requirements.

Prevent freezing and maintain temperature

Prevent freezing and maintain suitable oil, molasses, and utility-line temperatures.

Equipment: Britech heat trace cables, temperature controls, sensors, and accessories, selected for the pipe, insulation, temperature, and site conditions.

Get bins and hoppers flowing

Address bridging and uneven discharge of meals, powders, and premixes.

Equipment: Bin activators, Air Sweeps, vibrators, vibratory feeders, and live bottom screws, selected for the material and hopper conditions.

Address combustible dust hazards

Review combustible dust protection for the actual grains, meals, and additives handled.

Equipment: Explosion vents, flameless venting, suppression, and isolation systems. RTS can coordinate a dust hazard analysis (DHA) and application review with specialist partners.

Handle process liquids and additives

Transfer, dose, filter, and mix suitable liquid feed ingredients and supplements.

Equipment: Liquid mixers, liquid filters, level sensors, liquid feeders and dosing pumps, transfer pumps, tanks, vessels, and heat exchangers, matched to the application.

Coordinate equipment and startup

Coordinate handling improvements, capacity additions, and retrofit projects.

Support: Application review, equipment selection, supplier coordination, installation planning, commissioning assistance, troubleshooting, and DHA coordination with specialist partners where relevant.

Match the Equipment to Your Application

Material, bulk density, particle size, moisture, required throughput, conveying route, recipe accuracy, product fragility, and dust characteristics.

Send a photo, sketch, or layout if available. We coordinate with manufacturers to review suitable equipment, available testing, and the requirements of your selected configuration.
