trends and best practices can provide
insights into how automation is being
successfully implemented by others
in your field and where it might benefit
your company the most. Once you
have identified those areas, the next
step is to assess return on investment.
Consider both the short-term and
long-term benefits, such as increased
productivity, cost savings, improved
accuracy and safety. "
Considering future needs and demands
is also paramount.

be two to four years into the future, "
Ravichandraan said. " Work with your
marketing and product development
teams to understand your company's
goals going into the future and how
that might affect your production in
the medium and long-term. It is okay

Automation systems and robotics are extremely useful in any
manufacturing operation, but in order to leverage this technology to its
fullest extent, processors need to understand the importance of data.
" Data plays a vital role in designing, optimizing and maintaining
automated systems, " Alfredo Valadez, automation consultant
and project manager at Burns & McDonnell. " It enables precise
performance and maintenance monitoring, supports informed
decision-making, minimizes risks and maximizes ROI (return on
investment). "

According to Krupa Ravichandraan, sales product manager of
Bosch Rexroth, collecting and analyzing the right data provides
pet food processors with unlimited opportunities, from accurately
predicting equipment maintenance to aiding in personnel training.
" Data plays an important role in today's automation world and
will continue to have larger impact in improving productivity, line
efficiency, optimizing operator usage on the floor, training operators,
and even understanding which machines or processes are causing
real bottlenecks instead of relying on emotional finger pointing and ad
hoc non-standardized diagnostics, " he explained.
Outside of equipment, data can also support formulators during
processing, ensuring pet foods contain all the necessary nutrients.
" Automation can also give real-time monitoring and adjustments
if there are issues during a batch, " said Keith Wilcox, president
of Automated Process Equipment Corporation (APEC) USA. " It
can also help the hired nutritionist by giving them the information
needed to analyze any missing information needed for them to
approve the food. "

largest impact will come from long
range planning. "
With all this in mind, Ravichandraan
recommends processors prioritize automating
food quality and inspection
equipment, like scanners, X-ray machines,
check weighing solutions and
more, as high food safety and quality
is imperative amongst pet owners.
Following this, companies then can
look to automate palletizing, packing
and conveying processes, as well as storage
and retrieval systems in warehousing
before moving onto other production
areas.
