New high accuracy bagging system for Devenish Nutrition
Chronos BTH has secured a second order from Devenish Nutrition Limited for a high accuracy automatic packing system for their Belfast production facility in Northern Ireland. This second packing line will be a mirror image of the line previously supplied.
Devenish Nutrition is a leading edge agri-technology company that is dedicated to the research, development and manufacturing of quality premixes, pre-starters, starters and concentrates together with speciality products for the intensive livestock sector. They provide a cost effective range of products across a range of feed industry sectors and tailored nutritional services to their diverse range of customers.

The new single head packing systems will upgrade the production facility’s current manual packing system. Using Chronos BTH’s innovative bottom-up filling technology the new packing system will provide a hygienic filling solution and enhanced filling accuracies for the high value supplements.

Notable features on the OML-1030BF bagging system will include: a special servo controlled dosing tube for enhanced accuracy; top air de-aeration of the filled bags for optimum filled bag utilisation; and an integral sewing machine / crape tape applicator for reliable bag sealing.

To help meet Devenish Nutrition’s quality control procedures each packing system will include an automatic product sampler and an integral label printer / applicator located in the empty-bag magazine to ensure each bag is correctly identified and the label consistently applied in the same position.

“We have worked very closely with Chronos BTH engineers whilst selecting this particular type of packing system,” commented Dermot O’Brien of, of Devenish Nutrition. He concluded, “The high filling accuracies, coupled with the proven and reliable operating design of the filling system were all key factors in deciding to place the order with Chronos BTH.”
