Dinnissen has broadened the deployability of its mixers, thanks to a mix of innovations. The mixers have been further improved in several areas, and, moreover, they explicitly consider the role of the mixer in the overall operation. That is why the validation of mixing processes have now been added to their service.

The new Z-Conveyor by Poeth was specially developed for the hygienic transport of light, fine powders in the vertical, diagonal or horizontal direction. The innovative transport system consists of plastic flights that move forward on a chain within an enclosed trough and at the unloading point “fall” gently out of the transport system.

Cooperation between Van Beek Schroeftransport and weighing specialist Penko Engineering has resulted in real time monitoring of how much product a screw is transporting. Users can, for example, decide how many grams of a particular material per minute may be supplied to the process. During operation, users can see the material speed (m/s), number of kg/s, how many kg have already been transported and the control of the flow regulation from 0 to 100 %.

Prosol’s has introduced a new product for aquaculture species. Aqua-MOD™ is a source of nucleotides, nucleosides, oligo nucleotides, ribonucleic acids fragments, peptides, aminoacids and minerals. These nutrients represent a pool of active and beneficial ingredients for aquatic animals. Their synergic effect can enhance immune system response, growth performance and disease resistance.

Cargill has announced the development of iQuatic ™, a shrimp feed produced exclusively for automated feeders using acoustic technology. iQuatic ™ feed will be available in Central and South America over the next few months. Through this acoustic technology, the automatic feed dispensers use microphones to detect when shrimp are eating, enabling the sytem to deliver more precise amounts of food when shrimp are hungry. iQuatic ™ feed is designed and formulated with ingredients that help ensure that shrimp take in all the nutrients available in a pellet.

To further minimize explosion risk in the feed industry, Van Aarsen has introduced an innovative feeding device with an integrated heavy parts separator (also known as a “stone catcher”) for its GD hammer mill. The GD hammer mill with feeding device from Van Aarsen is also ATEX-certified. Van Aarsen will present the New Feeding Device during EuroTier 2016 in Hannover.

YANG®, or yeast association new generation, is a concentrate of yeast derivatives that support animals during stressful and challenging conditions such as weaning, feed transitions and sanitary challenges. YANG can be used in most feed production processes. Trials have been conducted in controlled facilities and in commercial farms showing beneficial effects in post-weaning piglets, shrimp and fish.

The addition of L-valine (ValAMINO®) allows for further reduction of crude protein content of feed without any loss of animal growth performance. “We are now able to offer customers the five key essential amino acids for animal nutrition from a single source–along with our wide range of services.\"

Linking mycotoxin analysis to instant recommendations on usage and dosage of mycotoxin deactivators is a challenging assignment that Nutriad is addressing with the new web application MYCOMAN®, currently available online for iOS-Apple and Android-Google-Microsoft. “The user friendly app will complement information obtained after mycotoxin analyses and will instantly help feed and animal producers to manage mycotoxins efficiently and effectively.”

Kemin has announced the launch of LYSOFORTE® Liquid, a bio-surfactant, which revolutionizes the application process by directly dosing the bio-surfactant into the oil and fat application line. The product has been launched in Europe, Middle East, India and in a number of markets in Asia, and will launch in additional countries upon registration.

TerraVia, Inc. and Bunge Limited announced today that they are launching native, whole algae DHA as a sustainable specialty feed ingredient, prioritizing the aquaculture market, which currently uses approximately $3B in omega-3 ingredients. DHA, docosahexaenoic acid, is a long chain omega-3 fatty acid that is a critical element for humans and animals, including fish, for healthy growth and development.

Perfect Mineral Chelates' high bioavailability means they are an excellent ingredient in aquafeed.

Fifty percent of shrimp feed produced in Mexico in 2015 contained Calibrin-Z to fight the damaging effects of Early Mortality Syndrome (EMS) with positive feedback given by current customers. The Calibrin-Z market penetration rate was significant as the product was introduced to the Mexican market just months earlier.

RONOZYME® HiPhos (DSM) is a preparation of 6-phytase produced by a genetically modified strain of Aspergillus oryzae which is authorized in the EU for use in poultry and pigs. The applicant requested a new use of the product as a feed additive for fish

Lallemand Animal Nutrition has launched a new solution for livestock producers: YANG®, the yeast association new generation*.Trials have been conducted in controlled facilities and in commercial farms showing beneficial effects in species including shrimp and fish.

Belgium based feed additive specialist Nutriad and Ghent University have been working for two years on a project developing a prototype rapid test kit for mycotoxins.

Aqua-feed, a new, natural feed additive launched by Bionetix International, claims to reduce the incidence of disease and mortality in shrimp, fish and other aquatic species, whilst improving weight gain.

Bulk density and moisture values are essential to know after both extrusion and drying of aquatic feeds. Now you can measure them at the same time.

The Dumatec™ 8000 is among several analytical solutions recently added to the FOSS product portfolio. It offers a number of innovative features that makes the method simpler and faster for busy laboratories. Instantaneous analysis of all nitrogen resulting from the test procedure gives reliable Dumas measurements within three minutes.

Dinnissen has introduced an important software update to its Smart Mixing software tool that improves speed and energy efficiency in the mixing process, as well as the prevention of sparking and ignition hazards
