Development of a completely new system that eliminates 100% of manual dosing and weighing of ingredients on a feed line. The work that eventually spun out as AMABOX Systems.

A pelleting line, upgraded by 3D-scan

A pelleting line, upgraded by 3D-scan

A pelleting line lifted to state-of-the-art without paper drawings. 3D-scanning and 3D-modelling combined with process knowledge made the upgrade fast, accurate and cheap.

Micro Box Dosing, made fast and accurate

Micro Box Dosing, made fast and accurate

Innovation work on a micro-ingredient dosing system: a highly flexible, fast and accurate way of automating the smallest additions in the recipe.

Origin of the AMABOX System

(micro) ingredient handling completely reinvented.

We started AMABOX as an innovation project but it seems to have potential in most plants around the world. Today the system eliminates 100% of manual dosing and weighing of ingredients in feed, food, premix and pet food factories.
