Dinnissen Vacuum Coating Technology

more than 25 years of innovation

The invention of the vacuum coating process, more than 25 years ago, was an evolution of the Dinnissen Pegasus® Paddle Mixer. In this double-axle mixer the product is raised in a fluidized zone, giving a gentle, fast and energy efficient mixing process. In experiments carried out in a special mixer under vacuum conditions high concentrations of liquid were sprayed onto the feed pellets. Upon removal of the vacuum the liquid was drawn deeply into the coated pellets.

In this way Dinnissen succeeded to gradually increase the fat content of pellets up to 42%. The vacuum coating process also helps with retaining the taste and color of the product, and with preserving the action of functional additives, such as vitamins, minerals, ameliorators, yeast and enzymes. In a Pegasus® Vacuum Coater, functional additives are introduced after the heating stage, which ensures that heat-sensitive substances remain active after being added to the product. An additional advantage of vacuum coating is that pellets aren’t greasy on the outside anymore. This increases the flow out of the silo, prevents pollution and reduces contamination at farms.

Dinnissen has perfected the vacuum technology over the past years and made it suitable for many other applications. The Pegasus® Lab Coater for example is a great addition to any research department. With this compact and easy-to-clean machine, testing several recipes becomes a much easier task as adding different ingredients and mixing small batches is possible within relative short amounts of time.

Nowadays the Pegasus® Vacuum Coater is used worldwide. Available options such as oversized hatches, hot-air treatment and CIP cleaning make it suitable for many applications. With the latest Pegasus® Vacuum Coater you can quickly switch between recipes while still complying with the strictest hygienic requirements.
