Company: NutriBites International
Location: SHANGDONG,CHINA
Industry: Nut & Snack Processing
Challenge: Struggling with outdated machinery causing inconsistent feeding, high energy costs, and frequent downtime in their 20,000-ton annual capacity facility.
The Problem
NutriBites relied on screw feeders to process almonds, cashews, and walnuts. Key issues included:
Energy Overconsumption: Motors consumed 15 kWh/hour, inflating operational costs.
Inaccurate Feeding: Irregular material flow led to packaging errors and waste (12% rejection rate).
Production Bottlenecks: Slow feeding cycles capped capacity at 1.2 tons/day, missing seasonal demand spikes
The DSW Solution
DSW Automation implemented DSW-EXV6 Electromagnetic Vibrating Feeders tailored for nut processing:
Energy Efficiency: Reduced power use to 3 kWh/hour (80% savings).
Precision Control: Adjustable frequency (50–600 RPM) ensured uniform flow (±0.5% accuracy).
High-Capacity Output: Achieved 3.5 tons/day throughput, a 192% increase.
Durability: Stainless-steel construction resisted oil residues from nut shells, compliant with HACCP standards.
Results
Within 6 months, NutriBites achieved transformative outcomes:
✅ Cost Reduction:
Energy bills slashed by $14,000/month.
Maintenance costs fell by 60% (no moving parts).
✅ Production Leap:
Capacity surged to 4.2 tons/day, capturing 25% more orders.
Waste reduced to
