Milling automation
Your feed mill, automated from receiving to shipping — to gain capacity, food safety and compliance. NIVEK automates the entire chain: grinding, dosing and formulation, pelleting, bagging and conveying, with multi-batch and cross-contamination management at every step.
FeedMatik
Designed by MJ SYSTEMS, FeedMatik is a manufacturing execution system (MES) for bulk processes — a turnkey solution covering every phase of transformation. NIVEK deploys it, integrates it with your equipment and supports you, with FlourMill for least-cost formulation and Premix for precision micro-dosing.
- Least-cost formulation: recipes, nutritional values and labels
- Precision micro-dosing — premixes, minerals, concentrates
- Full traceability of every batch, exportable to your ERP (NAV, Odoo, SAP)
- According to MJ SYSTEMS, automated mills gain 5 to 20% in production capacity
1 · Receiving
Receiving scheduling, truck weighing, automatic pit control, smart conveying, contamination management, sampling and full traceability.
2 · Grinding
Automatic control of hammer and roller mills, automatic "keep full" mode and sampling.
3 · Dosing and formulation
Fully automated ingredient dosing, production schedule, contamination logic and automatic flushing, guided manual additions on the touchscreen.
4 · Pelleting
Fully automatic scheduling and pelleting, end-of-cycle sequence, contamination control and die flushing, post-pelleting liquid applicator (PPLA).
5 · Conveying
Smart material conveying and shared-route management.
6 · Bagging and shipping
Automatic, semi-automatic or screen-assisted truck loading, contamination management and full traceability.
+ Custom
Every mill is unique: we adapt the system to your equipment and your reality.

Automated grinding and roller mill
Situation — The grinder and the roller mill ran in manual mode, on separate starters.
What NIVEK did — We redesigned the electrical room and the control system: sensors added, programming and commissioning. A “keep full” mode holds the silos full from grind level setpoints — normal and critical. When the particle size changes, the adjustment stays manual, so the system asks the operator to confirm it has been made.
Automated two-pit receiving
Situation — Receiving ran entirely in manual mode.
What NIVEK did — We automated all of it: two receiving pits, bulk-to-bulk transfers and debagging — from bags to bulk.
Small technical problems come up during our peak periods, and NIVEK has always been able to solve them.
NIVEK commissioned our bagging unit and configured all the equipment.
