Facility managers looking to improve operator safety and ergonomics and process or project engineers seeking accurate and consistent delivery of chemicals or ingredients appreciate the small footprint and big capabilities of fully automated makedown skid systems.
Dry chemical, polymer, and ingredient makedown skid systems are important pieces of equipment in manufacturing and industrial applications to support the delivery of target concentrations of additives to products or processes, with precision, at specific points in the production process.
Are you currently challenged with operator safety issues, high chemical and ingredient shipping costs, or variability in your ingredient concentration or rate of addition in the production line?
Or maybe your facility is space constrained in the chemical warehouse?
Facility managers looking to improve operator safety and ergonomics and process or project engineers seeking accurate and consistent delivery of chemicals or ingredients appreciate the small footprint and big capabilities of fully automated skid-mounted makedown systems.
Makedown skid systems are designed to remedy many of the common challenges operations and product lines face in food and beverage, industrial, consumer product, wastewater, and municipal facilities.
Here are just some of the inherent benefits of adding a makedown skid system to your production line:

A makedown skid system designed to fit the specific needs and requirements of your production line can help save your business time and money while improving overall efficiency.
Here are some of the features and efficiencies that makedown skids offer:
From streamlined operational safety to improved dosing accuracy, makedown skids are a valuable asset to any production line. But which industries benefit most from makedown skid systems?
There are several key industries which benefit from the use of makedown skid systems.
Some common examples of makedown skid system industry applications include ingredient makedown, chemical feed, dry chemical and polymer makedown skids.
Pulp and paper applications use chemical feed or dry chemical makedown skids to add starch into the process to strengthen the final product. Starch makedown systems with accompanying cookers provide additives at the precise process requirements of concentration and flow rate.
A polymer makedown skid is a crucial piece of equipment used in wastewater treatment plants and other industrial applications. It is important that polymer is handled with low shear to preserve its integrity while also ensuring that every particle is fully wetted to prevent clumps.

What is a makedown skid system?
A makedown skid system is designed to take a dry material and blend it with water with water to get the right concentration. Different blending methods are used depending on the product. Blended chemicals or ingredients are then delivered to the process at the correct concentration and flow rate.
What is polymer makedown?
A polymer makedown skid is tasked with preparing and mixing polymer solutions utilizing low shear methods to insure that every particle is fully wetted.
What is a chemical feed skid?
A chemical feed skid, also known as a chemical dosing, chemical metering, or chemical injecting skid, is a piece of equipment designed to inject chemicals into the desired location in a process at a precise concentration and flow rate.
Which industries typically use makedown skid systems?
Makedown skid systems are commonly used in the food and beverage industry, the pulp and paper industry, general industry, and in both industrial and municipal wastewater treatment applications.
