Finding VEGA: Furry Friends

Dogs are the best companions in many aspects of our day-to-day lives, but did you know that even man’s best friend relies on process instrumentation every day?

1. Puppy Chow

Just as humans need nutrition to grow up big and strong, our dogs need the right food to have energy for long walks and fun games of fetch. We may not feed our dogs human food, but we try to give them the most scrumptious food we can. From hard pellets to gourmet chicken stew, we have an unlimited amount of choices when it comes to what we feed our furry friends. Between small chunks for young pups and soft canned food for more senior dogs, many brands have similar processes which use VEGA radars to monitor production. The nutritional excellence of dog food is determined by continuous monitoring of the ratio of animal to vegetable fatty acids which ensures balance. The VEGAPULS 64 works constantly to ensure the highest-quality food for our four-legged family members.

2. Sound of the Dinner Bell

When you pour a scoop of delicious food into your pup’s bowl the noise makes even the calmest dog jump in excitement. The sound of pellets hitting against the bottom of the food bowl is something no dog can resist. Their ears perk up and their tails wag joyously because they know their favorite thing in the world is being poured into that dish. That canine excitement would not be possible without the metallic clink they’ve come to know and love. Our alumina applications work from the stirring tank to the powder silo to help make the aluminum food bowls found in households around the globe. So next time little Rex jumps with joy for his dinner, remember VEGA products helped make that euphoria happen. 

3. Just Add Water

Dogs are known for loving water. Between playing with a stream shooting from a hose, splashing around in puddles of mud and rain, or lapping up a cool bowl of water, they can’t get enough. Even the water we use to clean our dogs is important to us, so having peace of mind that the water from the sink or hose is clean and safe makes any dog owner happy. VEGA uses their instruments to help monitor the drinking water process all the way from the bank of filtration to your kitchen sink as you fill up your pup’s bowl.  So know when you go to fill up the water bowl or turn on the sprinkler for your pup, the water is well monitored and ready for enjoyment.
