How PSI's Continuous Screen Changers (CSC) have benefited these companies!

From Marty Danco of Wellmark, Asheboro, NC

Just ask Marty Danco of Wellmark. Marty states "prior to utilizing PSI's Continuous Screen Changer, Wellmark only produced 1200 lbs/hr of quality pellets with a slideplate screen changer. By using PSI's Continuous Screen Changer, Wellmark eliminated the loss of production that occurred when changing screens. The quality pellets produced increased by 30%." For Wellmark, this equates to 1560 pounds per hour or over 2 million additional pounds per year! According to Marty, "At least 90% of scrap was eliminated after utilizing this machine. The Continuous Screen Changer paid for itself in less than 3 months!"
