DSL Systems DSL System’s AutoPilot4Feed -The leading process control, planning and information system for feed mills, pet food plants and pre-mix plants AutoPi lot4Feed is a control , planning and information system designed specifically for feed mills. AutoPilot4Feed is fully configurable and has modules for controlling all areas of a mill e.g. weighbridge, intake, blending, pellet pressing, extruder, out-loading, packing and warehouse. It may be used to control one area of a plant initially and then extended as circumstances permit. Alternatively, it can replace an older control system software while retaining the existing electrical infrastructure due to its flexibility and modern architecture.
AutoPilot4Feed runs on standard Windows PCs or Windows
Server/Client architecture for larger systems. Hardware redundancy is built-in to minimise down time and provide maximum reliability. All data is stored in an open Microsoft SQL Server database for up to 7 years and integration is possible with many types of commercial systems. The intuitive user interface is designed for use on touch screens and works well on tablets. DSL Systems provides 24 hours / 7-day support for all its systems
worldwide. For further information or to arrange a demonstration, please contact Matthew Swallow.

Feed Dynamics Microsoft Dynamic 365 ERP for Feed Mills
Feed Dynamics is system specifically built for (in fact born out of) a UK feed mill (it works in Ireland too!), built on Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations. Feed Dynamics is the bit built by Binary to take the extremely featureful but generic Dynamics 365 ERP and make it work for a feed mill. To do that we add features including: Raw Material Contracting & Position Analysis

the culmination of 16 years’ experience implementing and operating Microsoft Dynamics in the feed industry. Our customers have told us that when they buy Feed Dynamics from Binary, they are our buying our experience and understanding of the feed industry as much as they are buying the software. That’s why we’re proud that 3 feed mills went live with Feed Dynamics last year and another 3 have chosen us in 2020, plus an upgrade for our oldest client, I’Anson Brothers.
