1. Improve production efficiency
   The animal feed production line adopts fully automatic/semi-automatic production equipment, which can realize a continuous and efficient production process. Compared with traditional manual operation, the automated production line not only reduces manpower input and labor intensity, but also greatly improves production efficiency and meets the needs of feed mills and farms of various sizes.
2. Ensure product quality
   In the production process of feed, the selection, crushing, mixing, granulation and other links of raw materials need to be strictly controlled to ensure the nutritional content and quality of the products. The animal feed pellet production line can ensure the consistency of the quality of each batch of products through precise metering systems and strict quality control standards to meet the nutritional needs of animals at different growth stages.
3. Reduce production costs
   The animal feed production line adopts advanced production processes and technologies to achieve efficient use of raw materials and reduce waste. At the same time, the operation and maintenance costs of the automated production line are relatively low, which helps to reduce the overall production costs and improve the profitability of the enterprise.

Animal feed production line is a factory that produces animal feed. Its process includes raw material cleaning, crushing, mixing, granulation, drying, packaging and other links. The following is a typical feed factory process:

01

Receiving and initial cleaning process

Bulk raw materials corn and soybean meal are received. The first thing to do in the initial cleaning receiving process is to remove impurities in the raw materials, and then transport them to the silo according to the plan through the receiving equipment and demagnetization equipment.

When loading and unloading, the raw materials should be checked and placed in the warehouse to ensure the cleanliness of the receiving environment.

02

Batching process

The feeder under each batching bin feeds the batching scale, and the batching scale weighs each raw material, and then transports it to the powder bin, and then adds a small amount of premix, which can improve the batching accuracy.

03

Crushing process

The crushing process refers to feeding the raw materials in the crushing bin into the crusher to crush them into powder, and then sending them to the mixing bin for standby through the conveying machinery. The purpose of this process is to control the particle size of the material.

The efficiency of the crusher designed in this process determines the production capacity of this set of process equipment. It is also the process with the highest energy consumption in the production of powdered materials.

04

Mixing process

Discharge the crushed raw materials into the mixer, then add oil to the feed in the mixer, mix all the components evenly, and mix the raw materials evenly. For the production of pellet feed, the mixed powder will be sent to the pelletizing bin.

05

Pelleting & Cooling process

The mixed materials are sent to the pelletizing chamber after magnetic separation and conditioning in the pelletizing bin, and pressed into pellet feed by animal feed pellet machine, cooled by the cooler, and screened out standard pellet finished materials by screening equipment.

During cooling, the cooling tower should be adjusted according to factors such as variety, indoor temperature and humidity, and season to achieve qualified pellet temperature and humidity.

06

Finished product packaging process

The finished feed is weighed by the packing scale in the finished product bin, packed in packaging bags, sealed with edible labels, and transported to the warehouse. In some feed production line designs, qualified pellet products enter the bulk bin and are transported out of the factory by bulk trucks.

The main commonly used equipment in animal feed production lines mainly include the following:

1. Conveying and distribution equipment:
   Mainly used for conveying raw materials, semi-finished products and finished products and conveying them to the corresponding work sections or silos. Conveying equipment can be divided into two categories: mechanical conveying and pneumatic conveying. Mechanical conveying for animal feed production line is further divided into two categories: vertical conveying and horizontal conveying.
   Vertical conveying is mainly bucket elevators, and horizontal conveying includes screw conveyors (also known as auger), scraper conveyors and belt conveyors. Distribution equipment mainly includes three-way, four-way, multi-station rotary distributors and pendulum distributors.
2. Cleaning (impurity removal) equipment:
   Mainly removes impurities in feed raw materials, especially large and medium impurities and iron impurities, to protect equipment and personal safety. Cleaning equipment for animal feed production line mainly includes screening equipment and iron removal equipment. Screening equipment mainly includes cylindrical screens, cone screens, rotary screens and vibrating screens. Iron removal equipment mainly includes permanent magnetic cylinders, plate magnetic separators, etc.
3. Crushing equipment:
   mainly used to crush feed raw materials with unqualified particle size to meet the requirements of feed particle size. According to the different requirements of the crushing particle size, the crushing equipment for animal feed production line also has different forms, mainly including hammer mill, vertical crusher, roller crusher, micro-crusher, ultra-fine crusher, etc.
4. Batching equipment:
   It is a device that mixes the animal feed raw materials in a certain proportion (weight) according to the requirements of the formula. Batching equipment for animal feed pellet production line is divided into automatic batching and manual batching. Automatic batching equipment generally uses computer-controlled batching scales. Manual batching is only suitable for small feed factories, and scales are used for batching.
5. Mixing equipment:
   It is a device that fully stirs the prepared feed raw materials to make them into a powdered feed product with qualified chaos and uniformity. Feed factories often use intermittent mixing equipment, mainly horizontal spiral blade mixers, double-shaft paddle mixers, single-shaft paddle mixers, etc.
6. Granulating equipment:
   It is a device that makes powdered compound feed into granular compound feed. There are two forms: ring die and flat die. At present, animal feed factories mainly use ring die granulators. Animal feed pellet mills for animal feed line are usually equipped with feeders and conditioners. Depending on the requirements of conditioning, they can be equipped with single-layer conditioners, double-chamber conditioners, three-chamber conditioners or double-shaft differential conditioners.
7. Cooling equipment:
   The temperature of pelletized feed is generally around 80℃~90℃, and the moisture content is around 16%. It must be cooled and hydrated. The cooling equipment uses suction to reduce the material temperature to a temperature close to room temperature, and reduces the moisture content of the feed while cooling.
8. Crumbling equipment:
   It is a machine that crushes pelletized feed into small pellets (called crumbs). Generally, roller crushers are used.
9. Grading equipment:
   It is used to separate a small part of the powder that cannot be made into particles during granulation and part of the powder caused by crushing particles with grading equipment to ensure the quality of the finished pellet feed. The separated powder needs to be sent back to the animal pellet mill for granulation. The grading equipment mainly includes rotary screens, vibrating screens, etc.
10. Finished product packaging equipment:
    Packaging can be divided into two methods: automatic packaging and manual packaging. Automatic packaging generally uses a computer-controlled automatic quantitative scale with a conveyor and a sewing machine. Manual packaging generally uses a scale plus a portable sewing machine.
11. Dust removal equipment:
    It is a device that absorbs dust and protects the environment. The principles and equipment used for dust removal and air conveying are basically the same. The difference is that one conveys dust and the other conveys materials. The air volume required for conveying dust is smaller than that for conveying materials. Their supporting equipment mainly includes: fans, pipes, dust collectors, air shut-off fans and bag filters.
12. Liquid adding equipment:
    Equipment that quantitatively adds liquid raw materials such as oil and fat to the powder in the mixer.
13. Post-ripening equipment:
    Equipment that heats and insulates the pellets from the pelletizer to ensure their degree of ripening, which can increase the stability of pellet feed in water. So it is also called a pellet stabilizer.
14. Spraying equipment:
    The fat content in the material should not be too high before pelleting, otherwise it will be too loose to make good pellets, so the amount of fat added in the mixer should not exceed 3%. If the amount of fat added in the feed formula exceeds 3%, the excess amount should be sprayed on the surface of the pellet feed by post-spraying after pelleting. Some fat-soluble vitamins will become ineffective due to ripening during the pelleting process, and they can also be dissolved in fat and added to the pellet feed by post-spraying.
15. Extrusion equipment:
    It can produce aquatic feeds with different pellet densities such as floating, sinking, and diffuse sinking. It can also be used for raw material processing to make starch lake and destroy anti-nutritional factors in soybeans. However, it should be noted that the price of extruders is high, the production cost is high, and the operation is difficult.
16. Drying equipment:
    Some feed products require low moisture, but the moisture added during the production process is relatively large (such as extruded materials produced by humidification). If these feed products are not dried, the moisture index does not meet the product requirements, so they must be dried (precipitated) using drying equipment. Commonly used drying equipment for animal feed pellet production line includes vibration fluidized bed dryer, float dryer, mesh belt dryer, etc.

In terms of practical significance, the design of a new animal feed factory is a technical task that uses a series of calculations, drawings and texts to express the construction plan according to certain goals and requirements. It is also a technical task related to politics, economy, engineering, and animal feed production technology and many other disciplines closely related to comprehensive science and technology.

During the animal feed mill design process, it is necessary to use advanced production technology, and to take the technology as the leading specialty, and the engineering geological survey and engineering survey, civil engineering, power supply, water supply and drainage, heating, heating and ventilation, automatic control, waste treatment, engineering in accordance with the basic construction procedures stipulated by various countries, industrial construction shall be carried out in a planned and step-by-step manner.

When designing the animal feed line, each design unit should make the design scope clear, coordinate with each other, provide the necessary feed production plant design parameters and conditions between each other, and avoid mutual incompatibility and disconnection.

Generally speaking, the design scope of an animal feed production line mainly includes all the engineering projects produced by the factory and the necessary projects outside the factory, such as railways and highways. It is composed of multiple designs such as master plan, animal feed making process, auxiliary production system, information system and civil engineering.

• The process design of the animal feed mill factory mainly includes the formulation of the process flow and the selection of equipment, the design of the workshop structure and equipment layout, the design of the transportation network and the ventilation and dust removal network, the design of the workshop self-made equipment and facilities, and the feed mill layout design.
• The design of the auxiliary production system of the animal feed factory mainly includes the design of the steam supply system and the compressed air system, electrical engineering design, water supply and drainage engineering design, environmental protection engineering design and animal feed machine repair workshop design, etc.
• The design of the animal feed manufacturing plant information system mainly includes the design of the laboratory testing system and the production automatic control system.
• The civil engineering design of the animal feed processing plant mainly includes the design of the buildings and structures in the factory, the design of the general plan, and the road design of the animal feed production factory.
• If the scope of the animal feed production line project is limited to the production workshop, there is no need to make a plant-wide design. However, specific requirements should be put forward on the power supply, water supply and drainage, raw material supply, storage and transportation of the workshop to obtain a reliable guarantee. The parts that cannot meet the requirements can also be included in the design scope of the animal feed factory for design according to needs.
