Chicken Feed Production Line

In chicken breeding, feed is the most basic element to support chicken growth. In addition to nutritional needs, highly processed feed has been focused on improving the production performance of chickens from the beginning to achieve efficiency optimization.

Among them, feed pellets have become an important factor on chicken growth. Richi Machinery chicken feed pellet production line is suitable for the production of various layer and broiler feeds, and is suitable for various growth stages such as young chickens, middle chickens, and large chickens.

Judging from the development of the chicken product market in recent years, the scale of the chicken and egg market has grown steadily. The population growth, per capita income growth and the development of urbanization will further promote the growth of demand for chicken and eggs, and the chicken feed industry has huge room for development.

• From customized non-standard models to multi-combination standard configuration models, RICHI is always in accordance with market trends and customer needs, constantly introducing new ones. In Richi Machinery, each chicken feed mills design and chicken feed making machine can be customized.
• Although the chicken feed production technology of different customers is different, we always follow when designing for customers: reasonable configuration, stable performance, convenient operation process, and high economic benefits.
• This chicken feed production line is suitable for broiler and laying hen feed production of various sizes, various hardness, various lengths and various types (pellet feed/powder feed/mash feed).
• The replacement of wearing parts can be completed quickly, reducing downtime and maintenance time.
• Reasonable initial chicken feed plant investment cost and low maintenance cost in the later stage.

The configuration of the chicken feed production line is carefully designed according to the on-site survey or the actual requirements of the customer, which fully reflects the rationality, effectiveness, applicability, large output, low wear and low operating cost of the chicken feed mill design. According to different technological requirements, various types of chicken feed machinery are combined to meet customers' different chicken feed manufacturing process requirements.

You can feed the chickens anything you like to make them growing bigger,so why you still need chicken feed making machines? If you feed them normal grains only or let them to find food themselves, it may take 1 year for them to grow big enough before you can eat them. Such a long time, you may start to love those chicken and do not want to eat them any more.

So what we are talking about now is the complete feed, or called formula feed, is to set up a reasonable nutrition proportion in the daily diet to meet the needs of different chickens in different growing periods. We will need different feeds when we want to table chicken to grow quickly from baby to strong cock in 3-4 months or we want make the hens to lay eggs earlier. How to make broiler feed? How to make chicken feed for layers? The following is chicken feed mill process for making layer feed, broiler feed, etc.

01

For powder & mash feed production

 

If you want to make mash feed or powder feed for laying chickens, the manufacturing process: Cleaning -- Crushing -- Mixing -- Packing (The specific process needs to be customized according to the actual needs of customers, and the chicken feed production process and chicken breeding technology of different countries and regions will be different)

Generally, we can divide the raw materials into two parts:one need to be crushed,the other need not. So when we feed material to the chicken feed production line, we will first separately feed them to different channels: particle materials go through feeding port to the chicken feed grinder, mash materials go through feeding port to the chicken feed mixer machine directly.

Usually, there are impurities in the particle material, so they will first be put into the pre-cleaner to remove the stones, clods and ropes etc. from them, and the go to the permanent magnetic tube to remove the iron part.

The cleaning system in the chicken feed production line will help you to get the clean material and ensure that there's no unexpected impurities to damage the following chicken feed making machine. All cleaned materials will be stored and discharged in the bin for the chicken feed grinder machine. As the corn grinder for chicken feed is the key chicken food machine of crushing system.

Evenly mix different materials into complete powder feed. All materials are mixed together in the chicken feed mixing machine. Usually the volume of the bin for chicken feed mixer, mixer and the buffer bin are all the same to ensure the chicken feed mixer equipment can work continuously batch after batch.

Please note that the you must make sure the materials every batch in the chicken feed mixer are accurate to your formula(so you have to weigh the material every batch before feed them to the feeding port.).

If it is OK for your budget, you can change for automatic chicken feed production line to let the computers do this. Premix feed are delivered into the chicken feed mixer directly because of the small quantity and accurate requirement.

Powder feed(or mash feed) after mixing can be called complete chicken feed now. If you want only to make mash feed for layers or other baby chickens, you can send them to the product bin to be packed.

 

02

Pellet feed production

If you want to make pellet feed, the manufacturing process: Cleaning -- Crushing -- Mixing -- Pelleting -- Cooling --Screening --Packing (The specific process needs to be customized according to the actual needs of customers, and the chicken feed production process and chicken breeding technology of different countries and regions will be different)

For chicken pellet feed, the chicken mash feed will go to the following broiler feed making machines:

Chicken feed pellet machine will form the chicken powder feed into chicken pellet feed. Usually we use ring die pellet mill for chicken feed pellet production line, by changing different ring dies of the chicken feed pellet mill we can make pellets of different sizes for different animals.

As we have add steam to the chicken pellet making machine, the pellet out from the chicken feed pellet making machine will be about 80℃, moisture 15%-16%, not suitable to pack, so we need to cool them.

Fan, cyclone, airlock and necessary pipes form a system to provide airflow for the counter-flow cooler, chicken pellet feed will be cooled in the pellet cooler and discharged. After cooling, the temperature of the chicken feed pellets will be about 2-3℃ above the room temperature and with 13% moisture more or less.

Usually we will add chicken pellet crumble under the pellet cooler machine. If we are to make small pellets for chicken, directly making it from the chicken feed pellet machine will reduce the capacity of the whole chicken feed plant and cost more energy, we can first make bigger chicken feed pellets and then send it to crumble to make it smaller.

According to customer different chicken feed prodcution types, different output configuration can be customized. We devote ourselves to undertaking all chicken feed production line with 1-100 tons per hour and to providing more value added service to all the customers.

• Dust in the chicken feed mill workshop may course serious accident,so when it is OK with your budget, do not ignore the dust collecting equipment.
• It is better for you not to produce chicken feed and cattle feed in one feed production line,that may course diseases of the animals; If you are to do so,do remember to clean all the chicken feed machines before you change the chicken feed making formula.
• Normally, pig feed and chicken feed and other animal feed can share one feed production line(not including floating fish feed but sink feed is OK), cattle feed should not be done at the same feed processing line.
  
• When you make your chicken poultry feed business plan in feed industry, you must first get the chicken feed formula you need. This will also help me to design the technical process of the chicken feed production line accurately for you.
• The distance of the fire passage cannot be less than 3.5m.
• The transportation line of the finished product warehouse and the unloading line of the raw material warehouse should be separated to avoid crossing.
• The layout of the chicken feed making plant area should meet the requirements of the production process, and the direction should be reasonable to ensure smooth traffic in the chicken feed production plant and avoid traffic jams.
• The distance between the edge of the road in the chicken feed factory and the wall of the building should be more than 1.5m.
• The distance from the edge of the road in the chicken feed mill factory area to the trees should be more than 0.75-1.0m.
• The building coefficient of general chicken feed mills is about 30%-35%, and the larger the chicken feed manufacturing plant land utilization coefficient and building coefficient, the better.
• The boiler room is arranged according to the location of the chicken feed pelletizer machine in the production workshop.
• The boiler room is generally set in the downwind direction of the chicken feed production factory area, and the boiler room should be close to the production workshop.
• From the perspective of safety, people, goods, and flow lines should avoid crossing as much as possible.

The design of a chicken feed mill should generally follow the following procedures:

1. The construction engineering department organizes or commissions feasibility studies, compiles design assignments, stipulates various design principles and design content, and selects the site of construction on the basis of preliminary surveys.
2. After the design assignment is approved and issued, carry out technical survey of the site and collect basic data, negotiate with water, electricity, road and other departments, and sign relevant engineering agreement documents.
   
3. Draw up the chicken feed mill process design plan, determine the design plan of the chicken feed plant process flow and other auxiliary systems, calculate the building area required for production and living, the consumption of various power, water and electricity and other related parameters.
4. Carry out the general chicken feed mill layout design according to the craftsmanship and other individual design methods and the surveyed site data. Reasonably arrange various buildings, various engineering pipe networks, and plant greening and beautification facilities.
5. Based on the data in the chicken feed line process design plan, carry out detailed design of each individual item and compile design documents. In the chicken feed mill design process, the various professions should cooperate and coordinate with each other, frequent research and discussion, to avoid mutual incompatibility and non-convergence. The person in charge of the design shall organize all professionals to formulate the design schedule and contact information schedule.
6. After the preliminary design documents are approved, carry out construction drawing design and chicken feed mill construction preparation.
7. Develop equipment installation and debugging procedures. After the individual project and the overall chicken feed mill project are completed, plan for stand-alone test run\linked test run, no-load test run, and load test run plan, and make trial production plan and chicken feed plant project acceptance.

Raw materials for chicken feed production in chicken feed mill plant include carbohydrates, protein, etc. When formulating chicken feed, not only must refer to the nutritional standards of chickens, but also pay attention to the appropriate mixing ratio of various raw materials.

Carbohydrate feed mainly contains starch and sugars, which can account for less than 70% of the diet mix. Corn is one of the highest energy feeds in cereal feeds, which can account for 45%-70% of the mixture. The bran has good palatability and contains a lot of protein and phosphorus, which can account for 5%-30% of chicken feed.

Barley contains high crude fiber, so the amount should not be too much, which can account for 15%-20% of the mixture. Sorghum tastes astringent, feeding too much can make chickens constipated, which can account for about 10% of the mixture. Rice bran is often used as an auxiliary material and should not exceed 8%.

Chicken feed contains 30%-65% protein, which can account for 5%-30% of the mix. Bean cakes and peanut cakes are good plant protein feeds with good palatability and comprehensive nutrition, which can account for 10%-20% of the mixture.

Because cottonseed cake has toxins, the dosage should not be too much, generally not more than 7% of the mixture. Fish meal is the highest quality animal protein, which can account for 5%-15% of the mixture. The salt content of fish meal should be calculated, and the salt content of fish meal used should not exceed 0.4% of the mixture.

Green feed mainly supplements the deficiency of vitamins, which can account for less than 30% of the mixture. The amount of various fresh green vegetables accounted for 20%-30% of the mixture. Leaf feed can account for 15%-10% of mixed feed.

Mineral feed mainly supplements the lack of minerals in the mixture, which can account for 0.3%-9% of the mixture. Bone meal mainly supplements calcium and phosphorus, which can account for 1%-2.5% of the mixture. Shell powder mainly supplements the lack of calcium, which can account for 1%-7% of the mixture. The laying hens can use more, and other chickens are best to use less.

Salt mainly supplements the lack of sodium in the mixture, and often accounts for 0.3%-0.4% of the mixture. The salt content of fish meal is also included. Gravel is often added after the chicken is 1 month old, which can improve the utilization rate of chicken feed, which can account for 0.5%-1% of the mixture.
