Why is pellet feed an inevitable choice?

Pellet feed is not only the key to "nutrition upgrade", but also a powerful tool for reducing costs and increasing efficiency. Compared with powder, pellet feed is safer through high-temperature sterilization, reduces waste through compression molding, and improves animal absorption rate through uniform proportioning, directly reducing the overall cost of breeding by more than 15%. Especially for high-temperature and high-humidity areas such as Africa and Southeast Asia, the storage resistance of pellet feed can reduce mold loss by 30%.

How it works

 

Pressing powdered materials into pellet feed is based on the existence of voids in the powdered materials. The powdery material is a loose body of dispersed powder particles with a certain fluidity.

Under the action of squeezing force, the powder particles with a certain temperature and humidity are close to each other and rearranged, the air contained in the powder particles is gradually discharged, the gap between each other is reduced, the bonding force increases, and the powder itself has potential natural binding substances produce binding effect, and finally the powder is pressed into pellet feed with a certain density and strength.

During the animal feed pellet machine pelleting process, the protein and sugar in the feed become pellets when heated, and the starch is partially gelatinized. The animal feed pellet machine adopts compression pelleting which uses roller and dies to compress the powder into pellet shape.

Why choose ring die type animal Feed pellet machine?

In the feed processing industry, ring die pellet mill and flat die pellet mill are two common pellet forming equipment, but the ring die pellet mill has more advantages in production capacity, pellet quality, durability and applicability, and is the preferred equipment for modern feed mills. Although for us, the ring die pellet mill and the flat die pellet mill are completely incomparable, but in order to answer some customers' doubts, the following is a detailed comparison of the two and the key reasons for choosing the ring die pellet mill:

ring die type animal Feed pelletizer

It meets the needs of industrial continuous production, with excellent pellet quality, strong durability, wide adaptability to raw materials, and supports intelligent control and expansion.

With the ring die + roller structure, the material is evenly distributed under the centrifugal force, with high production capacity (1-40T/H), suitable for continuous production on a large scale.

Ring die pellet mill pellets are more durable and retain nutrients better, suitable for high-quality feed production. The pellets are uniform, the surface is smooth, the powdering rate is less than 5%, and various specifications of 0.5-10mm can be produced.

Adopting stainless steel ring die + high-precision transmission system, the service life is up to 3000-5000 hours, the long-term use cost is lower.

It can process a variety of raw materials such as high starch (corn), high protein (soybean meal), and high fiber (alfalfa). By adjusting the compression ratio of the ring die, it can adapt to different formulation requirements. Can be integrated with PLC control system.

Flat die feed pellet machine

Flat die feed pellet making machines are generally only used in small farms or experimental production to meet temporary needs of low fiber and simple formulas.

With the vertical roller structure, the material falls by gravity, with low production capacity (0.5-3T/H), which is only suitable for small farms or experimental production.

The pellets have low compactness, are easy to produce powder, and have a high powdering rate (10%-15%). The conditioning effect is poor (temperature is usually less than 70℃), which affects nutrient absorption.

Flat die is easy to deform, the pressure roller wears quickly, and the replacement frequency is high (life is about 1000-2000 hours).

Only suitable for simple formulas with low fiber and easy molding (such as pure corn flour). High fiber raw materials (such as straw) are easy to clog the die holes. Most of them are manually operated with a low degree of automation, making them difficult to upgrade on a large scale.

2 Cleaning

Cleaning
Use screening, magnetic separation and other processes to remove impurities (such as sand, stone, metal, etc.) in raw materials to ensure the purity of raw materials and provide qualified materials for the crushing section.

3 Crushing

Crushing
The raw materials are crushed to a suitable particle size (0.5-1.5mm) by mechanical force to improve the mixing uniformity of the raw materials and the digestion and absorption rate of animals. According to the needs, feed crushing equipment such as hammer mills and ultrafine grinders can be selected.

4 Mixing

Mixing
According to scientific formula, various raw materials and additives are accurately proportioned, and efficient mixing is used to ensure uniform nutrient distribution and achieve the best feeding effect. According to process requirements, computer batching, PLC batching and manual batching can be selected, and paddle mixers, ribbon mixers, etc. can be selected.

5 Pelleting

Pelleting
The raw materials are softened by steam conditioning and pressed under high temperature and high pressure to improve the durability and palatability of the pellets and promote starch gelatinization. Different animal feed pellet machines are required to process different feeds.

6 Cooling

Cooling
The countercurrent cooling process is used to quickly reduce the temperature of the pellets and control the moisture content (10%-12%) to ensure the stability of the particles and the safety of storage..

7 Screening

Frequently Asked Questions

You may want to know the animal feed pellet machine price, the service life of animal feed pellet making machine, the compression ratio of ring die of animal feed pelletizer... Feel free to contact us to solve your questions in time.

The animal feed pellet making machine cost is usually between $10,000 and $100,000. We provide free selection consultation and customize the most cost-effective solution based on your raw material characteristics, production capacity requirements and budget. Contact us directly for the latest quotation.

The quality of pellets is determined by the following factors:

  • Single machine quality (we control)
  • Whole line design quality (we control)
  • Raw material quality (you control)
  • Recipe of feed ( both of us )

Compared with mash the advantages of pellet feed are:

  • Avoid animal picky eating. All raw materials are mixed and pressed into pellets to ensure that animals take in all nutrients.
  • By killing salmonella and other bacteria in the raw materials through steam & high temperature pressing, the feed is ensured to be healthier and the feed quality is highly improved.
  • Expensive & various minerals and vitamins are also mixed and pressed into pellets, which effectively increases the intake without wasting (if mixed in powder/paste feed, these trace elements are too small for animals to take in all)
  • If equipped with steam, the raw materials will be cooked, and the pellet feed will be easier for animals to digest, improve the absorption rate, and reduce the feed-to-meat ratio;
  • The raw materials will be cooked, which will greatly improve the palatability, making animals have a good appetite and like to eat more.
  • Easy to store and transport, good fluidity, easy to manage.
  • The return rate of selling pellet feed is high.
  • Pellet feed is a trend in the global feed market.

1-the animal feed pellet machine can work with and without boiler/steam.

2-The function of the boiler is to provide saturated dry steam, which enters the conditioner of the pelletizer through the pipeline and mixes with the raw materials in the conditioner.

3- the function of steam :

  • Kill all bacteria in the raw materials and make the feed healthier.
  • Cook the materials to make the final feed more digestible.
  • Cook the materials to make the food more delicious and greatly improve the palatability. Animals will like to eat more.
  • Add 2% moisture to the material, and the output will increase by about 5%-10% compared with without a boiler.
  • Make the material softer so that it is easier to press the material into pellets and increase the hourly output.

If your budget is enough, you can buy boiler with machines together , if your budget is not enough , you can buy boiler in future , that is no problems.

Steam is not calculated in kg, but in m³ (KG usually indicates pressure)

Steam is controlled by different valves:

  • First, through the constant pressure valve, the pressure is stabilized at 0.4Mpa in the conditioner.
  • Secondly, the amount of steam is controlled by the steam regulating valve to increase or decrease.

By observing the temperature of the material after steaming and before pelleting, you will know whether to increase or decrease the amount of steam. That's why there is a thermometer after the conditioner, by observing the thermometer:

  • Chicken feed requires 85℃
  • Cattle feed requires 85℃
  • Fish feed requires 90℃
  • Shrimp feed requires 95℃

If it is lower than the required temperature, turn the valve to increase the steam, if it is higher than the required temperature, turn the valve to reduce the steam.

So it's not complicated, we will provide training after you place an order.

  1. Raw materials : 304 full stainless steel
  2. Inside paddle: is forged ( not casting type,which to be moulded by steel water. more easily broken)
  3. Time of steaming : 20-90s per layer(adjustable )
  4. Speed : 280-300RPM
  5. Temperature of steam is required: 120-190 ℃, 0.7Mpa
  6. layers of conditioner :
    • Chicken, cattle, goat , pig : 1 layer conditioner
    • Sinking fish feed : 2 layers conditioner
    • Shrimp, lobster feed : 3 layers conditioners

For Animal Feed Pellet Machine :

  • The working principle is pressing raw materials, feed is like Compressed biscuit.
  • Mainly to make poultry feed, cattle, goat, camel feed, sinking fish feed, shrimp feed, lobster feed.
  • Process : batching , crushing , mixing ,pelleting cooling , packing.

For Feed Extruder :

  • The working principle is puffing raw materials, feed is like potato chips.
  • Mainly to make floating & sinking & slow-floating fish feed, dog feed, cat feed.
  • Process : batching , crushing , mixing , extruding , drying , coating , cooling , packing.

At the same hourly output, the extruder production line is much more expensive than the pellet production line. Because:

1- For the same hourly output, the price of a single extruder is higher than that of a single animal feed pellet machine.

2- The production line process is different, and the extruder production line requires more functional machine systems, including:

  • 304 stainless steel drying system (pellet production line does not require a drying system)
  • 304 stainless steel coating system (pellet production line does not require a coating system)
  • Larger crushing system, more expensive, because the extruder requires finer powder. (Extrusion production line needs to produce 0.18-2.0 mm powder, pellet production line needs to produce 1.2-5 mm powder)
  • Some high-quality extruded feeds require a double crushing system

The above 4 points, under the same hourly output, lead to the price of the extruder production line being much higher than that of the feed pellet production line.

Example:

  • 1-2t/h Animal feed pellet production line price: 30,000-60,000 USD
  • 0.8-1t/h Extruder production line price: 130,000 USD-170,000 USD
  • 3-4t/h Animal feed pellet production line price: 60,000-200,000 USD
  • 3-4t/h Extruder production line price: 530,000 USD-650,000 USD

Yes, extruders can also make poultry, cattle...animal feed.

However, we do not recommend it because the power consumption per ton of feed is not ideal if an extruder is used.

For example:

  • 37KW animal feed extruder: can produce 0.2-0.4 tons of animal feed per hour. (1 ton of feed requires 111KW)
  • 22KW animal feed pellet machine: can produce 1-2 tons of animal feed per hour. (1 ton of feed only requires 15KW)

We recommend adding a single pelletizing system to the production line, which is the best. The extruder and pelletizer can share batching, crushing, mixing, cooling, screening, packaging.

After combining the pelletizing system, you can produce a variety of poultry, ruminant, aquatic feeds at the best operating cost.

Materials of Ring die : stainless steel 4Cr13 /Z40C13 /Z40C14, hardness is HRC55-62

Roller shell : material is 20CrMnTi, hardness is HRC50-55

Regarding the use time of ring die and roller shell, our suggestion is:

*- If the working time is =< 10 hours per day, it can be used for 4 months.

*- After 4 months of wear :

  1. The diameter of the die hole becomes larger, resulting in a decrease in the compression rate, so the hardness of the final pellets will be softer than before.
  2. The roller shell is worn, the pressing force between the ring die and the roller becomes smaller, and the powder rate will be higher.
  3. The ring die can be fixed 1-2 times with a special tool and used for another 2-4 months. For tool information, we will provide you with photos of tools and detailed information after advance payment.

So our suggestion :

  • New: 4 months
  • Repair: 1-2 months
  • Repair again : 1-2 months

Can the ring die & roller shell of animal feed pellet machine be used longer than 4 months without repair?

  • Ring die: determines the hardness of the pellets. After 4 months of wear, the pellets will become softer. If you can accept the hardness of the pellets, you can continue to use it, unless you cannot accept the hardness of the pellets, then replace it with a new ring die. Maybe wait another 2 months, maybe another 4 months.
  • Roller shell: The new one has a molding rate of about 98% and contains only 1-2% powder. But after 4 months of wear, the powder contained in the pellets will increase. If you can accept it, you can continue to use it until you can no longer accept the powder rate. Maybe wait another 2 months, maybe another 4 months.

The answer is no.

1- But better ventilation needs to be ensured so that raw materials and finished feed can be stored well.

2- After the feed pellets pass through the cooling system, the moisture content of the pellets is about 10%, which is dry feed, and its warranty is:

  • *- Summer and rainy season: 60 days
  • *- Winter and dry season: 90 days

3- Animal farmers (your customers) prefer to buy fresh feed, so it is best to sell it in a fresh state as soon as possible. (Like human food , more fresher is more better)

4- For production management, the less finished product inventory is good, indicating that the management is more successful.

The best management is 0 finished product inventory, which means that marketing and production work are done excellent, and all feed production is based on upcoming orders, which is the best management in marketing.

  • *- There are fewer finished products in inventory, which also bring you the best cash flow.

So 99.5% of customers do not build a dedicated cold storage warehouse.

Therefore, whether from fresh feed or from factory management, the less final feed stock is more better. (rather than the more feed stock is more better)
