8-10T/H Chicken Feed Crushing Machine in India

Machine Details and Model Selection Based on Indian Conditions

Based on the farm’s expected feed volume and ingredient types, RICHI recommended the SFSP66*80 model, which features:

• Rotor Diameter: 660 mm
• Crushing Chamber Width: 800 mm
• Rotating Speed: 2980 rpm
• Line Speed of Hammers: 103 m/s
• Power: 90 kW
• Grain Output: 8-10 tons per hour

The SFSP66*80 chicken feed crushing machine in India is particularly suited to farms or small feed factories producing 8 to 10 tons of crushed materials per hour—ideal for the client’s current scale and foreseeable future expansion. Its wide crushing chamber ensures consistent pulverization of fibrous and grain-based materials often used in Indian poultry feed recipes.

Raw Materials for Poultry Feed in India

In India, poultry feed formulations vary depending on region, bird type, and cost considerations. For this particular project, the customer crushes:

• Maize (Corn) – 50% of the mix
• Soybean meal – 20%
• Groundnut cake – 15%
• De-oiled rice bran – 10%
• Limestone, dicalcium phosphate, salt, vitamins, and premix – 5%

These ingredients are ground to a fine particle size between 0.8 mm and 2.0 mm, depending on the age group of chickens. Fine grinding is essential for uniform mixing and proper digestion in poultry.

India’s humid climate also influences the grinding setup; fine particles help reduce the risk of spoilage and contamination during storage. The RICHI hammer mill’s airflow system and precision screen sizing allow flexible grinding outcomes while maintaining low dust and heat output—important features for Indian conditions.

Application and Operational Benefits

The chicken feed crushing machine plays a foundational role in the customer’s feed production:

• Crushing function: Pulverizes raw grains and oilcakes into uniform particles.
• Prepares material for mixing: The finely ground material ensures even distribution of micro-nutrients and medication.
• Improves bird health and feed conversion ratio (FCR): Fine particles enhance feed intake and digestion, resulting in better weight gain and flock uniformity.
• Supports in-house quality control: By controlling grinding fineness, the customer adjusts feed texture for starter, grower, and finisher diets.

Moreover, the chicken feed crushing machine in India is designed with wear-resistant components, a balanced rotor, and an optimized feeding mechanism, making it suitable for long-term use even in remote farm areas with challenging electricity conditions.

Shipping and Logistics

RICHI shipped the hammer mill crusher machine to Visakhapatnam Port, a major seaport on the east coast of India. From there, the equipment was transported inland to the customer’s site via local freight services. All packaging adhered to export standards, with the main components protected against humidity and mechanical damage.

RICHI provided detailed installation manuals, remote video guidance, and even offered the option for on-site installation support, though the customer chose to handle it independently with local technicians.

Customer Feedback

“Before this, we always relied on third-party mills for crushing. The RICHI chicken feed crushing machine changed everything. We can now produce consistent-quality mash feed in-house, control the formula better, and avoid delays. It's surprisingly quiet, easy to maintain, and doesn’t overheat even in our summer temperatures. We’re already planning to get a RICHI feed mixer next season.”

The client also praised RICHI’s quick response time, clear communication, and professional packaging.

Why the Customer Chose RICHI Machinery

Several factors convinced the Indian farm to choose RICHI:

• Localized solution: The machine was recommended specifically for Indian raw materials and climatic conditions.
• Scalability: RICHI proposed future expansion options without overloading the client with initial investment.
• Technical support: Even for a single-unit order, RICHI delivered prompt service and technical assistance.
• Energy efficiency: The SFSP series hammer mills are engineered to minimize power consumption per ton of crushed material.
• Durability: High-quality bearings, thick crushing chamber, and alloy hammer blades ensure a long service life—even under intensive use.

Future Expansion and Service

After experiencing the benefits of in-house crushing, the client has begun planning the next phase of investment: adding a feed mixer and eventually a pelletizing line. RICHI’s modular system design makes it easy for clients to scale their production line over time.

• Customized plant design for the customer’s future feed mill setup
• Local after-sales partners for maintenance and spare parts
• Periodic consultation on feed formulation and machine operation

This level of ongoing service and industry insight is a significant value addition that positions RICHI not just as an equipment provider but as a strategic partner.
