This is a project about a fish feed powder crushing machine in Japan. A specialized aquafeed producer in Shizuoka Prefecture faced challenges with their current feed grinding process. Their traditional hammer mill produced uneven particle sizes, resulting in inconsistent feed pellets, higher feed waste, and lower conversion ratios.
This is a project about a fish feed powder crushing machine in Japan. Japan’s aquaculture industry is highly advanced, focusing on high-value species such as yellowtail, sea bream, and various freshwater trout. To maintain competitive advantage, feed quality is critical, particularly the particle size of feed ingredients, which directly affects digestibility and fish growth rates.
A specialized aquafeed producer in Shizuoka Prefecture faced challenges with their current feed grinding process. Their traditional hammer mill produced uneven particle sizes, resulting in inconsistent feed pellets, higher feed waste, and lower conversion ratios.
The client decided to invest in a single Fish Feed Powder Crushing Machine, a standalone unit designed to improve the grinding of high-protein ingredients and fine additives. This acquisition was aimed at complementing their existing pellet production line rather than replacing the whole system. The client sought a solution to achieve superfine powder consistency (60–300 mesh) for more precise feed formulation.
Name:
fish feed grinder
Country:
Japan
Date:
2025
Capacity:
2–3 tons per hour
Model:
SWFL110
The install period:
1 Day
Grinding fineness:
80–200 mesh
Main motor power:
110 kW
The client is a medium-scale aquafeed manufacturer specializing in:
The primary reasons for purchasing the Fish Feed Powder Crushing Machine were:
The customer specifically chose a single unit rather than a complete line to replace their aging hammer mill used for protein-rich raw materials, improving output without disrupting existing operations.
In Japan, aquafeed ingredients include:
| Parameter | SWFL110 | |
|---|---|---|
| Main motor power (kW) | 110 | |
| Classifier wheel power (kW) | 7.5 | |
| Feeder motor power (kW) | 1.5 | |
| Grinding fineness (mesh) | 80–200 | |
| Production (t/h) | 2–3 (secondary grinding) |
The SWFL110 fish feed powder crushing machine was chosen to meet their requirement of 2–3 tons per hour, efficiently producing superfine powder from pre-crushed fish meal and other protein sources. The feed ingredients were first screened through a 2.0 mm mesh before entering the ultrafine pulverizer, ensuring optimal performance.
The fish feed powder crushing machine in Japan plays a critical role in aquafeed production. Its ultrafine grinding capabilities ensure:
The powdered ingredients produced by this fish feed crusher machine are subsequently processed through extruders or pelletizers to create high-quality feed pellets tailored to the nutritional requirements of juvenile yellowtail and trout. The fine powder also allows the manufacturer to produce specialized feeds for shrimp and other aquatic species, expanding product range and market reach.
For this Japan-based project, the Fish Feed Powder Crushing Machine was shipped via ocean freight, arriving at the Port of Yokohama. This choice ensured safe and cost-effective transportation while minimizing the risk of damage to sensitive components. Once at the port, the equipment was transported by truck to the production facility in Shizuoka Prefecture, ready for installation and commissioning.
The client selected RICHI Machinery due to the following technical advantages:
These features were particularly valuable for the client, who required highly reliable, energy-efficient equipment that could handle continuous operation while maintaining precise particle size for sensitive aquafeed formulations.
After installation and commissioning, the client shared their experience:
“We are extremely satisfied with the Fish Feed Powder Crushing Machine from RICHI. The superfine powder produced is consistent, and the machine operates quietly and reliably. It has significantly improved our pellet quality, and the integration into our existing line was seamless. RICHI’s team provided excellent support throughout the installation and training, making the process smooth and stress-free.”
The client noted that the reduction in feed waste and improved growth rates in juvenile fish were immediately noticeable, demonstrating the machine’s effectiveness and value.
This fish feed powder crushing machine in Japan is not limited to fish feed production. Its versatile design allows it to handle a wide range of materials, including:
The fish feed powder crushing machine in Japan can serve multiple purposes across industries, making it a smart long-term investment for facilities looking to expand or diversify production.
RICHI provided comprehensive services beyond just equipment supply:
This holistic approach ensures clients maximize the benefits of their investment while minimizing operational risks.
The Fish Feed Powder Crushing Machine in Japan project illustrates how a single, well-chosen ultrafine pulverizer can dramatically enhance feed quality, consistency, and operational efficiency. By selecting RICHI Machinery, the client gained a reliable, high-performance machine capable of producing superfine powder for specialized aquafeeds, improving fish growth rates, reducing waste, and increasing overall productivity.
This project highlights the importance of precision grinding in aquaculture, the value of investing in high-quality equipment, and the professionalism of RICHI Machinery in delivering solutions tailored to the needs of modern aquafeed manufacturers.
The success of this project demonstrates that even a single ultrafine pulverizer can transform production capabilities, providing long-term benefits and positioning the facility for future growth and innovation in aquafeed formulation.
