This is a project about a grain expansion extruder in Indonesia. This case focuses on an Indonesian client, a medium-sized poultry and piglet feed manufacturer based in Java. The client was facing challenges with outdated roasting and milling equipment, which limited throughput, caused uneven gelatinization of grains, and restricted expansion into higher-value product lines.

This is a project about a grain expansion extruder in Indonesia. Indonesia is one of Southeast Asia's largest agricultural producers, with abundant supplies of corn, soybeans, cassava, and sorghum, making it a prime location for feed and food processing industries. Local companies are increasingly investing in modern processing technologies to produce high-quality animal feed, plant protein ingredients, and pre-processed grain materials for snack and convenience food production.
This case focuses on an Indonesian client, a medium-sized poultry and piglet feed manufacturer based in Java. The client was facing challenges with outdated roasting and milling equipment, which limited throughput, caused uneven gelatinization of grains, and restricted expansion into higher-value product lines.
After a careful assessment, the client decided to purchase a single grain expansion extruder. The goal was to upgrade their raw material processing capacity, improve the digestibility of feed ingredients, and support the production of pre-cooked grains for plant protein flour and animal feed pellets. This was a standalone purchase, meaning the extruder would operate independently, without immediately forming a complete production line. The decision allowed them to modernize part of their operation without the high costs of a full-line installation.
Name:
grain extruder machine
Country:
Indonesia
Date:
2025
Capacity:
1.6–3.8 T/H
Model:
RCYP200G
Main Motor Power:
132 kW
Screw Diameter:
200 mm
Feeder Specification:
WLQ240-1300
The client is a specialized feed manufacturer, producing:
The reasons for purchasing the single grain expansion extruder were clear:
This allowed the client to increase operational efficiency, produce higher-quality feed, and explore new products for the plant protein market in Indonesia.
Indonesia’s abundant raw materials suited the client’s extrusion needs:
The client sought a machine capable of handling both dry and wet grains, given seasonal fluctuations in moisture content.
Based on production needs, the client selected the RCYP200G wet-type grain expansion extruder. Specifications were carefully matched to their operations:
| Main Motor Power | Screw Diameter | Feeder Power |
|---|---|---|
| 132 kW | 200 mm | 1.5 kW |
| Feeder Specification | Modulator Power | Soybean Output |
|---|---|---|
| WLQ240-1300 | 7.5 kW | 2.8–3.8 T/H |
| Corn Output | ||
|---|---|---|
| 1.6–2.2 T/H |
The RCYP200G grain expansion extruder in Indonesia provided sufficient capacity for mid-scale production, enabling the client to process multiple grain types efficiently. Its flexible modular design allowed for switching between soybean, corn, and cassava with minimal adjustments, reducing downtime and maximizing productivity.
The grain expansion extruder in Indonesia produces puffed corn, soy, and cassava for:
Puffed grains are easier to digest, enhancing animal growth performance and feed conversion rates. The pre-cooked nature of the grains reduces feed preparation time and improves feed quality consistency.
The client also produces soy and cassava flour for:
The extrusion process gelatinizes starches and improves protein digestibility, making the ingredients suitable for both food and feed applications.
Other local feed manufacturers and snack producers benefit from ready-to-use puffed grains, allowing smaller operations to access high-quality raw materials without investing in their own extrusion equipment.
All RICHI machinery destined for Indonesia is shipped via sea freight. The primary port of arrival for this project was:
Jakarta’s Tanjung Priok Port is well-equipped for handling industrial machinery, including heavy extruders. Equipment arrived with full installation kits, spare parts, and manuals, ensuring a smooth commissioning process.
The grain expansion extruder offers several benefits over traditional roasting and milling methods:
These features made RICHI machinery the preferred choice for Indonesian feed producers seeking reliable, high-capacity extrusion technology.
RICHI provided comprehensive on-site support, including:
The client valued RICHI’s hands-on approach, as engineers ensured the machine was operational with maximum efficiency from day one.
Six months post-installation, the client provided feedback:
A feed production supervisor commented: “The grain expansion extruder has transformed our raw material processing. We now achieve consistent, high-quality puffed grains and flours. RICHI’s technical support and training were exceptional, making the installation smooth and the operation trouble-free.”
Encouraged by these results, the client is planning to purchase a second extruder to expand production capacity and explore innovative feed formulations.
This case demonstrates the impact of a single RICHI grain expansion extruder:
For Indonesian producers searching for grain expansion extruder in Indonesia, multi-grain puffing machine, or feed and snack extrusion equipment, RICHI Machinery offers high-quality, reliable machines and professional support.
This project illustrates how a single, well-designed grain expansion extruder in Indonesia can enhance operational efficiency, product quality, and business potential, proving itself a valuable investment for feed and plant protein processors in Southeast Asia.
