3-4T/H Hay Hammer Mill in Brazil

A mid-sized livestock and dairy farm in the Mato Grosso do Sul region recently invested in a hay hammer mill in Brazil to upgrade their feed processing operations.

3-4T/H Hay Hammer Mill in Brazil

OVERVIEW

This is a project regarding a hay hammer mill in Brazil. Brazil, as one of the world’s largest beef producers, has a significant demand for high-quality forage processing equipment. A mid-sized livestock and dairy farm in the Mato Grosso do Sul region recently invested in a hay hammer mill in Brazil to upgrade their feed processing operations.

Prior to this investment, the farm primarily relied on small-scale hammer mills and manual chopping to process tropical grasses. These methods resulted in uneven particle sizes, limiting feed efficiency and pellet quality. To overcome these issues, the farm purchased a single SFSP66*100 hay hammer mill, which integrates seamlessly with their existing bale breaker and feed dryer setup.

This is a new acquisition rather than a replacement, allowing the farm to experiment with high-capacity forage processing and improve feed uniformity without interrupting existing operations.

  • Name:

    hay crushing machine

  • Country:

    Brazil

  • Date:

    2025

  • Capacity:

    3–4 tons per hour

  • Model:

    SFSP66*100

  • Main Motor Power:

    110 kW

  • Raw Materials:

    Brachiaria grass, signal grass, and oat hay

  • Final product size:

    2–3 mm particles

Customer Profile and Purpose of Purchase

The customer operates a commercial livestock farm producing both beef and milk for regional distribution. Their main objective in acquiring the SFSP66*100 hay hammer mill was to:

By choosing a single hammer mill, the client could integrate it into their existing production line, allowing them to gradually expand capacity and evaluate the machine’s performance before scaling further.

Raw Material Specifications and Preparation

The Brazilian farm processes Brachiaria grass, signal grass, and oat hay, commonly grown in Mato Grosso do Sul. Occasionally, the farm mixes small amounts of corn stalks for fiber enrichment.

Key preparation steps include:

  1. Bale breaking: Large forage bales are broken into manageable chunks (50–100 mm) using a bale breaker
  2. Moisture control: Freshly harvested tropical grasses have 18–22% moisture content, which is reduced below 15% using a rotary dryer to ensure smooth milling
  3. Particle size reduction: The SFSP66*100 hay hammer mill in Brazil converts the raw material into 2–3 mm particles, ideal for cattle feed pelleting and mixing

The selected SFSP66*100 model crusher machine has the following specifications:

This setup is ideal for a medium to large livestock operation, balancing high throughput with precise particle size control.

Equipment Functionality and Advantages

The SFSP66*100 hay hammer mill in Brazil offers several advantages:

This hay hammer mill in Brazil is critical for pellet feed production and direct feeding, ensuring that beef and dairy cattle receive high-quality, digestible forage.

Operational Impact and Benefits

After installation, the client observed significant improvements:

The SFSP66*100 hay hammer mill in Brazil proved essential for efficient, high-volume forage processing, improving both operational efficiency and livestock productivity.

Logistics and Delivery

The hammer mill was shipped via sea freight to the Port of Santos, Brazil’s primary import hub. RICHI Machinery provided full support including:

This ensured immediate operation upon arrival, minimizing downtime and maintaining continuous feed production.

Customer Feedback
