2-2.5 T/H Hay Hammer Mill in Kenya

Equipment Model and Technical Parameters

Considering the customer's processing volume and typical forage in Kenya, the selected model is the SFSP66*80 hay crusher machine, which offers a balance between throughput and power efficiency suitable for medium-scale operations.

Raw Materials and Feed Application in Kenya

Kenyan livestock feed production relies on a variety of locally available forage and crop residues, which this hay hammer mill is designed to process efficiently:

• Napier Grass (Pennisetum purpureum): The dominant forage crop in Kenya, valued for its high biomass yield and nutrient content.
• Brachiaria Grass: Commonly used in mixed grazing systems and feed production.
• Maize Stover: Widely available crop residue used to supplement roughage in ruminant diets.
• Sugarcane Bagasse: Sometimes included in feed mixes after processing.
• Other local grasses and crop residues: Depending on regional availability.

The raw material typically arrives in large bales, which are broken down by a de-baler into manageable chunks before entering the hammer mill. The hammer mill then grinds the forage to a target particle size of about 1.5 mm, optimal for pellet formation and digestion by cattle and sheep.

Function and Benefits of the Hay Hammer Mill

This hay hammer mill in Kenya plays a crucial role in the feed production chain by:

• Reducing bulky forage into uniform small particles, making mixing and pelletizing more efficient.
• Handling tough and fibrous materials, such as Napier grass and maize stover, which are common in Kenyan feed formulations.
• Enhancing pellet quality and feed intake by providing consistent particle size.
• Saving energy compared to outdated or inefficient mills while increasing throughput.
• Operating reliably with minimal downtime, important for maintaining steady production schedules.

Shipping and Logistics

The hay hammer mill was delivered by sea to the Port of Mombasa, the main gateway for industrial equipment entering Kenya. Mombasa Port’s strategic location ensures smooth customs clearance and timely transport to inland feed mill locations.
