This is a project about a 3t/h hay pellet press in France. To address this growing market, the customer opted to purchase a single hay pellet press unit. This strategic decision was driven by their desire to upgrade pellet production efficiency and pellet quality without disrupting their existing facility layout or cash flow.
This is a project about a 3t/h hay pellet press in France. In the pastoral regions of France, where sustainable agriculture and high-quality livestock nutrition are paramount, a mid-sized feed manufacturer recently sought to expand their pellet production capacity. The customer, an experienced operator in the animal feed sector, had been using a smaller pellet mill for years but faced increasing demand from both local dairy farms and small-scale beef producers.
To address this growing market, the customer opted to purchase a single hay pellet press unit rather than investing immediately in a full production line. This strategic decision was driven by their desire to upgrade pellet production efficiency and pellet quality without disrupting their existing facility layout or cash flow.
Their focus is on producing nutritious hay pellets, which serve as an essential feed supplement during France's seasonal forage shortages. The customer's purchase is aimed at integrating this hay pellet press in France with their current grinding and mixing equipment, improving output and pellet durability.

The CZLH520 model hay pellet press in France is well-suited for the customer's intended use, providing stable output with pellets in the preferred diameter range of 6 to 8 mm, which balances feedability and durability.
The introduction of RICHI's hay pellet machine brought several tangible benefits:
The customer's hay pellet feed is designed to meet the nutritional demands of French dairy and beef cattle producers. The typical raw material blend is:
This blend offers a balanced profile of fiber, protein, and energy, supporting both maintenance and production needs in livestock. France's temperate climate and strong hay production infrastructure provide reliable raw materials year-round, which is a key factor in pellet consistency.
Besides hay pellets, the CZLH520 hay pellet press in France can process a range of other pellet types, including:
This versatility offers the customer the flexibility to diversify production based on market demand or seasonal raw material availability.
The customer's choice of RICHI Machinery was influenced by several factors:
