This is a project regarding a high-efficiency micro-pulverizer for animal feed in South Africa. The machine was to be integrated with existing mixers, pelletizers, and dryers but function independently, providing flexibility in production planning and ensuring consistent output quality.
This is a project regarding a high-efficiency micro-pulverizer for animal feed in South Africa. In mid-2025, a specialized aquaculture feed manufacturer in South Africa identified a need to improve their production of high-quality fish and shrimp feed.
Their existing hammer mills could not achieve the ultrafine particle size required for juvenile aquatic animals, leading to inconsistent feed performance and lower feed conversion rates. The client was seeking a standalone high-efficiency micro pulverizer to supplement their production line, specifically to enhance the fineness of final feed products without replacing the entire milling setup.
The client decided to purchase one unit of RICHI's high efficiency micro pulverizer. The machine was to be integrated with existing mixers, shrimp feed pellet machines, fish feed extruder machines and belt dryers but function independently, providing flexibility in production planning and ensuring consistent output quality.
Name:
Feed Micro Pulverizer
Country:
South Africa
Date:
2025
Capacity:
3–4T/H
Model:
SWFL130
Main Motor Power:
132 kW
Classifier Wheel Power:
11 kW
Grinding Fineness:
80–200 mesh
The feed raw materials included fish meal, soybean meal, maize gluten, wheat flour, and shrimp meal. These materials vary in hardness and moisture content, making ultrafine grinding a technical challenge. For juvenile fish and shrimp feed, the client required particle sizes between 60–300 mesh to maximize digestibility, uniformity, and nutritional efficiency.
The equipment needed to:
After careful assessment, the SWFL130 model was selected for this project due to its moderate capacity and precise particle size control. Technical specifications are as follows:
| Model | Main Motor Power (kW) | Classifier Wheel Power (kW) | Feeder Power (kW) | Grinding Fineness (Mesh) | Output (T/H) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SWFL130 | 132 | 11 | 1.5 | 80–200 | 3–4 |
The SWFL130 unit provides the client with high-efficiency ultrafine grinding, producing uniform powders suitable for tilapia, catfish, and shrimp feed. The machine allows flexible operation, including batch adjustments for multiple feed recipes and raw material types.
The high efficiency micro pulverizer for feed in South Africa has multiple advanced features:
The pulverized ultrafine feed is used for:
The machine helped the client produce higher quality feed, reducing waste, and improving overall productivity.
The SWFL130 feed crusher machine unit was shipped from Qingdao Port, China, arriving at Durban Port, South Africa. The selection of Durban Port ensured efficient customs clearance and delivery to the production facility.
