This is a project regarding pig feed grinding equipment in Spain. In the agricultural-rich region of Castilla y León, Spain, a mid-sized pig farm recently approached RICHI Machinery with the goal of upgrading its in-house feed preparation capabilities. The customer runs a vertically integrated operation—raising pigs and mixing their own feed formulas on-site using raw materials purchased directly from local producers.
Previously, the farm had relied on a smaller second-hand feed grinder that could no longer meet their growing production demands or quality expectations. The increasing cost of pre-milled ingredients also pushed the customer to make a long-term investment in new pig feed grinding equipment. However, rather than upgrading the entire pig feed production line at once, the farm opted to replace their most outdated piece—the feed grinder—with a RICHI single-unit hammer mill, setting the foundation for future line expansion.
The client purchased a SFSP66*80 animal feed hammer mill, which will be used as a standalone machine to crush cereals and grains for use in swine feed formulation.

This model pig feed grinding equipment was chosen for its balance between capacity, energy efficiency, and affordability. For a medium-scale pig farm, a 10–12 tons per hour output is sufficient to cover the weekly feed production schedule, with additional flexibility to expand output if required.
Spain is one of Europe’s top pork-producing countries, with a strong feed raw material base. The pig farm primarily uses the following raw materials in its pig feed recipes:
The pig feed grinding equipment in Spain is specifically applied to crush corn, barley, wheat, and soybean meal into particles with a target size between 1–3 mm, depending on whether the feed is for piglets, growers, or sows. The client has customized their sieves for adjustable fineness, which gives them production versatility across pig age groups.
This investment ensures a consistent grind size that improves feed digestibility, reduces feed waste, and supports better growth performance in pigs. The old equipment often produced uneven particle sizes and created bottlenecks in their manual mixing process.
RICHI Machinery arranged sea shipping of the hammer mill from China to Spain. The delivery was made to the Port of Valencia, one of Spain’s largest and most active ports for agricultural imports and machinery logistics. The equipment was securely packaged in wooden crates and arrived within 38 days from dispatch.
RICHI provided the customer with all necessary customs clearance documentation, a full English-Spanish instruction manual, foundation drawing, and video guides to facilitate self-installation. Virtual installation support was also provided.
The customer shared their experience after the first two months of machine operation:
“We noticed the difference from day one. The grinding consistency is excellent, and our pigs are consuming more feed with less waste. Compared to our old grinder, the SFSP66*80 runs quieter, smoother, and most importantly—it can keep up with our mixing schedule. We appreciate the professionalism of RICHI's team during procurement and after-sales. The remote support was quick and helpful when we adjusted the screen size for piglet feed. We are already considering a mixer from RICHI next year.”
This direct feedback showcases the reliability and adaptability of RICHI’s pig feed grinding equipment in real-world farming environments.
RICHI’s SFSP hammer mill series is built with swine nutrition in mind. For pig farmers across Europe, including Spain, maintaining proper grind size and consistency directly impacts feed conversion ratios and pig performance. The SFSP66*80 grinder used in this Spanish case delivers several key advantages:
Other keywords clients often search for in relation to this product include: pig feed grinder, swine feed hammer mill, pig feed crusher, grain crushing equipment for pigs, and pig feed processing equipment.
RICHI also offered advice on integrating this hammer mill into a future full-line setup, allowing the customer to plan for future equipment purchases with scalability in mind.
Spain continues to be one of Europe’s leading swine-producing nations, and efficient on-site feed processing is key to staying profitable. This project demonstrates how RICHI Machinery helps small and mid-scale farms upgrade step-by-step, even with limited budgets, by providing high-performance single machines like pig feed grinding equipment with long-term reliability.
For other Spanish farms looking to upgrade or replace aging feed mills, RICHI can supply various models from the SFSP series to match different production scales and feed material types. Whether for pigs, poultry, or ruminants, our machines are tailored to each customer’s needs.
