This is a project about sheep feed mixers in New Zealand. A mid-sized feed production company in Canterbury decided to invest in a SLHSJ1.0A Sheep Feed Mixer to improve their feed blending efficiency.

This is a project about sheep feed mixers in New Zealand. New Zealand’s sheep farming industry is renowned for its wool and lamb production, particularly in regions like Canterbury, Otago, and Waikato. Local farmers and feed manufacturers focus on producing high-quality, nutrient-dense feed to improve growth rates and wool quality.
A mid-sized feed production company in Canterbury decided to invest in a SLHSJ1.0A Sheep Feed Mixer to improve their feed blending efficiency. Previously, the company relied on small, manually operated mixers, which led to uneven feed consistency, particularly when mixing fibrous materials like lucerne hay with grains and premixes.
The client purchased this standalone mixer as a replacement for their outdated equipment, aiming to standardize sheep feed quality while maintaining flexibility in batch sizes. This investment was specifically for improving the mixing stage and integrating seamlessly with their existing grinding and chopping equipment.

The customer is a feed manufacturer supplying high-quality sheep feed to farms across the South Island. Their goals included:
The SLHSJ1.0A Sheep Feed Mixer was chosen due to its compact design, reliable performance, and suitability for mixing various feed types under New Zealand’s temperate climate.
The SLHSJ1.0A double-shaft paddle mixer machine was selected based on the client’s production needs:
The double-shaft design ensures efficient axial and radial movement of ingredients, producing homogenous feed even when mixing coarse and fine materials.
New Zealand sheep feed typically incorporates locally available and high-quality ingredients:
The SLHSJ1.0A sheep feed mixer in New Zealand ensures that these materials are uniformly blended, promoting optimal nutrient distribution for lamb growth and adult sheep maintenance.
The sheep feed mixer in New Zealand operates effectively in temperate climates, maintaining performance despite seasonal variations in hay moisture and fiber content.
The SLHSJ1.0A Sheep Feed Mixer was shipped via ocean freight to the Port of Lyttelton, the main port serving Christchurch and surrounding regions. RICHI Machinery handled all aspects of shipping, customs clearance, and inland delivery to the feed production site in Canterbury.
The client began producing high-quality, uniform sheep feed immediately after commissioning.
This sheep feed mixer in New Zealand has allowed the client to standardize feed quality, improve animal performance, and expand their supply to nearby farms.
“The SLHSJ1.0A mixer has transformed our feed production. Lucerne hay and grains blend perfectly, and each batch is consistent. The RICHI team’s on-site support made installation seamless, and the mixer is very reliable. Our sheep are performing better, and we’re seeing a noticeable improvement in wool quality.”
The client sees RICHI Machinery as a trusted long-term partner for sustainable and efficient sheep feed production in New Zealand.
The SLHSJ1.0A sheep feed mixer in New Zealand helped the client achieve consistent feed quality, increase production efficiency, and strengthen their competitive position in New Zealand’s livestock feed industry.
