This is a project about small chicken feed pellet machine in UAE. This real project story is about a privately-owned feed mill located on the outskirts of Al Ain.

This is a project about small chicken feed pellet machine in UAE. In the United Arab Emirates, local poultry farming has seen continuous growth alongside the country’s commitment to enhance food security and reduce reliance on imported chicken meat. While large integrated poultry companies dominate major supply chains, smaller independent farms and local feed manufacturers play a vital supporting role — especially in regions like Sharjah and Al Ain, where mid-sized broiler farms thrive.
This real project story is about a privately-owned feed mill located on the outskirts of Al Ain. The owner runs a modest but steadily expanding mill that supplies meat chicken feed to nearby farms. For years, the company operated mainly with a mash feed production line and outsourced pelleting to a bigger player. However, transportation costs and inconsistent pellet quality made it hard to guarantee freshness and competitiveness.
To solve this challenge, the owner decided to purchase a 1-2t/h small chicken feed pellet machine in UAE from RICHI Machinery. This ring die pelletizer allows them to produce pelleted broiler feed on-site, reduce dependency on outsourced suppliers, and build a trusted local feed brand.

When evaluating the best poultry feed pellet machine for their needs, the mill considered several models but concluded that the SZLH250 small chicken feed pellet machine matched their output goals, budget, and energy constraints.
Key technical details for this small chicken feed pellet machine in UAE project:
The mill’s owner chose this compact model because it balances output with operational simplicity. It can run on the existing power supply and steam conditioning setup without requiring major infrastructure upgrades — an important factor for many small UAE mills trying to grow profitably.
In the UAE, the poultry sector relies heavily on imported grains and protein meals. The feed mill uses a combination of raw materials that reflects availability through Jebel Ali Port and nearby Gulf suppliers:
These ingredients are mixed and conditioned before pelleting. The steam conditioner on the SZLH250 small chicken feed pellet machine in UAE ensures good gelatinization of starch in the corn, improving digestibility and helping farmers achieve better feed conversion ratios.
Before installing the SZLH250 small chicken feed pellet machine, the mill’s main struggles were:
By bringing pelleting in-house, the mill now:
The pellets are bagged in 25 kg polypropylene bags and sold directly to local farms and small poultry houses within 100 km of Al Ain.
Like most industrial equipment shipped to the UAE, the SZLH250 small chicken feed pellet machine was sent by sea to Jebel Ali Port — the region’s busiest container terminal.
From Jebel Ali, the pellet press traveled by road to the chicken feed mill’s site. RICHI arranged port handling, customs clearance, inland transport, and provided the customer with detailed offloading guidelines.
Unlike huge integrated poultry feed plants, smaller regional mills in the UAE have a unique advantage: agility. By producing 1–1.5 tons per hour, the mill can:
The ring die design of the SZLH250 chicken feed pellet machine in UAE ensures smooth operation and easier maintenance. Its compact footprint makes it practical to install in older facilities with limited floor space.
The feed mill runs the pellet press 10–12 hours a day, typically in two shifts. They pre-mix raw materials in an existing horizontal ribbon mixer, then feed the mash to the SZLH250 via a screw conveyor.
One steam boiler generates enough steam for the conditioner, helping bind the feed particles together for durable pellets. After cooling, pellets are bagged and stacked for distribution.
This setup ensures that:
When searching online, local feed makers often look for:
