Animal feed pellet mill machines are widely used in the feed industry and are suitable for feed mills and farms of various sizes to process various feed raw materials into pellets. This processing method can increase the nutritional content of the feed, improve the taste and digestibility of the feed, and also facilitate storage and transportation.
The pellet feed is usually a compound feed, which is based on the requirements of various varieties, growth age, production performance and other aspects, and in accordance with nutritional standards and feed formulas. Various feed ingredients are ground into powder, mixed thoroughly, and then compressed into pelleted feed by animal feed pellet making machine.
Advantages of pellets made by animal feed pellet machine：
The quality of feed products determines the level of breeding, and feed processing methods are one of the necessary prerequisites to ensure the quality of feed products. Animal feed pellet mill is an important equipment in feed processing.
With the development and progress of the feed and breeding industries, feed processors have higher and higher requirements for feed pelleting. As a result, new high-capacity animal feed pellet presss suitable for the production of high-quality pellet feeds in animal feed factories of all sizes have emerged.
Pressing powdered materials into pellet feed is based on the existence of voids in the powdered materials. The powdery material is a loose body of dispersed powder particles with a certain fluidity.
Under the action of squeezing force, the powder particles with a certain temperature and humidity are close to each other and rearranged, the air contained in the powder particles is gradually discharged, the gap between each other is reduced, the bonding force increases, and the powder itself has potential natural binding substances produce binding effect, and finally the powder is pressed into pellet feed with a certain density and strength.
During the animal feed pellet machine pelleting process, the protein and sugar in the feed become pellets when heated, and the starch is partially gelatinized. The animal feed pellet machine adopts compression pelleting which uses roller and dies to compress the powder into pellet shape.

Why animal feed pellet machine is so important to pellet quality? There are many factors that affect the quality of pellets, the most important ones are formula, powder size, conditioning, roller and die properties and cooling. Among them, the influence of conditioning on the quality of pellets accounts for about 20%, and the influence of the working characteristics of the press die on the quality of pellets accounts for about 15%.
These two elements are directly determined by the animal feed pellet mill. Even if the formula has the greatest impact on pellet quality, accounting for about 40%, as a feed processing equipment, the feed pelletizer is undoubtedly the most critical. Then, how does the animal feed pellet machine affect the pellets quality? We will explain in detail below:
01
Conditioning of animal feed pellets
Conditioning is a process in which the powder is fully contacted and stirred with a small amount of steam in the conditioner of the granulator. The role of conditioning is:
The conditioning treatment is conducive to the gelatinization of starch, the digestion and absorption rate of feed, the improvement of pellet quality, the increase of output, the reduction of energy consumption, the reduction of the wear of the die and the roller, and the improvement of their service life.
02
The roller and ring die properties of the animal feed pellet machine
The influence of the working characteristics of the die on the quality of the pellets accounts for about 15%. Among them, the length to diameter ratio of the die hole is the main factor, and other factors such as the linear speed of the die, the gap between the die rolls, and the size of the output also have a certain influence. When the length to diameter ratio is large, the material stays in the die hole for a long time, and the pressure is also large, so the hardness of the pellets is low.
Different types of pellet feed have different requirements for the length to diameter ratio. For example, the length to diameter ratio of livestock and poultry feed is generally 8-10, aquatic feed is 14-16, and shrimp feed is 20 or more. The linear speed of the die has been determined during the design of the animal feed pellet granulator and generally cannot be changed at will.
The gap between the pressure die and the pressure roller should be adjusted properly, generally between 0.1-0.2mm. If the gap is too small, there will be friction between the pressure die and the pressure roller, which will accelerate the wear of the pressure die and the pressure roller. However, if the gap is too large, the output will be reduced, and even the particles will not be able to be pressed.
The output size will affect the residence time of the material in the die hole, and the pellet quality will be better when the output is low. So sometimes in order to ensure quality, don't pursue output too much.
03
Formulation
The animal feed formula has the greatest impact on the pellet quality, accounting for about 40%. This is due to the comprehensive physical properties of various feed making raw materials. Some raw materials are easy to make granules, but some are difficult to make granules (mineral salt, sand, etc.). Therefore, everyone must have a clear understanding of the influence of the formula on the quality of the pellets.
Here is a practical example. The pellet quality of a certain feed factory's pellet feed has been poor. The formula technicians believe that their formula nutrition is appropriate, and the poor pellet quality has nothing to do with them.
The technicians in the workshop took some measures, and the quality of the pellets was not ideal. After explaining the truth to them, the formulation technicians made corresponding changes to the formula, and the quality of the pellets was immediately improved.
04
Powder particle size
The influence of powder particle size on animal feed pellet quality is about 20%. If the particle size is too coarse, the quality of the pellets will not be good.
The inclusion of particles in the powder will also affect the quality of the pellets. According to experience, the powder content distribution of general livestock and poultry pellet feed as follows:
The fine material with a small particle size can fill the gaps between the pellets with a larger particle size to improve the quality of the pellets. However, if the pellet diameter required to be produced is smaller, the particle size of the powder is required to be finer.
05
RICHI Feed Mill Definition
The effect of cooling on pellet quality is about 5%. The quality of the cooling effect will have an impact on whether the pellets meet the cooling requirements (reduction and precipitation), and whether there are cracks on the surface.
The raw materials required for animal feed production mainly include cereals, proteins, fats, minerals, etc.
The raw materials required for feed production mainly include cereals, proteins, fats, minerals, etc. These raw materials contain most of the nutrients needed for animal growth and development.
Therefore, selecting appropriate feed ingredients can ensure the healthy development of animals and improve breeding efficiency.
The animal feed pellet machine plays a vital role in livestock and poultry breeding, and its impact on feed processing and feed quality cannot be ignored. The following is a discussion on some aspects of the importance of feed pellet machines in livestock and poultry breeding:
To sum up, the animal feed pellet manufacturing machine is of great significance in livestock and poultry breeding. It can improve feed utilization, improve feed taste, reduce dust and noise, improve feed quality and stability, reduce feed waste and environmental pollution, and facilitate storage and transportation.
Therefore, the reasonable selection and use of animal feed pellet machines in livestock and poultry breeding is of great significance to improving production efficiency and economic benefits.
